    8 runs for 38 yards (4.8 YPC) with 3 missed tackles created.

    Total preseason production of 20 runs for 101 yards (5.0 YPC) with the 3 missed tackles.

    He's among the 10 most productive yard gaining tailbacks this preseason. Shocker, eh?

    Jonas Gray also doing really, really well. Didn't realize that. No surprises that Bryce Brown is doing well. A little surprised that Cyrus Gray is doing well, but pleasantly so. I liked him a lot coming out. Rashad Jennings too. But I think Andre Williams might be better and he's also having a great preseason.

    Who is this Jonathan Grimes character in Houston? Where'd he come from. He's created 8 missed tackles on 19 carries. Yowsa.

    Reading Washington papers he really is on the bubble for some of the same issues that cropped up in scouting. Pass protection, Route running and diagnosing pass defenses. Which we knew would take time but it looks like Washington isn't prepared to give it to him.

    Plus he's apparently battling an arch issue in his foot.

    I got to think even if the Dolphins want him.....he probably wouldn't make it to them in waivers.

    I don't trust "reports" about who is really on the bubble.

    Last year everything I ever read on Matt Tobin out of the Philadelphia papers said he's going to be cut. The coaches never even considered cutting him. He was the primary backup at LT.

    Remember when Cameron Wake was on the bubble, according to Omar?

    Bounced between Houston's PS and the Jets active roster in 2012, was a depth player on Jacksonville for almost all of last season, and is now back on Houston's team.UDFA out of William and Mary where he set most of the school's rushing records, had a good combine.

    Not necessarily. You still have to cut a player and expose him to waivers before you can put him on your practice squad.
