That's a spicy meatball! More change than I was expecting. Kramdi to S, I like this idea. He's a downhill guy, not a strong man-to-man cover guy. The question will be if his instincts to get into positions to make plays translates to S, and if he will continue to struggle to finish plays. Boom or bust guy at S. Either he's going to put fear into WRs and make a bunch of plays on the ball or he's gonna fail to pick up deep guys. I find Griffin to Sam and Parker to cornerback, odd. Parker was very good at sam here in the past, and Griffin is very good at picking up and carrying guys deep. I like the switch. Griffin should excel in most positions. Idk about Parker on the corner. I think he is a couple of games from running out of leash. Vaval, still, the DI KR is odd. Especially with Cobb on the roster. I like the guy, but he's drowning. He needs to sit imo. Happy Jones is on, but I don't think he will see a single defensive snap. He should get some blitz plays, though, and passing situation plays especially. 7 lbers with ayers, 4 of whom are NI, for 2 spots. That is an egregiously bad use of roster flexibility. Boy, that WR core is UGLY. Lofton at LT worries me, especially since its his first game in week 9. I like Cooley, but boy, I don't feel like Hogan will use him well. Glad Chase is in, and Zach is sitting. I'm optimistic for the D, and intrigued. I'm worried about how much of our imp roster flexibility is tied up in a few spots that won't see D/O reps. I'm really worried about the WR core, OL, and Depth. I think Corcoran at least has a chance to do something. I really worry, though, that we will continue to run flood concepts under the secondary, and the whole WR group is SLOW af. If the opposition secondary is going to be faster, they can't get gifted leverage. I'm worried the Argos will just be running downhill, making plays on our WRs/the ball.

I like most of the changes on D. Griffen at SAM, Parker at CB, J.Jones on. Not sure on Kramdi at S. He can hit but isn't the knock that his coverage skills can be lacking? Still I'm excited to see how this D looks. The offense on paper is very underwhelming. I'll echo the comments on why are we keeping Mitchell if he can't get on the roster now. I also don't see the point of adding Cooley, Peterson was fine. I mean, why not add Mitchell, don't add Cooley, take off Ball (what is the point of another ster?) and keep Peterson.

Corcoran for Case might be an upgrade. Case dropped as many as he caught. Corcoran can at least be a possession receiver, plus he allows for another American on the roster somewhere else. I like what we’ve done with the D. The more Griffin the better.

I half expect the O to dominate possession and yardage and we kick 10 field goals and win 37 to 24

Like that they are at least trying to get the D fixed. O looks rough though.

Someone wrap Demski in bubble wrap. By my count the rest of the receivers have about half of his career receptions when you combine them all together.. and half of those are Sterns

Maybe this offense can be successful with a heavy run attack and short possession game, Hit a couple deep ones to Demski or Wheatfall when they are available. Otherwise run run run with Oliveira and Cooley (and Strev if he can still run?). The short passes are Corcoran's bread and butter.

Agreed. 5.75 seems right for a shutdown 2nd pairing d man. solid deal. Shouldn’t be a problem in the future either as wife opened up a dental clinic in the peg. When the cap is 100 million in a few years (maybe) (they are projecting but economy and stuff ) 5.75 and 7.25 is gonna be normal. Lowry prob won’t get much of a raise tho. Connor will.

I mean Streveler is playing and we dressing Cooley Brady MCI Demski even sterns Cobb. I mean pretty obvious the game plan isn’t gonna be 50 yard bombs.

well that receiving group is embarrassing....the defensive changes are an ujpgrade tho.....just one more spot to purge.....our offensive depth across the board tho is worst in league and not even close Kelly would be better...maybe a game or 2 to get his sea legs.....Hopefully Kramdi is as smart as the coaches claims and plays the snot outta safety....he was an achilles heal at SAM good defensive moves tho....Other than Ball and Thomas....but steps being made 🤘

The offense looks like a gross mess. I do love the defensive changes, I think.

Wow, Still no.Mitchell with Kramdl in at safety look to Arbuckle Coxie going deep..often For those of us wanting roster changes here we are. Really highlights our lack of depth at several positions ie receiver, db and dline

That receiving group is god awful...bordering on pathetic...No Mitchell again...why we keeping him?.....we better be run run run with 2 backs on field constantly I like Parker at corner as thats where he best suited...and Finally Griffin at SAM....Thats gonna help us a ton and maybe Kramdi apparently knowing all the positions will be the field general back there we need.....With Kelly back we have a competent backup for him too Jones also finally gets to show what he is all about....unless he gets the Ayers treatment and no reps....Don't get the need for Ball tho....coulda used that spot in a better way

Yeah. I dunno. Must be not the right changes.

Why?

What a mess lol

Parker at CB, Kramdi at Safety, Griffin officially starting at SAM. Lofton at LT, Vanterpool off. Jake Kelly on, backing up at S. Corcoran starts at SB with Cobb on as backup. Jonathan Jones on to backup at WLB Dillon Mitchell moved to the PR

I don’t mind it. Kramdi at safety. Griffin starting. Jones dressing. I like what I’ve seen from Joey and nice to see Cobb get on. Not a terrible thing actually. I’m thinking we running the ball a bit on O. And Jones got on over Mitchell I suppose. Sorta. I mean. Makes sense when the D is awful. Lofton at tackle.

Corcoran backed up by Cobb is diabolical when you have D Mitchell on the practice roster... that must be new or is the official depth chart messed up? They had him on the 1-game "injury" list the first 8 weeks didn't they?

Source, please.

Let’s go Demski.

AND half of dline roster is below average.....so guess that woulda kept us better...mind you its the Canadian component that ails us the most

They’re the definition of average, and that’s coming from my sources.

Parker coming down and Kramdi moved to safety....interesting. Griffin also on.
