DJ has not looked good. As a group, our DB's and LB's have missed a lot of tackles this preseason. A couple of times, they were just plain run over in the hole. That's a bit worrisome.

Also, our OL reserves have looked like pure trash. I truly feared a serious injury to Colt McCoy behind that group. At least, we know that Nseke can play. It is also a near certainty that they'll keep the rookie tackle even though he has a long way to go. Beyond that, I won't miss anyone they decide to cut. I'm hoping we'll pick up a decent, experienced interior OL when teams make their final roster cuts.

OL depth is an issue. I've watched a bit of Jordan Mailata during the preseason, he's raw, but man his physical abilities make up for it big time! He also seems to be putting in a lot of work: he started learning the rudiments of football a few months ago and he already has a solid kick step!

We've shown interest in him, so while the Eagles are more and more likely to keep him in the 53, if they don't I hope we keep him up! He's learning to play tackle but he's a freak of nature so I guess you could line him up anywhere...

In any case I do hope our FO is watching tape on back ups OL...
