Will Gator Hoskins make the team

Capable of scoring touchdowns something egnew or Lynch could not do!
I think Hoskins should beat out bracket.
 
Unfortunately for him there's not much to go on since he was injured for most of camp. He's gonna have to light it up in the 4th preseason game. I think Lynch may go to IR even though they're saying he's healthy...I think he still has back issues.
 
Probably PS...being hurt for most of TC is going to hurt his chances
 
As of this point I would say yes. A good game this week would certainly solidify his chances. If he is not kept there is no way he clears waivers. In fact I think who ever is cut (Miller, Bracket, or Gator) will latch on with another team.
 
Hopefully cuz he seems to be an "open secret" and I've no doubt either he ends up on the roster or will be quickly poached off the PS.
 
That one play for the TD will have him claimed in a heart beat.

Take the chance - put him on the 53. There's probably a better chance of Bracket clearing waivers and making it onto the PS.
 
I wouldn't expose him to Practice Squad. I would put him on the 53 man roster and have special plays designed with Charles Clay and Gator both on the field. Defensive Coordinators had trouble defending Clay at times last year, now welcome his clone as well. Gator can be a decent weapon and I expect that Lazor knows what to do with him.
 
I was also impressed with Evan Wilson on Saturday. I think he played well considering the brief time he's been with the team. I thought he block well, as advertised, but also surprised me by looking decent running routes. Wilson will be on someones practice squad this year, likely not Miami's, and could make 53-man roster next season.
 
Dpes he block or play special teams?

Seems hard to find a spot for him especially with Damian Willamas really pushing for a spot. Theres only so many spots left.

Seems the staff wants another 2 way TE, which is why they drafted lynch. He might Not be fancy but he can block and catch, which gives him scheme versatility.
 
True. Patriots would pick him up. He's basically an Aaron Hernandez replacement.
 
Egnew gone, and while Brackett has made some noise he's a never was. You make the space for Hoskins on the 53 and PS or injured reserve Lynch because both have potential.
