Interesting tidbit about Chris Thompson. Shanny and crew actually had a late 1st/2nd round grade on him(talent wise).

@CarbonPrimo @EBJunkies That;s my guy.. Never any doubt. They were not cutting a guy they had a late 1st/early 2nd round grade on.

Tough call between Royster and Williams. Luckily I think both are competent enough to hold the role.

I think for the last RB spot, they may be looking at someone who plays special teams, which wouldnt bode well for Royster if thats what they are thinking. A lot of hard decisions on cut down day.

I think Thompson is that last RB spot. Assuming they keep 4 which I'm guessing they will.

Williams is more capable in that role actually.

That's one heck of a promotion for Thompson. He changes from running back to savior.

I don't think Briscoe makes the team. I think the last spot is between Nick Williams and Lance Lewis. I think after last night they chose Williams and put Lewis on the PS.
I like Williams a lot. Lewis too. I think maybe both are PSers. Can't see how we keep 6 WRs when most of our TEs can flex to WR. It's a good spot to save for an extra RB/OL

Thats why I said it doesnt bode well for Royster. But thats only if the coaching staff is looking at it like that. They may want the best RB and just choose to fill in special teams with what they have. If thats their thinking, then I think they keep Royster. If they are placing an emphasis on special teams, then Williams has the upper hand between the two imo.

Thompson has some crazy speed and quickness in the open field. Can't wait to see him on some screens.

I think they are looking at 2 primary runners and 2 3rd down backs. Morris and either Royster/Williams and the primary and Helu/Thompson as the 3rd down backs. Helu doesnt seem to have the ideal patience and vision to be an every down back for this system. But he can be a fill in short term and be a quality 3rd down back. It all depends on how Shanny is viewing it though and I could be way off. Just what I have been thinking this preseason. I havent been viewing Thompson and Royster as competing for a roster spot.

If they believe they can get Jamison to the PS, I think 2 3rd down backs makes some sense.
