Or.... or.... or... maybe since Hudson has not been able to stick on a roster anywhere in the NFL prior to this season, it is that Pre-Season and 9 weeks of regular tutelage under James Casey that has him playing as well as he is now. Because he sure hasn't shown it in the 3 years prior to this.

Billings had some great college tape and has made himself a career far more worthy then any mocking would insinuate.

He also made imho 2 rosters based solely off potential


With all that said I’d a taken him in a second

All we need is a guy to take on double team blocks and not get pushed back

They don’t even gotta make the play themselves

The Chargers just cut team captain and starter DT Sebastian Joseph-Day

Davis was called up today. Mellow

Long term Bell may turn out to be better but for the next couple of weeks I think bringing Davis up is a good idea.  He has been playing in Lou's defense so you would think that may be a better call than to put someone out there you just brought in.
