Jameill Showers' time?

[gimmesix]

It might be more indicative of not having good depth at safety, but going back and taking a closer look at the defense, Showers probably played better than most of the safeties we put out there Thursday. He also played extensively on special teams.

I figure we're keeping four safeties this year because of a lack of quality depth at the position relative to others. Woods, Heath and Frazier are pretty much locks. I figure someone like Kam Kelly or Tyree Robinson would take the last spot, but I'd give Showers the leg up right now. Plenty of time for that to change, though.

I said as much yesterday. Jameill Showers played pretty good on Thursday. Better than the other backups.

Rooting for the kid. Nobody epitomes working for your dream harder than this kid. Hopefully he can make it 3 years on an NFL roster and lock in a pension.

Against whom?

 

[Typhus]

radical change of position,, so we shall see. Plenty of time for rain.

Against whom?

Maybe he can become a core special teamer, would make it easier to work Kavon Frazier into the safety rotation

If he proves to be good enough then sign me up. We need all the quality at safety we can get. We should get a good long look in preseason.

Against whom?

The same players as the other backup safeties he's competing against?

I agree, he looked like he knew what he was doing out there. Eager to see him in Game 2.

It is, but he’s been working on the conversion for a few years now, so maybe there’s a chance.

 

[superonyx]

I didn’t realize he was still on the team.

They must have told him something to get him to keep trying. I imagine if I was cut after camp by the same team twice I would try a different team the next year.

I like his heart.

Jameil Showers has proven he can excel when he can out-athlete people. That's why he makes such a great special teamer. He just has to run to the ball. I don't think he has much shot at being a starter anywhere though.

Id love to see this guy make the team.

Yeah, time for Showers to hit the showers.

It would be nice if he's this generation's Charlie Waters - a QB, turned receiver, turned corner, turned Pro-Bowl safety.

He played well ... hopefully all his hard work pays off with a roster spot...

Time for his chance to be worthy or hit the road jack,, and don't come back no more no more, hit the road jack,, and don't come back no more.

These two posts go well together.

 

[zerofill]

He will probably get a roster spot if our depth stays the same.
