First look at the ones in the new offense Ditto for the twos, and throw in the looks at a lot of players. Of course both sides of the ball evoke anticipation, but seeing Carr, seeing the WR's, the new blocking scheme and play calls has really gotten my attention.

 

I want to see what the line does. Would be nice to see some of our offensive formations, see who we're lining up on nickel.

Want to see Cooper do enough at FS that he earns the job while Salley's laid up. Would love to see some of the backup DBs earn the 4th CB and S jobs - Wilson, Deloatch, Strait, Garrett, there are some guys there who were good enough to be picked. I think the talent there could be very interesting.

Want to see King do well, to earn that job. I'd personally like to see Jackson do some punishing at FB, so we'll carry a real backup FB.

Hope to see Colbert do enough to give us options at WR.

I'd like to see some backups at LB shine, since Morgan shouldn't be out there, Diggs might not, and Beason shouldn't play extensively after being out there only a week. Anderson might have a last chance to get playing time, being as how Beason is a long term starter and Shaw has gotten camp praise.

Would really like to see Seward do as well as last camp/preseason, but for it to matter this time.

I think, honestly, the second stringers on O will be interesting - we've got a lot of strong depth on the 2nd line, Goings, Haynes, Shelton. Robinson's got the type speed to make future UPS drivers look like future UPS drivers. Rosario's skilled enough to get some late looks, Gaines is experienced enough to feed off some of these young kids. Carr should play into the 3rd.

 

We're really gonna need him to be improved/ready. I feel like the D will be easier to guage in in a week or three when we get Harris and Beason worked in more and find out if Morgan can withstand contact, Rucker is ready, etc. Really want to see what we've got at DE.

ST, we probably have a lot of new faces there. Coverages and returns (especially looking forward to seeing Robinson).

Anybody got an idea how many touches DW may get with the ones and should we expect to see him any with the twos?

 

doubt he plays a ton there with the 2s, nothing to really prove

 

Haynes didn't make the trip, I don't know that the new guy is going get much - Shelton could get a ton in the second half.

 

don't get hurt

I'm out of the tv area. I've got the Sopcast thing going but am going to try to rig a laptop up to the plasma. I bet it will look worse than if it were on my monitor.

 

I don't see it coming up on DirecTV ?
