Preseason Scrubs

We all know that we usually have the same guys come back and try to desperately make this team. Anyone think that some of them may have a chance this year. A few to mention; Rufus Brown/ CB, Jonathan Combs/ RB, Brock Forsey/ RB, Ron Warner/ DE (CFL at this moment in time), Jimmy Farris/ WR and there are several more. I would be delighted to hear some inputs on this.

Re: Preseason Scrubs

I thought Rufus Brown was gone. Christian Morton or Dimitri Patterson might step up at DB or one of those Canadian RBs they drafted, Lumsden or Carter.

They always cut Rufus Brown but he finds a way to get into training camp.

Is He a WR or a TE? If he is a WR then he won't make this team. Too much invested in WR's

He's a WR. And I'm thinking the same thing you are. There isn't room for him here. The guy I'm really keeping an eye on is K Tyler Jones. He could knock Hall out if he does well this summer

Re: Preseason Scrubs

They obviously saw something in Dmitri and Christian last year as both were in games at key times late. Not so much Dmitri I guess. He mopped up against that one team I can't remember what they're called. Ft. Worth or Oak Cliff or something.
I think experience will largely win out in this camp. I think Gibbs and Williams know who their guys are at this point and it's just a matter of getting them ready to go.
Special teams will be interesting with kicker and punter.

Yup. So far he's 5/5 on PATs and 2/2 on FGs. Long of 32

Re: Preseason Scrubs

Brock Forsey cost me $500.00 bucks with a meaningless touchdown at the end of the Humanitarian Bowl vs Iowa St.

Cut his a$$!

Also that Canadian RB Lumsden should be a good ST guy and a back up FB. He isn't an NFL back, but he is a football player.

Well we obviously need a kicker with some strength, so hopefully he pushes Hall. I think if he was to beat out Hall we would get a little bit of Cap relief also even though i don't think were in bad shape as of this moment.

He isn't faster and Thrash has been a special teams leader two years now. Plus he is a better receiver. Farris is no better than a 5th WR in the NFL while Thrash at worst is a four.

That wouldn't suprise me a bit. Hall has trouble with kickoffs reaching the 15-20 yard line. Plus, his accuracy just isn't what it was when he came out of NY.

Yeah, I don't get the love affair some people have over Jimmy Farris.

He's training camp fodder folks. The only reason he saw action last season was that the team was practically roaming the streets of D.C. for wideouts. If he makes it as a 5th wide receiver for any team this season I'll be shocked. And remember, Cliff Russell was fast too.
