[QUOTE="TJV, post: 560933, member: 4300"] I think Perry will get every opportunity to earn PT. His biggest problem so far is getting and staying healthy. We've seen flashes from him - last season he had 4 sacks, forced 3 fumbles and defensed one pass. But he broke his foot in game 5 and wasn't the same when he came back. He also has the physical attributes that made him a first rounder: He's fast and strong at 6-3 and about 265, even for an NFL player. He struggles in coverage but I think he can be very good vs. the run and he was getting better rushing the passer before the injury. House has also shown flashes but his inconsistency has to be frustrating for the coaching staff. I think it was the preseason before the 2012 season when he was playing both the run and pass aggressively and very well. And then he got hurt. His inconsistency got him benched on D last season until Shields' injury. But House was good on STs and that may earn him a spot even if he doesn't fulfill his potential as a CB. IMO what distinguishes Sherrod and Worthy from the two above is neither distinguished himself before injury. Worthy got by with a quick first step in college and that didn't translate well to the NFL IMO. He got stronger before last season but then had knee surgery. I didn't see him flash rushing the passer or playing the run as a rookie. Lightning could strike for him but I think he's got too much competition to make the team. Sherrod looks the part but hadn't acclimated to the NFL game well before his injury. Maybe having him learn OT and OG early didn't help, but I didn't see the quick feet required by a LT. The good news is he was healthy enough to practice for about one-half of last season so if he stays healthy perhaps we'll see what he has to offer. I hope that horrible injury didn't ruin his chances. He doesn't have as much competition as Worthy and he was a first rounder. But this is the last year of his rookie deal so it's now or never for him. [/QUOTE]
