I just don't know if they'll shell out the money for Atogwe. Of course if they do, he's the FS ...
Avery is going to be a third string receiver?
I think since we are drafting Suh. Little will return for one more year.
WR3 refers to the slot guy ...Quote:

hey guys, guess what other DT we took out of Nebraska? Carriker...... how well did that fair for us lol?
Carriker was a DE ...Quote:

Yes, but his "failure" may have been related to the position change. Carriker is a perfect fit for a 3-4 defense playing end ...Quote:

Ryan is a rapidly developing gamer at the position, had 35 tackles, 8 for loss. Paired next to a horse like Suh, they could be a dominant pair ...
Scott is coming on strong and most definitely will figure in. Douzable, Ramsey, and Gibson would be a very nice rotational pair ...
Suh could set us up perfectly at DT ....
Man if Suh can come through for us that would be awesoem. Our secondary is not that great at all so we need a guy who can pressure the QB to help our pass D some. We need an immediate impact guy though. We can't afford to have a guy take 4 years to develop IMO. Can he be that guy?Quote:

Since you're not playing Incognito and the RG position is vacant...
maybe Rams could plug Greco in there. Not 100% sure if he's ready for a starting role but he's had some playing and practice time to get acclimated and looks sturdy. If Cogs is gone, we need to see if Greco's got what it takes. If not, Devaney and Demoff better get on the horn this offseason...
I want Incognito to stay. He has a short fuse yes, and makes bonehead mistakes. He's doing exactly what we pay him for though and doing it quite well. I saw him pull a defender and drive him at least 10 yards out of the play on Sunday. That man is a beast.
As for the boneheaded personal fouls, step into the man's shoes. He's told to protect our franchise back and a rookie who hasn't even taken a snap. He was sending a message to them that he wasn't playing around. Sadly he took it a bit far.
Long story short, the man is a risk but his play is well worth the reward.
Carriker wasn't once in a generation talent. Suh is.Quote:
