Did they sign Barber to be their new ball boy? Maybe it's because I'm just not a fan, but I don't see Barber offering more than on-field distraction while the established RB's mow down the field.
Now that the Rams have sizable trade bait, I'm interested to see if they have the guts and savvy to deal the right players and keep their roster healthy.
Everyone is banking on Salas hitting the field running? Brave IMO. He's talented and all.... but.
Funny... I don't think Plax "agreed" to anything. I think it was more like "thank goodness someone still wants me.." Now remember P, the only guns you're allowed to pack in your uniform are biceps and triceps.
I hope Ryan knows what he's doing.
I'm sorry, but I laughed out loud when I saw this update flash across my yahoo toolbar. I understand the theory that he'll teach the rookie, but exactly how much "winning" education can Grad impart on his young Skywalker?
Tulloch's skills and talent makes him deadly. I like what the Lions have done here. He has the power to raise the confidence in other players around him and he'll be a good teacher to the younger players on the team while he's there.
Maclin needs to take Olive Leaf pills! Laugh at me if you want, but my baby bro had mono and olive leaf is one of the few things that help to combat mono. And since I've drafted Maclin too, I'm ready to send him some myself.
Regardless of the Grossman vs. Beck QB competition, they're going to need that crop of RB's to scurry them down field. Or else their 3rd and out will move them backwards more often than not. I would say "If Shanny were smart he'd put a rocket on Hightower's back and shoot him towards the post...
Mason has a athletic spirit that will never die which maintains value for teams and fantasy owners who want to squeeze the most out of even a WR3, even if he lives to be 100. I believe in Mason a ton more than I do Jenkins.
Do you? If the Hawks O-line struggled to give Hass enough time to execute the playbook, how is bench warmer Jackson going to excel in the same environment. The only real plus I see here is that Jackson will finally have the chance to learn on the field instead of on his Madden 11 & game console...
Finally, some good news for my weary ears. The strike has torpedoed our momentum but the youth on the team have restless energy that is yearning for alignment and play time.
That's a great point, and one I'm hoping becomes true and the locker room can stay intact as much as possible. Morris is doing a lot of things right and he's proving to be wearing the tread in his shoes in almost all of the right places on the field. He's a no drama kind of guy which is one...
Agreed Norm. Agreed. I'm getting my popcorn out though cuz Freeman has GOT to have another TE to pitch to otherwise we're going to be too much of an open book. I know we've spent a good deal of time this off-season sprucing up the playbook now that our toddlers are all graduating to whole food...
