no real surprises. It is too early for the rookies to have earned promotions
Who backs up Hubbard on the edge between Sample and Kareem will be one thing to watch.
Scrappy 3rd year player Joe Burrow captured the starting QB job despite missing the start of training camp. Pretty inspiring story :)

I would think that to be situtional. I've been under the impression that Kareem was viewed as stronger versus the run, and Sample as better at getting pressure on the QB.
I'm a bit to see Michael Thomas as the backup SS.
He's ahead of Brandon Wilson, Tycen Anderson, and Trayvon Henderson.
I know Thomas is a veteran, but I wasn't even considering him as a possibility to make the final roster.
Looks like Brandon Wilson has lost his KR duties.
Evans is listed as the leader right now for KR duties.
Definitely wouldn't be surprised now if Wilson doesn't make the roster.
Jamar Chase over Stanley Morgan? Really?

I’m not terribly high on either one, so who knows. Kareem just stands out a tad more in my mind because of the Denver game.

Zac Taylor loves him some Michael Thomas’s.

Brandon Wilson is on the PUP list still recovering from his ACL tear from last season

Oh, didn't realize that. I thought he was back.
I do find it odd though that Wilson is listed in the defensive depth chart but not the KR/PR though?
It scares me a bit to see Prince and Adeniji as 2nd string Oline. I'm still hoping we can get an upgrade for at least one of them.
It seems our depth is getting a little better on D ? I like seeing Markus Bailey as 2nd sting Lber and hoping he's finally panning out.
There's only one guy on the entire team that doesn't have a name behind his...because it's silly to even waste that unnecessary backup spot.
Money

And Marvin loved him some Johnsons.

I had that three Johnson's and a Big Willie T-shirt from the 05-06 season era forever. I think I finally tossed it a year or two ago.
I believe we actually had 5 Johnson's on the team there for a hot minute back then ?

I'm pretty sure it was more than 5.

Word from training camp is that Chase guy can't catch the ball.....

Housh's mom's last name is Johnson too... It was that close to being another.
