Re: Darrel Young - Rising Star?

So going from that article, it looks like Keiland Williams might be the odd man out. Torrain needs to play too, because Hightower is making a case for the starting job. Who from last year's roster has the best chance to make the team?

Helu has made the team, right? What about Royster?

Helu definitely, Royster probably practice squad

To tell the truth, I like Royster better than Torrain - - someone on whom I cannot depend.

I like the rotation of Hightower, Helu and Royster. Each brings something a bit different to the game meaning the running game would have different dimensions based on which TB is in there.

With Williams getting a lot of minutes in practice at RB and Sellers at FB. I wonder if it's Hightower, Helu, and Williams and Young and Sellers at FB. Royster on the PS and Torain gone or more likely out for the first few weeks

True, put Torain on PUP?

He's not eligible for the PUP list

He would have to be on it already? Even then we would lose him for the first 6 weeks, probably not worth it.

I see something like this. I can't see them cutting Williams, he has proven his value in a few different roles. Sellers is more likely to get cut, but I see him making it for the same reasons; he can play a couple positions plus spec. teams.

Royster hasn't looked great to me, definitely PS material & Torain may have to go simply due to his injuries.
