What at one time was an open competition between rookies to fill a spot has now become, we don't need a rookie. That doesn't necessarily mean that a rookie forward won't make the team, although I'd guess the rookie will need to take a starting spot and that means he'll have to beat out one of Jones, Bouma, Colborne or Setigochi. Of course injuries could happen in camp and he could get playing time if we don't need McGrattan on a regular basis as well.
