[the_future23]

Good or bad?

 

[RugbyMuffin]

If the kid comes close to the potential he had coming out of college ?

Awesome.

Man, I wanted this kid coming out of SC. Lets hope he can turn his career around now.

jeez, how many TEs to we need?

Whiz is to TEs as Gruden is to QBs.

Whiz is to TEs as Gruden is to QBs.

as denver is to RB's





but in all seriousness, I expect some cuts to happen this summer at the TE position.

We'll keep bringing them in until we get it right.

The shotgun approach. I like it.

Was arested around 3 times while with the Rams.

Sounds more like a message to Pope and Patrick maybe. One or both didnt show up to the 3 day Camp in the shape like they should have been so they signed a TE to send a message, maybe???

Familiar faces.

The kid has struggled since college, had some kind of bar fight incident at one point and was out of football last year. I dont know about being arrested 3 times, this is the only one I found?

But you never know, everyone deserves a second chance and maybe the kid can turn it all around. More competition in camp is a good thing and it shows how important Whiz thinks TE's are to this offense.

I like it.

Especially needed when you have mediocre underachieving talent named Pope, Patrick, Becht, Shor, and Spach on the roster.

 

[cgolden]

Can't hurt....Maybe they've got a new 5 tight end formation that they're dying to unveil.

So I'm assuming that him a Leinart played together and are tight?

I don't think Spach underachieved with us at all.

 

[joeshmo]

I don't think Spach underachieved with us at all.

Mediocre still applies. He was just the best of a bad bunch.

Tallest midget and those guys were even short for midgets (or should I say little people?)

 

[perivolaki]

You know Whiz has some experience playing in an "H" back system where tight ends are used as kind of a fullback/receiver hybrid.

 

[SuperSpck]

Both he an Pope were highly toted TE candidates coming out of college the same year.

Interesting that both are struggling to find a place on the team.

Says a lot about the draft and how darn tricky it can be.

 

[ASUCHRIS]

Great news, may the best man win.

 

[Dayman]

No one's ever doubted the guy's talent. If his issues are in the past, which I assume they are if Whis brought him in, it's a good signing.

 

[RonF]

You're a hard marker.

 

[moklerman]

Weren't he and Leinart at USC at the same time? Maybe that'll help him somehow.

lol I posted a link earlier in the thread of Leinart thowing him a TD in the Orange Bowl that obviously nobody watched...

man nobody pays attention to my posts lol, I mean, I know I dont have 45thousand posts like some of the veterans of this board, but that's just because I try to stay out of it unless I feel like I have something valuable to add to the discussion.

Ok I'll shutup and go back to my corner now, sorry for the outburst.
