Just going to leave this here..

If Howell was on the cowboys the national media would be going insane over him.

He’s got a big time potential, dude looks like Russell Wilson out there!

CB (5) Wj3, Fuller, St juste, Elder, Johnson
S (6) Curl, McCain, Forrest, Butler, Reaves, Parker

24 Defense

Young and Larsen are on PUP

Robinson may have to be count against initial 53 then designated and moved to open up roster spot.

DT Bada is an international pathway player ... and doesnt count towards the 53? Can be protected stashed on PS? Not sure.

--------------

CB depth after our 3 starters falls off real bad. NEED A VET CORNER asap.

LB - i think we only have 2 NFL caliber players, NEED A VET LB asap.

Kicker - Slye worries me.

TE - will probably go w 4 given injuries limited participation by our top 3.

Re: Commanders Regular Season Thread vol 1
 

IPP Players don't count during the offseason but would if they make the 53. As I understand it you can put a guy on NFI at anytime, not required to wait until after 53 cutdown. That tends to be the case with IR guys, unless you are shutting them down for the season

I hope so, that would make sense.

Agree about CB, LB, and TE. I'm OK with Slye.

What happened on Joey Slye’s miss? Ron is clear: He overkicked it. Believes that’s a constant with Slye; his first kick is often overkicked because he gets “so frickin excited” according to Rivera. Wants Joey to kick with more smoothness

I hope so. But Im at like a 4/10 worried. if we cant trust him on anything 50 and longer ... does RR go for it more?

idk .. im a bit worried. Miss 48 yarder, other team gets the ball in great position and we struggle to score points anyway.

The Washington Commanders have cut safety Steven Parker, per source. Signed during camp and had a chance to stick.

The #Lions are releasing former first-round pick LB Jarrad Davis, source said. A bit of a surprise.


A candidate for us?

Every FA LB should be a candidate for us.

I gotta imagine he is better than Hudson and Mayo

Joe Schobert was released by the Broncos -- had 120 tackles last year.

I'm almost against bringing a proven vet LB now. It should've been made 6 months ago. This staff thought it was ok not to. Prove it to us now.

Don't cut off your nose to spite your face. We're trying to win games here. If they improve the team, you bring them in.

For sure. But I'm not in charge, so I'll allow myself to be tongue in cheek if and when they do, cuz it should've been done earlier and even an experienced vet would have benefited from a full TC to learn the defense... Better late than never I guess.

You're preaching to the choir somewhat, judging by the messages on here I think we mostly all agree that you are absolutely right. Yes their seemingly stubborn insistence through the whole off season that they are happy with what they have is immensely frustrating for all of us (but continue to vent if you need to :))
