Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

I think Espy makes the team. He was an all SEC special teamer and I'm starting to see his name getting mentioned more and more. I'm not sure about Havner but at least he should make the practice squad?

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

I've heard multiple people, including Brandon Lloyd single out Mike Espy's performance this week. Still, I think it will take a lot for him to make the team.

I don't know how in the world that would happen. First off, Gibbs would have to keep 6 WRs, which not likely at all given his history.

If Espy makes it, it means that two of these three get the axe:

David Patten, James Thrash, Taylor Jacobs

I don't see it. 0.000% chance.

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

I like Havner's chances though. It's him vs Kevin Simon in my eyes. Either way, they'll both be around as members of the 53-man roster or members of the practice squad.

Of course, if he does make it he'll have as many or more YPC as Santana Moss. Ain't that right Schneed?

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

It's my long shot prediction I guess. If they keep six I know he can make it because Jacobs is outta here and as much as we all like Thrash I don't think he is a complete lock to make the team. Maybe he is.

LOL

Indeed.

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

Kinda hard to make judgements about anyone since they haven't even played one preseason game.

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

espy might make the PS, but i'd give him a 0% chance at the actual roster unless patten goes on IR in the next two weeks.

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

if he goes on ir for a viral infection, we might as well kiss his ass good bye

You rang?

What, did Patten go on Summer vacation with Mike Vick?

Brud takes the 3-0 pitch and....there's a long fly ball hit deep!

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

Havner's chances might be better as of now, since Lindsey has already said that McCune is not where they want him at this point.

If he has a viral infection, I don't think ANYONE is going to want to kiss his ass. Not even Michael Vick.

Speaking of that, did you see that quote in the Washington Post?

"He's not where we want him," Lindsey said. "Robert turned out to be a good special teams players last year, and if you're a backup linebacker here we expect you to be good in that area. But we expect him to rise this year when he's playing middle linebacker. And right now, I don't see him where we want him, [B]and I'm not taking the blame for that[/B]."

I wonder why he felt the need to basically say "ain't my fault he can't play"

maybe not going the extra mile, studying film and doing the things needed to become a playa. couldnt resist

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

This is from B. Lloyd's latest blog entry:

"Here are some rookies and first-year guys I'm going to keep an eye on: Mike Espy (No. 11), Jesse Lumsden (No. 37), Rocky McIntosh (No. 52), Dimitri Patterson (No. 34), John Eubanks (No. 31). These guys are having an awesome camp, and I look forward to seeing their improvement."

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

dale has called out LBs publicly before. i'm not really sure what his deal is, but i don't think you're supposed to be that honest when guys aren't doing well.

i REALLY like lloyds journal thing. whoever thought of that, it was a great idea.

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

Lloyd's journal is awesome. As for Lindsey, it's almost like someone has been blaming him. I got the feeling like someone behind closed doors, Williams maybe, was like "Dale, you've got to do a better job teaching McCune." And he's thinking "I've done enough"

I don't know, maybe I'm reading too much into it

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

I would like to see Espy and Lumsden make the team or atleast the PS as of now. I am saying this on the dawn the pre-season games, and that thought could change once they play pre-season. But as of now I wouldnt mind seeing them on the team...

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

Oh, and Reed Doughty(SP) too!!!

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

I noticed on the depth chart my main man Ataveus Cash Rules Everything Around Me is listed as the starting punt returner

Re: Mike Espy/Spencer Havner
 

yeah, maybe for the practice squad. no way randle el doesnt handle that job. is betts going to be the kick off returner?
