Scott Cloman

I keep hearing that Cloman catches everything thrown at him. This is extraordinary for just training camp. With Taylor Jacobs injured yet again, do you think Cloman has a shot at finally cracking the Skins offense? I don't want to see him go back to arena football. :oops:

My gut feelings is he definitly has a chance...but if you remember Tylor Jacobs played very well last camp before getting hurt...his problem is health....I think If CLOMAN was to have a fighting chance at making this team he needs to be lights out Vs Denver Monday night ....The Denver game will be a perfect time for him to shine.....Most of the back ups will get a good look that night..

I agree with that. Williams said on the D side of the ball, all the young guys will get most of the playing time. Gibbs will do the same. I liked that we drafted Jabobs last year but I'm starting to question his durability and heart.

I agree with you on durability but how can you question his heart when we haven't been able to see him play. Playing hurt is one thing playing when you're injured is just plain stupid. I'd rather see him take it easy now and heal then really screw himself up by trying to be "tough."

I don't think Jacobs will make it. This abdominal injury seems to be more of a permanent injury instead of something minor. Cloman has a chance.

This is definetly a golden opportunity for Cloman. I'm not sure how long Jacobs will be out for, but Cloman this is exactly what Cloman was waiting for. He knew he was deep in the depth chart and was just waiting for one of the first five guys to get hurt. Now he has his chance...

Cloman usually excites in training camp but I really want him to do well. I wouldn't mind seeing Jacobs go because he chooses to ignore the fans on most occassions when he has the oppurtunity to sign autographs.

I beleive the TE's will have a say in what WR's we keep. By that I mean it depends how many Gibbs keeps compared to WR's. We have a 2nd pick invested in Jacobs, I would hope we could recoupe that??

I wouldn't mind seeing him go because he was only able to match Desmond Howard's rookie season reception output of three catches...

I wouldn't mind seeing him go because it would be the final step of the Grand Gator Purge.

I definitely think Cloman has a legit shot at making the squad this year "Especially" if Mr. Jacobs keeps getting hurt, and i agree with Mezzskins with the fact that Cloman's gonna have to kick some Denver butt..which i'm sure he'll do..He's getting better and better each year, and with the skills and size he's gained the past couple of years, i think this year will be the year he gets his due.
