Those guys have proven that they aren't any good and a couple weeks of training camp isn't going to change that. 5 years and 8 years of game sample size trumps a couple weeks of training camp that was mostly against air. We already know what they are and it's nothing special. Johnson and Camp have upside, Dorsett and Austin don't.

They weren't playing in Meyer's offense before. I agree they are probably not going to make an impact but the others won't either. Who can play special teams, who gets claimed off waivers, etc will all go into the decision.

Dorsett and Austin combined have been in 7-8 different Offenses. They weren't good in any of them. Somehow Urban's special Offense is going to change that? While it may be vanilla (going against vanilla), we got our first look at Urb's Offense in the 1st preseason game and let me tell you, it wasn't anything impressive on any level.

Absolutely, ST is going to be a huge factor in who makes the bottom 1/3 of this roster. Camp played a bunch of ST in the Browns game. Dorsett and Austin would mostly fill in as a returner on ST, but they'd be behind Agnew and Claybrooks anyways. Camp has far more upside and provides more roster ability imo. He's the type you want to keep around and try to develop. Maybe he turns into something, maybe he doesn't, but the tools are there. We already know who Dorsett and Austin are.
