That tells me Leonard will likely retain his 3rd down back role and will make the team. He's a clutch back and seems to make a lot of first downs when things are looking grim, so I'm glad he isn't on the way out of town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 - Sims is No. 2 behind Peko, relegating Brandon Thompson to 3rd. Meanwhile, Still is No. 2 behind Geno.- Orson Charles is totally buried, trailing even Colin CochartWith the exception of Still and Ziegler, all of the rookies are buried. I don't expect it to stay that way though.I don't put too much stock in these things at this point of the year. If I did, I would have be worried that Sanu wasn't going to make the team... but I don't think anyone is really concerned about that.

Sea Ray Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 For the most part, rookies should start at the bottom of the depth chart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Maualuga is obviously the starter in the middle, but I found his comments about Burfict very encouraging."He's way ahead of schedule. Way ahead of where I thought he would have been," Maualuga said. "Way ahead of where I was last year at the mike position. Smart, he's very patient. That's where I tend to learn my game from watching him play in our practice reps."/>http://www.bengals.com/news/article-1/Update-Adam-Jones-preps-for-Jets-while-Marvin-Jones-catches-on-Dunlap-desire-pays-off-Sked-change/8ca94c74-4728-47b5-ae0a-fb7bdc987c02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsbengalsbucks Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 The RB Brown looks quick. WR Hilton looks like a solid WO, dont think he will even make the PS though. Binns looks good in 85, and Dalton, Green and Gresham look to be gelling very well so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I really don't think there's much to talk about with the RB's minus injury.They will keep 4 and BJGE, Scott (injury?), Leonard, and Peerman will be those 4.Get Brown to the practice squad and see what happens after this season.

I dont know the rules for a player that has NFL experience. If Scott is going to be down very long I could see Brown filling his spot. He looks good wtih his hands.

ArmyBengal Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yep, Brown is not practice squad eligible. My mistake.He played in almost every game in 2009, 6 in 2010, and only 1 in 2011.However, according to the link, the time in Detroit makes him ineligible.Each NFL team may keep up to eight members on its "practice squad" in addition to the 53-member main roster. They consist mostly of rookies who were cut in training camps and borderline NFL-caliber players. Both rookies and young veterans are eligible for the practice squad. However, a player cannot participate on the practice squad for more than three seasons, or if he has accrued a year of NFL experience (six or more games on a club's 53-man active roster or official Injured Reserve list.)/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scout_team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he says he learns how to play in this defense by watching an undrafted free-agent rookie play in it? I don't understand what he's talking about.

ArmyBengal Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I was wondering the same thing about that as well COB.I'm hoping he wasn't meaning it how it came across. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
