Re: Preseason Game 3: Big Roster Battles
Overall, I think of all defensive positions, DT and S are the most locked down. Backup CB slots are the most heated between Kevin Barnes, Byron Westbrook, and Justin Tryon. I don't see Barnes not making the team though, not after using a third round pick. Hell, look at the awful preseason Tryon had last year, but he was a 4th rounder so he got the benefit. I just don't see hardly any spotts fro the two rookie linebackers.

Re: Preseason Game 3: Big Roster Battles
Great work. The Skins defense looks strongest to me at safety and defensive tackle. That's good because Haynesworth hasn't played a full season since his rookie year. If he's spelled often enough, he may be less tempted to take plays off. An injury at defensive end could be dicey and other than Blades, I'm not keen on any of our backup linebackers. All in all, though, looks like a stronger defense than what we had last year.
I'm a Kevin Barnes fan and I think he'll be a big contributor in 2010 and beyond.

No way Fincher makes the roster over Cody Glenn

Re: Preseason Game 3: Big Roster Battles
I would too. Fincher was a stud on special teams last year, is a veteran, and can step in should there be injuries at LB and play effectively. You trust Cody Glenn stepping in? Not sure I do.

Re: Preseason Game 3: Big Roster Battles
I'm not a huge fan of Fincher from scrimmage [particularly in pass coverage], but he's good on special teams and backup linebackers play well on special teams or they go into a different line of work.

Re: Preseason Game 3: Big Roster Battles
I'm feeling out on the limbish -- I second BHA -- Glenn stays, Fincher walks. Just a gut feeling.
