People who stood out for me last night.
The Good:
Hawk- Made a couple of really nice stops, looked stout against the run.
Sims- Like Hawk blew up a couple of run plays, he definitely is the run stuffer we missed since he left.
Dawson- Fast, good instincts, solid tackling. The hype after his draft selection seems to be true.
Peerman- I saw a guy out there who makes yards. He is solid, good on ST, why would we cut him? Consistency is hard to come by in the league, especially as a backup player.
Little- Has to make the team. He was always a talent with the Browns but just far too inconsistent. He hasn't shown any of this this year. Having him as the 4th/5th WR on the roster is somewhat of a steal.
Carter- Continued his good pre-season. Will be a very useful passrusher this year, has to make the team.
Hunt- He made the Harris interception by driving his man back into the QB forcing him to make an off balance hop pass. He is far too much of a physical talent to give up on this year. I think he is still shaking off the rust. Mid season he should be ready to wreak havoc.
The Bad
Bodine- Considering he is our starting centre he looked one of the worst lineman out there. Seems to have lost some upper body strength and his footwork is getting lazy. He really needs to sort it out, otherwise we may have a situation on our hands.
Tate- I don't hate him like others, but I think we have seen his ceiling. He is a very average player. He is a solid returner, but I don't think that should be enough. He had a good game, but you can tell that he would struggle in getting separation against a better calibre of player.
Backup o-line apart from Winston- They struggled all night. Obviously when so many inexperienced players all start at once the overall protection looks worse, culmination of errors. That being said, should two of our starters go down, I do not feel as confident in the depth as I have in previous seasons.
