As I said earlier, I'll be pissed if we keep MTV on the roster instead of Harrison.

Harrison looks to have some serious potential.

Meanwhile, Teveseau is constantly getting pushed around and blown off the line every time I watch him.

I'll be equally pissed if they don't find a roster spot for Jay Richardson.

I agree

Guys like Conner, Vlad and Schilens shouldn't be taking away roster spots from guys who actually deserve to be on the team.

That's Rex's way. Loyalty before talent.

Well, Vlad and Schillens IMO should be gone, no doubt about it. But I'm little hesitant to cut bait with Conner, he throws blocks like a freight train. I love that in a player.

Vlad won't be gone. I think Conner's time is over.

Rex would be stupid to let Richardson go. He's been killing it every pre season game.

I don't care if Conner can take a guys head off if he's going to completely whiff on every other blocking assignment and is totally useless as a receiver and in short yardage situations.

Conner's blocked nobody since Hard Knocks. He's useless.

Like I said, he throws blocks like a freight train. I love that in a player. I'm also well aware of his penchant for missing blocks. I just think maybe Rex should give him a little longer to catch on. I'm also not exactly sold on what we have to take Conner's FB role.

Just because YOU love a certain trait in a player doesn't mean he deserves to make the team. This is his third year, how much more time do you wanna give him? He's a fullback who can't block and can't catch. Yeah, he's real useful.

Whatever. Sarcasm aside, WHO is suitable to take the role? Because I don't like anyone I'm seeing.

Unfortunately, I don't get paid to make those decisions. However, Baker was perfect for the role. Shame he had to get hurt.

I assume Tannenbaum will be scouring the waiver wire.

Below you will find Schillens stat line this preseason:



If that is worthy of a roster spot, then by all means the guy has earned.

Well, Baker is exactly who I was thinking of also. Unfortunately, he's got a severed ACL and is no longer with us. So the next thing becomes who can we possibly justify is better than Conner. As horrible as he's been, where are all the options? I mean we can't exactly without a FB. Maybe an expanded role for Tebow? Hell, I would be all for that. Not sure the CS would agree though.

I think Conner could make it just because there's no one behind him. We'll just have to see what Tanny has in store tomorrow, when roster cut downs are due.
