Jake is a RFA, so I see no reason why is not back on the cheap.

 

[MadCardDisease]

I remember his rookie year with Seattle was solid. Thought he would become the next big thing at TE. However after his second season he really took a nose dive. I think he has concussion issues.

I think he has concussion issues.

He does. Bad enough that he was considering retiring at one point. This guy isn't worth more than the vet minimum at this point IMO.

 

[MigratingOsprey]

soft

 

[desertdawg]

Can't he just wear a giant bubble helmet like Welker?

 

[Jay Cardinal]

He was the second TE along with Kyle Rudolph before he went down. Should come fairly cheap. My friend is a Minnesota fan and said he is a pretty good blocker. Was used a lot in two tight-end sets to block for Adrian Peterson.

 

[Chopper0080]

Better than what we have.

 

[Mainstreet]

I can't help but think about Ryan Swope.

 

[Buckybird]

Better than what we have.

So is Ditka, Jackie Smith & Ozzie Newsome even at their age

As far as Carlson...pass!

Doesn't move the meter for me one way or the other. I'm cool with keeping Ballard, drafting one early, and giving Housler one last chance to figure it out.

I am down with Housler and Ryan Williams next year, book it.

 

[Mulli]

I hope he was just selling insurance. Hey-o!

Housler is what he is. At this point the ONLY offensive player I would take

in the first 2 rounds is ASJ. Yesterday Mcshay put out his new mock and

had us passing on Eric Ebron for Dennard. I read a report yesterday that

Dennard may fall out of the first round over concerns about his long speed

I am not down on Housler like many apparently are. I hope we keep the man.

 

[PACardsFan]

Cardinals just signed him to a 2 year deal.

I'm down on the Dude like the football... usually being found on the ground and not in his hands lol
