If they've finally got a guy that can realistically back up 4/5 OL positions and not be a total disaster if he has to make a few starts that would be tremendous. Crucial, even. We can't expect all 5 starters to never miss a game, that's just not realistic.

Gesicki looks like a big 4th down and RedZone weapon.. Can he block suffiently in the run game? Nope, not even a little. He can get in the way of a defender but can't move anyone back. He's famously uninterested in blocking.

August 25, 2024Aug 25 comment_1758352 I really hope DJ Ivey somehow makes the 53, as I think he's good enough to start as a CB in this league and has worked hard to come back from last year's injury. I think CB is the deepest position on the entire team and I would keep 6 so that Ivey makes it.
August 25, 2024Aug 25 comment_1758354 So what about punter? If Robbins is still ouchy opening day do they IR him and keep Rehkow? Keep Rehkow regardless? If Robbins ouchy Inactive and let Money Mac do double duty?
August 25, 2024Aug 25 comment_1758356 Elsewhere Hobson/talk of looking for another running back. What's wrong with the ones we have? Who would go to make room? Or would someone from another position go to make room? Personally, I would stand pat.

With the huge line upfront they can get lost in the cracks and seams . Take Trayveon .5'8 210.. That's alot of force as is Moss and Brown..

Anderson and All have recovered from theirs because they happened earlier in the fall last year. No question that Ivey isn't ready to return to practice. It will take him longer to get back on the field.
