    It was speculated at when McCray was released, but Kovacs is replacing him on the roster. Must have impressed them a lot with his practice squad play. One of the players I was pulling for in training camp and preseason due to the stories of him never listening to people telling him he wasn't fast enough or big enough in college, and proving them wrong. Looks like he might end up doing the same in the pros.

    Good for him. Hope he can make some plays on STs for the time being.

    That description makes him sound like Zach Thomas.

    I hate it when people compare to Zach Thomas. No offense intended Not. No one can compare- not ever. The only other guy i seen fly through the air parallel to the field without regard for his body was a tackle i saw not too long ago from Clay Mathews. And though i don't follow the Packers enough to know, i severely doubt he does it as often as Zach used to.

    He's got instincts..around the ball..not something we've seen from Clemons this far this year.

    I really like the kid. I mean like a lot. He showed nothing in preseason. Nothing.

    Im pulling for the guy and his Rudy heart.

    Bingo! That kid has knack for finding the space to make tackles, he's already calling defensive signals. He went airborne on that goal-line play against the Browns. He did remind me of Zach. Rookie has to do that for next 10yrs though to match up with our #54. Just sayin. ;-)

    It would be great if he played well......Grimes has been the only good player in our secondary, even Reshad has dissapointed. Hopefully our pass rush helps them out tomorrow!

    Clemmons isn't a star, but the guy does make plays. When Jones screwed the pooch on that opening drive against the Saints, it was Clemmons who saved the TD. Clemmons has made a lot of stops in the first 4 games, he just isn't flashy and has poor hands for INTs.

    As for Jones not making plays this season, Coyles changed the defensive backfield up going into this season. To where before, everything was being funneled into Jones and allowing him to make plays, this season Jones has a lot of coverage responsibilities and he is struggling with his assignments.

    Cool. Walked on at Michigan and made the team IIRC... doing something similar here undrafted. Be awesome if he turned out to be great, he's got alot of work to do though.
