  • Dont know why it matters so much how and when they announce it.. You know the season is still 6 months away..

  • Since when do fans dictate front office personnel decisions?

IMO, Tate is going to be a good one if his head is on right. Had a very interesting time with Maryland.

Went from receiver to safety to LB. With a little reading looked like he had a dominate year as safety then moved to LB when a new DC came in and regressed a fair bit.

I actually remember reading about this guy when I was looking up stuff on Torrey Smith.

 

He was ranked as a top 5 safety in his draft year by Mel Kiper and then his new DC moved him to LB and he got hurt and well, he's just kind of fallen off the map a bit I guess. I wonder where we'll have him line up. I feel like he's going to be a guy they'll fit in wherever we can.

I likes me a tall physical (hopefully) DB.

Could be a great SAM or WIL based on his skillset, sort of like a bigger Diamond Ferri.  Why he's never really got a NFL shot is a question mark after a great NCAA career on the field and in the classroom, but not a whole lot of risk to take a look.

Omg, there's a town called Yonkers.

Out there

There's a world outside of Yonkers

Way out there beyond this hick town, Barnaby

There's a slick town, Barnaby

Wow...and people listen to that?

 

...I'm guessing as a means of torture.

I wonder if Hogue is here to play DE. Assuming we keep Henoc, we'd be set at MLB and 6'2 245 is big for WILL not to mention we've got Wild and Parker there.

Over the past couple years it seems like the LB core has had its fair share of injuries compared to the other positions. Depth at that position can never be a bad thing.

If Walters was "assuming we keep Henoc", he wouldn't be doing his job. It's just good practice to have import depth at every position, even if you have it pencilled in as an NI position... because you just never know what's going to happen in training camp.

Hogue first started at Syracuse as a RB.

I totally didn't expect Doug Hogue to be black.

What you expected green with pink poka dots. :)

I totally didn't expect to READ*BLACK.

I see what you did there. REDBKACK...capitalization. You, good sir, are quite the witty one.

I was worried someone would ****** Pontbriand away from us! 

Sportsnet lists Pontbriand as having 6 carries for 61 yards last year.... is that right?

His value is on ST...tho he does have an understated value on offense. That guy is always out there busting his ass. Need a lot more like him.

That's wrong. He had 6 receptions for 61 yards. He had a couple of big receptions against Hamilton in 2 games - one for 19 yards and the other for 25 yards. 

Speaking of signings......they have 9 days to announce the remainder of the coaching staff.  Why all the suspense!!  Yes I know they are down in Florida...yadyad.....but come on!!
