Final Cuts

Final cuts were made today. I made the team and am slated to start this week, barring injury. They made some interesting decisions regarding good, experienced veterans... mostly by the way of trades. There is no need to get into detail, as I cannot speak to the club's reasons. I'm sure they have a master plan that I am not privy to. I was very surprised, however, to see the team drop Calvin (one of the other DEs) to the practice squad. He was not happy about it, obviously, and I am not either truthfully. He certainly deserves to be on the active roster, in my opinion.

For my part I now have to step up my play and act the part of starter. I believe if I make two or three small adjustments to my technique that I will break it wide open and become extremely productive. It's just a matter of correcting several mistakes... I know I already have the athletic ability. Like our D-Coordinator was saying today, though: You can have all the talent in the world and lose. I really have to focus in this week.
