Fuzzy's Obligatory, Reactionary, Post-Donkey Game Roster Prediction

[kTXe]

At this point, I have a few (minor) disagreements.


1. I think we only keep 2 QBs. Moore to the PS.

2. I think we keep Urban over Austin. Urban strikes me as someone who would be a very valuable backup. I believe they said during the game broadcast that he knows all of the WR positions. He has experience and good hands. Plus, with Thompson back, Austin's main value to the team as the KR is gone. Miles just doesn't impress me as a receiver.

3. Berger over Procter for back up G/C. Simply, I just think he is better. Though I admittedly haven't super-analyzed the performances of all the backup o-lineman, Procter has stood out to me in a negative manner. Berger seemed much more comfortable than him at C.

4. I think we hang on to Stephen Bowen for a total of 7 d-linemen. He strikes me as a slightly less talented version of Ratliff. Both are high motor guys that have value because they could probably every position in our 3-man front if needed.

5. I like Alan Ball over Joey Thomas. Thomas simply makes too many mistakes. I don't think that it is coincidence that when these two are in the game together, very few passes are thrown in Ball's direction. Alan hasn't stood out to me much in the first two games, which is a big compliment for a CB. Yes, he did get beat for a TD against Indy, but his coverage was excellent and simply beat by a perfect pass.

I don't know how you would describe it. Strong isn't a word I would use.

Why? Because he doesn't throw the ball as hard as he can every time. It's called touch. Romo can throw that ball as hard as anyone, I believe. But it's not as much about your arm strength when you're throwing as it is your release and the touch you put on the ball. Given the situation that your receiver is in and the timing need to make the throw, et cetera.

Overall, I think Romo has one of the best releases/touches in the league. Which is why his completion percentage bodes so well for him.

Well then he has a decision making hindrance - you don't throw a touch pass on a 10 yard out to the sideline, unless you want to the CB to touch it and take it to the house. You zip that throw.

I can see us only keeping 3 QBs on the roster. i can also see a team like KC, Atlanta, Minny or any other team with littel QB talent pcik him up.

Other than Spagnola gushing over Urban in the broadcast he has done zilch in preseason games other than cath a 6 yard pass and muff a punt. Austin excells on ST. Urabn needs to do something to unseat an incumbent.

Proctor is just stronger at the point of attack. i was worng on Berger it was Tarrullo i saw getting mauled. If we dont keep Moore i could see us keeping Berger.

Stpehn Bowen has done nothing so far this preseason. He did play well at the end of last season but with a new coaching staff that asks for linemen to do something different this does not bode well for him. If you want another DE then look to the waiver wire.

Alan Ball has done nothing. Thomas allowed a short completion and got caught on a deep move to the outside because he turned an looked for the ball too early. He had two great PDs and another tipped ball that led to an INT. If you dont like Thomas then fine but again Ball has done nothing so far.

Ive seen him throw ropes on outs. I think we are just going to have to agree to disagree because there is really no point in arguing on opinions.

There are actually factual scientific measurements that show that he has an above average NFL strength arm. Whether he uses it to its full potential on every throw is a different story.

Having said that, I'll agree to disagree as well.

If hes not on a roster by the first game of the season....

I still say that just released FA are not out of the NFL until they are not on a roster until the next season starts.
