jdawg4876 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I thought barner and hill were longshots to make the team at best but then I see stuff like this HASHBROWN3, Tim D'White Shoes Johnson, Geneaut and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim D'White Shoes Johnson Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Yes. I think this extra pre-season game will benefit the stable of backs for evaluation. Hope they make the decision of who stays difficult. jdawg4876 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they make the decision of who stays difficult. this could be one of the most battles of training camp as far as who gets a roster spot. most of us think ortiz is gone at fullback, so does that mean we keep hill and let him do it. can barner also be the kr/pr guy or will that go to green. what about stocker at te he can also play fullback.Do we finally cut saubert or logan bc we cant keep everybody. Bc right now there are 5 players pushing for a rb job on the falcons Tim D'White Shoes Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vel Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Once they added Ollison, I was full on excited because they finally seem to be going in the direction of the Pats style of committee approach. Freeman is still going to be the lead dog, but Ito is good in his own right, Hill is showing he deserves to make the roster, Ollison is a big bully, Barner is a wily vet, and even Brooks-James has some level of promise to make the PS. It's as deep a group as we've seen in Atlanta. HASHBROWN3, PokerSteve, sdogg and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouDog Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I still don't think Barner will make it but wouldnt be surprised if Hill does. JDaveG and ShmevinShmarris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouDog Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I could see us keeping 4 RBs. (Freeman, Ito, Ollison and Hill) since we will be using our TE (Stocker) at fullback. And keeping Green as a WR and return man PokerSteve and JDaveG 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so bc of kotter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion though Im giving him an outside chance especially if he can run catch and block well, plus play special teams rather that is as a gunner or as a kr/pr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see what value he brings today and hasn't seemed to do much overall since he's been here. Maybe they can stash him on the PS? IDK.
