Posted this in an old thread not realizing it was from 2012. Thought I'd start a new thread to update where theses guys are at and what their position battles look like going into the preseason.
Currently on rosters-
Jordan Tripp LB Mia Dolphins
-competing with 4 undrafted rookies and two vets for a starting pos and 2 to 3 back up spots. All four rookies are pretty good coming in so should be a good battle.
Dan Carpenter K Buf Bills
-job is his.
Tru Johnson CB StL Rams
-competing with last years rookie who made the pro bowl as a replacement player for other starting job. Jenkins has the #1 corner locked down. #2 should be Tru's to lose but he HAS to have a good camp still.
Chase Reynolds ST StL Rams
-stand out ST player(5th in leauge in st tackles last year). On roster bubble due to alot of new signees at other positions plus another veteran special teamer on the roster that can fill a defensive position. At least 3 to 4 RB's ahead of Chase on the RB depth chart.
Colt Anderson ST/S Ind Colts
-same boat as Chase but a little more of a back up roll at his natural position but the Colts are looking to better their depth at S. brought in two other safety's in the offseason to compete. Could mark the end of Colts stay with the Colts.
Brock Coyle LB Sea Seahawks
-back up spot locked up, not gonna crack the starting line up unless through injury.
Kroy Biermann hybrid DE/LB Atl Falcons
-battleing one person for starting "leo" position. Drafted Beasly in 1st round at Kroys DE spot so that's all but lost.
Marc Mariani KR/PR Chi Bears
-bears just signed return specialist from AFL Ari Rattlers. GM sees him more in a Wes Welker role so may not be competing with Mariani. Not sure why MM can't get looks at the slot position. Dosnt seem to really be givin' a chance at Tenn or Chi.
Jimmy Wilson SS SD Chargers
-lead candidate to replace last years departed starter but has good competion for it.
Zach Waggenmann LB Ari Cardinals
-probably gonna make practice squad after coming off non-football-injury list. Very bad timing for his injuries but I think Ari sees a reason to hold on to him.
William Pohels OG Ten Titans
-practice squad last year. Could scrap for a back up spot this year but a long up hill battle.
Danny Kistler OT Oak Raiders
-same as Pohels.
Ill keep this thread updated as stories come out of the NFL camps.
