Fickey Foley was quoted on "The Score" sports television this afternoon that he is tentitively due to start at shortside defensive end, and has the edge currently on Dereck Wake although that could change in a hurry...
Looks like Blitz is going to get his wish as it's likely to turn out more like a rotation at that position, until one of the two dominate, and the lesser will substitute as McKay- Loescher did last season as the fifth Dlineman.
Even though Foley may have had a better training camp this season my feelings are Wake will prevale at this position, as it is likely the speed of his persuit qualities and it being his natural position will shine though, where as Foley is a convert from defensive tackle and would be more suited to playing either positioin depending on the down, and whether it's a 3-4 or 4-3 who's playing where and when.
