    Yea that's kind of why I added the part about a decoy.I'm only talking about a few plays,speed like that has to be respected.Anyway,it's no more dangerous than covering punt's like he did last night.

    This can't be good for him. But if they keep him and don't play him he'll be taking a roster spot from probably another CB or LB.

    I can't imagine Holliday being cut after all these returns, so it may be Posey or Johnson who is the odd man out. I can't imagine a 3rd round draft pick being cut, but he hasn't shown much and Kubiak apparently isn't happy with him.

    Well, if they didn't anticipate Posey being a project they're insane. I don't think they're insane.

    I think they knew Martin would be ahead of Posey at the draft, but I'm still surprised at how little we've seen him.

    This is something they've tried too. Not on a reverse or endaround, but they tried him at WR. I remember him lining up as the Z on a redzone play and getting targeted. But the ball sailed on him I think

    In the past two preseasons, Holliday would consistently hurt something after returns. It seemed, before at least, that his tiny frame would not be able to hang.

    The WR depth turned out better than I expected. Liking that we have to make a tough decision here.

    No real tough decision.

    Some of the younger guys like Maehl and Igelesia are out as is B. Johnson but the major young guys we knew coming in like Jean, Posey and Martin are locks. Holliday is the only real surprise.
