Quote:So the guys listed as not playing all look like virtual roster locks...except CB Peyton Thompson. Is that a sign that he's won the fifth corner job, maybe?

 

Or could it have just been a typo. Demetrius McCray is not listed as having sat the game out, and it seems odd that every other starter would sit it out while he played.
 

Peyton Thompson missed the game with a hamstring injury. McCray played a little simply because the Jaguars were tapped out at CB. I'm still not convinced that Josh Evans and Rashaad Reynolds are all good in coverage, but I do think they both made the roster as the last two dbs.


 

Evans situation may depend on Loston's injury status, but he was making some nice hits tonight and was solid tacking his guy if nothing else.
Reynolds is a ST standout and finished the game with six tackles.


 

Meanwhile, Marshall has only proven that he needs a lot, and I mean a whole lot, of work before he's anywhere near ready and I'm no longer even worried that someone might claim him off the PS. Harris I just keep seeing getting beat all preseason, and I just don't think he's got it.


 

At LB I was really impressed with Armbrister and Lotulelei, but there looks to be only two OLB spots left between them and LaRoy Reynolds who was out with a knee injury. Do we put LaRoy on IR and keep these two? Or put one of the three on the PS, and if so which one? I'd imagine they would keep LaRoy and Armbrister with Lotulelei qualifying under the new rule that you can keep two PS players with two accrued seasons.


 

On the DL I'm very curious about Ziggy Hood's injury status. As I mentioned at the start of this thread, I've been thinking they need to make a choice between Ziggy and standout OG Tyler Shatley for the final roster spot assumign they hang onto Branch. Now, however, it appears that Neal Sterling has entered the mix. I still think Bryan Walters has secured the #5 WR position, and even more so with his performance today, but Sterling looks like he'd be a great #6 WR or #5 TE behind Nic Jacobs. So presuming they end up with two spots remaining between Hood, Branch, Shatley and Sterling, which two do they keep?
