being a pre season all pro is cool... but I'm sure the kid wants to be in the rotation during the regular season.
the kid has effort on his side

I would start him opposite of Jones the next game and see how he does against the other teams starting unit. If he still makes an impact then he's our man.

Until Golden proves he is really back, Capi is going to play. for sure. And, perhaps beyond that.

Capi and Pierre looked good, but against second and third stringers, so its hard to gauge.

I refuse to get excited about this guy until I see it in a real game

I agree. This team badly needs a rush end, and I don't think Mayowa, Dora or Jacquies Smith are the solutions either.

Not sure how you can't be somewhat excited about his game last night. He will make this team.
My enthusiasm is tempered because he only weighs in at 249 and only has one move...a speed rush. He would be eaten up alive in the run game. O-tackles would push him out of the play. Now if you make him a situational pass rusher... Then maybe??

I can't judge the opposition, but definitely think that Cap has earned enough PT, so that the team can make an informed decision on whether he should make the final 53. Or not.

Neither can leap tall buildings, but both fill depth needs and can bring it more than your average roster place-holders.

What impressed me about Capi was his finishing ability - he'd repeatedly come out of nowhere to chase down the QB and make the play.

What did not impress me about his fellow defensive teammates was the amount of atrocious open field tackling throughout the game (SD's backup RB's can't all be that good).

He's still 4th string on the current depth chart.. and apparently his real name is Nordly (who knew?!)

Third down and 12, with the game on the line and though he may be mediocre against the run but shows he can hit the QB... I want the cap gun on roster and I do not have to think twice, especially if the likes of Brandon Williams has been able to occupy space

Actually, a speed rusher is composed of more than one move... see Dwight Freeney for the ultimate reference :)

As others have said I would like to see him play Sunday against the Dallas first string Oline. If he can even create pressure on a consistent basis then I think he deserves a spot on the roster. If he gets eaten alive by the Dallas tackles then see ya later Capi. It would be nice to see them put Capi in on third and long to see if he can generate a pass rush.
