Former #UConn LB Sio Moore placed on injured reserve by @RAIDERS runwayramblings.blogspot.com/2014/12/former…

>>The impressive sophomore season of former UConn linebacker Sio Moore ended when the Oakland Raiders placed him on injured reserve. Moore, who missed last week's game against Kansas City with a hip injury, has 90 tackles with three tackles and one forced fumble in 11 games. He had four games with at least 10 tackles this season while only accomplishing the feat once in 15 games during his rookie season.<<

Todman with a 23 yd touchdown catch. Getting a run out today. Also has 5 carries for 48 yds and 4 recs for 39 yds. Leading both rushing and receiving
 
Still shaking my head as to why Jacksonville wants to go with Robinson and Gerhart at RB over Todman. There's definitely the homer in me on why I think Todman is better but if he was given a shot at starting I think he'd impress. Gratz has been solid but read somewhere that ProFootballFocus has graded him near the bottom of cover corners but near the top of run stopping corners.
The Florida Times Union believes Jaguars CB Dwayne Gratz's future may be covering the slot.
Gratz has had a terrible sophomore season, getting benched after getting hurt in Week 4. He was eventually reinserted into the starting lineup at left corner after CB Alan Ball went on I.R. in Week 8. Gratz has graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 105 cover corner out of 117 qualifiers. But he's been a top-11 corner against the run. Gratz has the physicality at 5-foot-11, 201.
