Unless Justin Davis has proven that he can catch out of the backfield and pickup all the protections, I can't see him making the roster over Brown.

In preseason 2017, Davis had 10 catches for 84 yds. So he’s proven himself a bit in that area.

To my eye, Brown doesn’t look as sharp as last year, the lost weight didn’t help.

If not for the hamstring injury, Davis had a shot to unseat Brown, IMHO.

Obviously Rams saw enough potential in Davis that they didn’t want to risk losing him. After the fumble-yips of his first 2017 game, Davis has looked impressive.

Oh, and Kelly has looked awesome, as soon as he can be counted in for protections, he’s our #2 RB.

Brown looked very ineffective this preseason. I am so impressed with Kelley that I am not concerned with the need for Brown as last season. Davis when given the opportunity to run in both pre seasons has been very effective. I see no big issue with going with Davis and Kelley as our top two back ups to Gurley. I see a big difference in Davis's pass blocking and ball control.

These guys all worked hard for their dream of playing in the NFL. It is easy to just see them as a commodity.

But for many of these guys, they have worn the horns, and for many, any helmet, for the last time. I thank them for their hard work, and dedicate this perfect song of encouragement to them...

:cheers:

I'm a bit surprised about Price getting cut....saw him making plays... as much as you'd want Hemmingway to make it....I saw some drops this preseason

Mundt just killed it when given a chance. He will sky and fight for the ball. Practice squad guy makes the grade.

Any of the rookies that were UDFA make the team?

Don't believe it, which would be a first when compared to recent years.

Now Mundt and Isaiah Johnson were UDFA's last year, although I believe Johnson was from Detroit... he may even been from 16'.

I guess it's a sign the roster is tougher to crack. Although with so many draft picks that made it, that makes it tough as well.

Well said.
They are a commodity however.
It has to be very tough for guy that are almost there.
Neary comes to mind. He was not terrible at C in his start vs SF.
I think he was in a camp two years before his two years with the Rams. He has earned some checks, although, not the big NFL money. He is almost there. He can play and make some nice plays. But then, he gives up leverage on a play and it gets blown up. He is a step late on a play. Then is solid for another 3 or 4.
He is probably physically maxed out to compete at this level. A guy who probably dominated at every level from pop Warner on gets to the NFL and is fighting like hell to be a back of roster guy. He is almost there but is probably at his max. Maxed out in strength and athleticism and size. I feel badly for that kind of guy. 95% there to being a guy who can stick on a roster.

He would have made it if they had not moved Easly to OLB. I was surprised they kept Hill over Hatfield.

I'm not, have a feeling Hill is better on game day. Hatfield great kid, but he reminds me of Coty Sensabaugh, Hatfield seems to just get beaten and every time Hatfield was in the game, his guy always caught a TD pass.

All things being equal between those two, Hill has an inch of height and about 15 pounds on Hatfield.

Hill has played better in real NFL games.... I like Hattfield...really pull for him.... I remember seeing him play up close in High School.... but Hill is a better all around corner at this point

I never relish in a player being cut but I did NOT want to ever see Hatfield on the field again - at least not wearing the Horns. This also tells us that this year’s back-ups > last year.

There was an interesting blurb on NFL.com how the new kicking rules basically eliminate offensive linemen on kick returns or the need for big bodies in general. I wonder if that will be a factor in how many Olinemen we actually keep. 8 still feels light but maybe that will be the number.
