On offence using it on Grant is such a waste and lame...as he rarely takes reps on offence, and even so...If he is in it's pretty obvious he's in on the play Also not sure why we feel the need right now for that extra O-lineman when we are lean as hell in some spots, and could use some roster flex....once again...Bizzare roster management That being said best DE roster all year, especially if Jeffcoat is 100% and can stay in lineup...would rather see Fox and Lawson as the defacto starting tackles....see what he has in a heavy workload...we know what Walker brings...then if they choose to dress only one going forward pick the best Yeah they could throw Lawson out for the first snap as a starter with Jeffcoat as the nationalized guy and then just rotate as usual really. I think if Demski can't play they'll have to roster Murphy. Schmekel would be the other option. Not sure they'd dress 8 OL. Hallett is another guy that can take D reps, he started a bunch last year. I wondered if they might drop Alexander in at SAM. If Kramdi is out it will be a mess because they don't have another Canadian DB/LB type around and healthy.

The Montrael run game scares me more than their passing game. I also think the extra O-lineman is in for more run blocking on our side. I almost get the feeling this game will be decided by who can run the ball the best. Noeller and Tracker 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 It seems to be a rule of thumb that whenever major changes are made to a starting lineup, that team struggles. Its not about the quality of the new pieces, but more about the coordination of those pieces with the existing ones. Fajardo does have the odd good game, so this is not going to be a "gimme" game.

K-Shack Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 I find it comical that we still have Thomas also listed with an OL number despite rostering 7 OL. As for listing Jeffcoat or Jefferson as the Designated National -- I'm not sure how that rule works. I believe it involves a snap count of 23, but do they only track snaps where the Designated National comes in for a Canadian, or do they track all snaps that player plays? If it's the latter, that could be the rationale for not using it on one of the Jeffs. I wonder how many snaps Grant takes per game factoring in KO and punt returns.

Booch Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) they have 23 snaps as a Canadian...So say WJ is the national....he can play 23 snaps in place of Thomas or Lawson so we can sub in an import for them...or any other declared starting Canadian on the defense if we declare more than 1 Edited June 30, 2023 by Booch K-Shack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
