Reddrummer Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 to prove my point i alos like the WR mike espy, hes been looking really good in camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegunN Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I, personally, don't think that Espy will make it. We are TOO dep at WR as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddrummer Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 ya, we r kinda deep at WR, but taylor jacobs is worthless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 There are several guys I'm pulling for aside from Lumsden. Robert Johnson, Reed Doughty, Mike Espy, Kevin Simon, Kedric Golston and the two O-Linemen from San Diego St. I would think a few of these guys could end up on the practice squad.

bigyim Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Hopefully, Espy will stick on the practice squad & be ready to contribute next year. I hope that either Golston or Montgomery will give us depth at the DT spot, and I like to see havner make it. Other than that, not too many roster spots are open.

dxtrmanlee Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Havner, Ortega, Espy, Bramlet are guys that I just want to see do well regardless of whether they have a legit shot or not. And Although Casey has no shot this year of making the team, he could impress enough to get picked up elsewhere as a number 3 or try and replace collins next year after his knowledge with the O isn't AS neccessary as it is this year. I think the purpose of the thread isnt to downplay people's chances of making the team, it says LONGSHOT in the title, its just who are YOU rooting for to have a great camp and pre-season.

bleach14 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 robert johnson just because of his size and brute strength and mike espy, hopefully we keep espy on the practice squad this kid looks like he could be a decent 4 or 5 wr if someone goes down.

shakazullo Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Joe Sykes! Everytime I looked up during the scrimmage he was getting pressure on the qb. He has a good first step and can turn the corner. I read about him when they signed him and it said that he had all the tools but needed coaching to bring it out of him. If anyone can get a guy to perform over his head it is Gregg Williams. Joe Sykes beat Jon Jansen three straight plays at one point in camp. Watch for him to make the team coming out of camp. Maybe unseating Demetric Evans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe unseating Demetric Evans. I think that was a great and refreshing look at a postion. With Wynn getting older, we need a guy as a backup to step up. Evans must improve or a guy like Sykes will unseat him and make the final roster. Evans has shown flashes. But your point is this is a position worth watching, whereas many others are uncontested.

It would be neat if Lumsden made it as well. I like Espy as well. Jacobs needs to be gone imo and Espy would be a good replacement . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkosaurus Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 ya, we r kinda deep at WR, but taylor jacobs is worthless I agree that Taylor is of little value and I think I'd make the investment in Espy before desperately trying to get my investment out of TJ. And while I *love* James Thrash, he's no spring chicken and we do need to think of the future...I think it would be unwise not to find a way to keep Espy around...I wish the practice squad wasn't so easily raided.... And yeah...I'm on the Jesse bandwagon too...that kid looks sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
