EmotionallyUnstable

Regardless of playing time?

What do you consider to be veteran status? With all the Cassel/ Fred talk going on, I'm curious to hear people's thoughts. If you choose that it depends, please explain

Great read. Really draws attention to the changing NFL

OrigINal

How could you not be concerned going into week 1? However, In terms of his career, he has barely scratched the surface. CB is a tough transition. He has great athletic ability, a great coach and (hopefully) the right attitude. He will continue to get better each game.

TT. He can do it all

I actually love this situation. EJ has shown promise and appears to be making significant progress in year 3. I think EJ as the 2 will be, again, a great learning experience. It will also provide him with an opportunity to refine his game. Come next year, it is possible that EJ will show to be the guy, but right now I believe Rex made the right call. EJ as the 2 and give Cassel his papers

Yup, unclear week 1 status

McCoy has carried the load for years now. He will be fine

Thanks for everything, Fred! You will truly be missed.

Extremely unaware of the ball, his body and loses the receiver easily when looking back. Too often I saw him turn his head only to loose the receiver, turn back around, randomly throw up his hands face-guarding. It's undeniable he has the athletic ability, and I do think he will be good, it is just a matter of how long it will take him to get there

This is concerning, especially vs TY, Andre and Andy Week 1. I hope Rex finds a way to keep Darby on TY and get to the QB quick enough

Great post, you've said it all. It's a reincarnation of Trent Edwards. ABC

I see what you did there.

Who voted for Simms...

I love all these QB threads!

It was apparent to me that Doug and co. we're out coached at halftime. It seemed all too often that we would be hanging in a game and opponent half time adjustments put the nail in our coffin.

Right, but how important is it for TT, or any QB for that matter, when we are playing without a majority of our offensive fire power?

It will be a real experience seeing actually coached players. I imagine we will be a much better second half team than we were last year

I have a keeper league draft Saturday. Able to retain three players by forfeiting the pick the next year in the round that they were initially selected. It definitely changes how I look at this draft. Shady has a much lower value for me in this case, where at Watkins is much more valuable. I'm excited to see how it plays out, but I have a 3rd round grade on Watkins. If he turns into the player we all know he can be, I have no problem forfeiting a 3rd rounder each year for a real play maker

Thanks Gunner, I like it. I agree about Boobie being in danger, I think that if he is replaceable on ST then he should be released

This gets me so jacked up. I can't wait for Saturday. EJ, please, step up to the plate and become the guy that everyone is hoping you can be.

Wait, I thought we were gunna cut this guy

OP, can you add a poll, I'm curious what the overall opinion is

Awesome job Love "the Turk" reference
