    Don Jones? really. Adds Depth to Safety cause that's where we tackle? Active or PS roster? Who the hell is Cam Johnson on PS listed as LB (ILB or OLB any good?). We are loaded at DB & CB Farmer please quit with this & find us a legit OLB. Rant over!!

    It is simply about bringing in prospects we like. I don't think we use the PS to provide all that much depth to the main roster. That is why we see the PS churn during the season. Bring in a guy we think might be a player, watch him practice for 3-4 weeks and make a decision.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    Solid season for Blodbath.

    We've got big investments in Kruger, Mingo and Orchard ... so I guess they need to bring it.

    Don't forget we also have Armonty who is basically now a full time OLB. We're not short on numbers, just talent.

    Haden and Gipson both out this week. Perhaps that is why they went for a DB.

    I mean, when you are filling out the 53rd man on the roster spot.....positioning is fungible.

    any slight hope I have for the rest of the season for our defense is pinned on him now. If he takes over the majority of snaps now on his side, maybe at least on his side the edges can firm up and we get push against the QB.

    Could be they're planning on converting Shelton to OLB... I'm pretty sure he could set the edge.

    No tackles Ravens game, one quarter against the Jets. Collect $660,000- not a bad job if you can get it.

    YOu think? I had him moving to safety which I think is his most natural position. Gotta get him out in space imo.
