| Stigma (8/8/2008)
I was never as high on Cotrone as others. I could see how he was a devastating blocker who excelled in moving to the 2nd level and blocking LBers. Still, in my mind he did not exhibit the talent that Charles David exhibits as an H-Back.Opinions vary. I had the exact opposite feeling.

| Great job this year, Tim. Yours are always the most detailed reports available for Jags training camp.
That's the first time I've heard Sensabaugh given the edge as starter. I don't really care who gets the job if they perform, but I'll remember where I heard it first.
Go, Jags. Let's cheer for our D-ends to put on a show tomorrow to turn up the pressure a bit on Harvey. Is Williams (DC) the type to use his blitzing in preseason games?

| I loved the report, however I think there was one thing missing that it really needs.
What about some indication of the QB position. From reading everything I can, it appears that DG is ahead of where he was last year in training camp and seems poised to have a good year, hopefully better than last.
What about Cleo Lemon? Is he showing improvement in camp? Can he get the job done if DG goes out for 3-4 weeks?
Thanks,
M |

| | Good read I guess i'm the one who has to bring up the repeated paragraph though? the one that starts with "After spending the majority .." is like paragraph 3 and it's repeated a few paragraphs down..

Great report FBT. Do you think there will be room on this roster for Charles Davis? Also, it seems like every off-season/preseason Wyche steps up his game, barring any injuries do you think he makes this roster and if he does do you think he will get playing time? Lastly, do you see Pettway making the roster because it seems like Groves could be used in the same role and I would rather keep Wyche.Charles Davis is actually one of the more entertaining stories of training camp. I didn't figure him for the roster initially, but after watching this guy in training camp, I think we may have found a third TE that we will want to hang on to who isn't named Wrighster. Based on how he catches the football, I think Koetter will find a way to work him into the playbook. Let's see what happens with Pettway/Wyche in the preseason. Wyche has had the better camp overall, but the cream rises to the top when the hitting goes live. This guy intrigues me as well. Given his size I'm compelled to think he's probably a good blocker. If indeed that is the case, then there's no need for a guy like Angulo who's virtually worthless in the passing game. I also think Wrighster is headed to IR yet again (possibly on the PUP at first), if not the waiver list. There's no room on the roster IMO for a chronic injury waiting to happen. Chris Brown is too small to be a legitimate TE, and Adam Bishop was already waived. So I'm starting to think the TE line-up will look like this... - Marcedes Lewis
- Greg Estandia
- Charles Davis
- Joey Zelenka (will he ever actually play a down as a TE?)
- Chris Brown or Isaac Smolko (on Practice Squad)
- George Wrighster (on PUP/IR)
Chris Brown was spending a good bit of time during camp playing fullback.

Thanks,
MThere's nothing missing, IMO. The point of my entire article was that there were 4 areas that I saw as areas where the camp battles would be most interesting. The backup QB position isn't a position battle as far as I'm concerned. Cleo Lemon is the backup. If you read the camp reports over the past 2 weeks, you'd see that Lemon has come a long way in his progression. The team would be no worse off than they were with Quinn Gray if he has to step in for Garrard. The offense would have to be adjusted, but Lemon is more than capable of holding his own if needed.

| | Say hypothetically, that Dave goes down for an estimated five weeks, Cleo is the only other QB on the roster, Quinn Gray and Todd Bouman are both available FA's. Who do we sign?

Say hypothetically, that Dave goes down for an estimated five weeks, Cleo is the only other QB on the roster, Quinn Gray and Todd Bouman are both available FA's. Who do we sign? McManus said today on his show that he felt the only reason Lemon is #2 is because of his contract, and that he feels Bouman should be the backup. That's somewhat hinted to by Vic's latest statement: "Lemon is likely to get the bulk of the playing time and the Jaguars would like for Lemon to justify his acquisition in free agency with a strong preseason performance." Gray's not coming back. Bouman may not leave if they're concerned enough about our Lemon.
