2023 Roster Predictions Thread...

[Genghis Khan]

Who?

Ronald Jones. He looks to be this year's James Washington.

 

[Bill Shatner]

don’t need a fourth TE or a 6th safety. Keep Cox.

Went heavy at S because a lot of the time they use 3 on the field at the same time. Traditional LB is a dying breed imo. Replaced by hybrid type safeties.

 

[ZeroClub]

Luepke seems like a natural fit for McCarthy's scheme. It'd be short-sighted not to work him in. He adds more than McKeon.

 

[boozeman]

Does Jones have a place on the roster or no? I'm thinking no. Not worth waiting for.

There would be no point.

Pretty much.

Yeah but McKeon has demonstrated the ability to block.

Ronald Jones. He looks to be this year's James Washington.

Eh he doesn't count until like week 3, I don't worry about it until then.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

So has Ferguson, Poonmaker and Luepke. How many blocking TEs you need at once?

Ronald Jones. He looks to be this year's James Washington.

Thanks. I forgot about him already. Looked through the unofficial depth chart and he wasn’t on it.

He is suspended for 2 games, so he doesn't count until week 3. Until then it's like he isn't here.

I thought he had to be on the initial 53 first though.

 

[NoDak]

I thought he had to be on the initial 53 first though.

If that's the case, just cut his ass now.

 

[ZeroClub]

Luepke had 58 rushing yards and averaged 5.8 per carry. He caught 5 passes for 60 yards and one touchdown. He blocked well too.

He's not a flashy player, but I'd take those numbers from a role player any day.

 

[boozeman]

All of the talk about Luepke, he might be the one who would get snatched up if waived.

So, what's the difference between a "pressure" and a "hurry"?

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I meant to mention that, does Sam's dumbassery play into keeping Land? Jerry said he didn't expect Sam to get suspended, but is that realistic?

So, what's the difference between a "pressure" and a "hurry"?

It all depends on the service.

The way I understand it, a hurry is where the passer is forced to throw the ball earlier than intended or chased out of the pocket. If this happens and the defensive player is a yard or so away from them, they record one. A pressure could be a combination of sacks, hurries and hits on the QB.

In other words, is it a pretend set of stats that really are too subjective to be taken all that seriously.

That is a legitimate point.

This is why I asked. Seems like the same thing to me.
