Training Camp-Vets arrive

1. Personally, I am not worried at all about the WR position. As everyone knows, I am not a huge Marqise Lee fan, but I loved what I saw in Keelan Cole and I also believe DeDe Westbrook has a lot of potential that he began to show last year as well. I also believe Chark was the best WR in the draft and I am extremely excited to see what he can do in this offense. Moncrief offers us a lot of depth as well. IMO, Cole will end up being the X receiver before the season is over.

2. The SAM position is mildly concerning. Whether Blair Brown wins the position or not, we still lack depth at all 3 LB positions. I don't think we'd lose that much by replacing Poz with brown, but IMO, Poz was a weak spot on defense, just because he lacked the athleticism and speed of the younger guys. His leadership was extremely valuable though. The main problem I have is that if any of our starters go down, we're in trouble. I really like the selection of Leon Jacobs and believe he would be a great SLB option, but if he is moved to pass rusher, it wouldn't matter. I still believe we need to add depth at LB in general.

3. Nickleback is my biggest concern. We have great starters at both CB spots and I liked Aaron Colvin a lot and I was disappointed that we let him walk. Our backups at CB are HUGE dropoffs from our starters though. I really wanted us to replace Colvin with consistent player, but IMO, D.J. is the epitome of inconsistent. Yes, he has speed, but so far in his NFL career, I see a lack of instincts and ability to shift and change directions in an instant. That is a major concern. I like bigger corners (over 5'10"), who can play press and off coverage and when you look behind our starters, it just isn't there. We filled some major holes in the off season, but I fear we created at hole at Nickle when we lost Colvin and I don't see a player on our current roster who I believe can fill that role consistently. I pray I am wrong.

4. I believe Richardson, Adams, Jacobs and Meeks all have a really good chance to make the roster and I like Lazard as will. I believe he could be really effective as a TE/WR hybrid, if the team opts to use him this way. If they strictly use him as a straight up WR, he's likely headed to the PS. I thought Richardson was probably our best pick in the draft. I'd like to see him get a chance to start at our weakest position, RG, but he could also unseat Parnell at RT. I really like that we signed Tony Adams. I was disappointed that he failed the physical after the draft and giving him this second chance could really improve our interior. It wouldn't surprise me to see Adams and Richardson as starters on our O-Line, in the next year or two. Both are really talented.

5. I'm gonna save opinion on cuts until we get a little into the preseason.
