loyalboyd Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 He will be signed before the end of next week. Just think all these players that are going to be released is because the QB went to jail and must start over. It just really shows how important the QB position is.

Bengal Mania Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Cincinnati Bengals should make a run if the price is right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 why did the Eagles franchise LJ Smith? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budlitebrad Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 They could have gotten something for him in a trade. He didn't look that bad in the last few games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaterMan Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Hard to pull for my team when I don't know who's going to play on it next year. At least Moss is doing very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdrudge Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Hard to pull for my team when I don't know who's going to play on it next year. Don't you always pull for your favorite team? I mean, do you really tell your self "Man, we lost a few good players. No way we are going to be any good. I'm going to go root for someone else."?

In games I watched the Falcons last year, Alge was used as an extra blocker on almost every play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Beatings Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Vikings. TE's are "supposed to be" important to this type of offense in Minnesota. Shianco obviously just isn't getting it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belushi Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 For a team without much in the way of offensive playmakers, it seems like a strange cut. He's only 30, and they only save $1 million by cutting him. I know he complained a bit last year, but they need people on the field who can make plays. I have no idea who the #2 TE is in Atlanta, and it probably doesn't really matter anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, at the moment it's Blakely but he's an undrafted rookie with 21 catches in 3 years so I doubt he's going anywhere. I don't recall TEs playing a huge pass catching role in Mularkey offenses AND judging from the condition the OL is in... they're probably just going to go with 2 extra offensive tackles on every down.

darin3 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I think Blakely is their #2 isn't he? And he's a free agent I think. He's injured. They have Courtney Anderson and I believe Martrez Milner, who's also injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
