For now, I can't imagine him worrying about playing the slot until J-Stew gets back and proves he's healthy.

Goodson has proved (for better or for worse) that he can perform and I'm sure that Davidson has at least a hand full of plays (be they designed runs or passes) designed to get him the ball because he does have that big play potential.

Regardless, I would feel like we would be in capable hands if J-Stew couldn't go for a while and Goodson was our backup.

He apparently has great hands. They'll probably use him there but haven't wanted to show this in the preseason. I have the same feeling that husker does about JStew. Not lookin too good. They may even put Jstew on IR, roll with Goodson and retain Lee, who by the way, was mentioned to be able to work out of the slot as well.

it would stink to high heaven to lose 28 for an extended period of time..i agree that 33 has much big play capabilites...but I get rather worked up over guys that also seem to be prone to leaving the ball laying around on the ground...and while he is dynamic, am in noway prepared to say that if 28 is indeed out that 33 comes in and there is no drop off...28 is proven, 33 while does some very very exciting stuff simply cannot be compared to 28 just yet...now having 34-28 & 33...wow...let's hope it is so!!!!!

J-Stew and Beason have vowed to play week one.  ANd yeah I think he was focused on playing RB solely due to Stew's inability to make the field.
