Take Hall and Joseph , they both stepped into early starting roles as CBs..
Yeah. That's the part we don't always see. I mentioned that in the Dunlap thread. It drove me nuts that he wasn't always on the field, but the way he was handled seems to have matured him.
I know Mixon was the first name outta Lap's mouth yesterday about guys who stood out day 1. I think he will blow our other backs outta the water in the preseason.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
