DMN Blog: Stock Report

by Calvin Watkins

The pre-season is over, so we look at who is doing good and bad.

Stock Up

Tearrius George. Had his best game of the pre-season with two sacks and four quarterback hurries. Is it too late for him?

Tashard Choice. Has a productive night and should be the No. 3 running back.

Tyson Smith. Played well with a interception and five tackles.

Nick Folk. Busy night for Folk. Made two 52 yard field goals.

Joe Berger. Had two strong blocks on running plays.


Stock Down

Doug Free. Had to play well and was inconsistent.

Richard Bartel. This pains me. Richard is a good guy, but he needed to play great and Wade Phillips said he was up and down.

Courtney Brown. Needed to show he can attack ball carriers and he didn't.

Wide receiver position. Lost Sam Hurd. Down to two legit wideouts.

Rodney Hannah. Needed to play well on all special teams to make the squad.
