Crawled Through 5 FB Fields
Here are the players that DG should hop on, IMHO:
1. WR Tom Crowder (Dallas). This guy is as good a special team's player as there is. Parcells must have really regretted letting him go...but I would switch him to safety...he's got speed, range and outstanding open field tackling ability.
2. G Scott Young (Philadelphia). Was one of the strongest players at the combine. Very surprised the Eagles left him vulnerable. Could be a starter by mid-season.
3. DT Cletidus Hunt (Green Bay). Big run stuffer, made to order for what the Cards need. Get this guy in shape and he's a steal.
4. TE Jed Weaver (New England). Talented player. Good receiver. Under-rated blocker...was a victim of NE's glut of TE talent.
5. S Arturo Freeman (Tennessee). Just what the team needs, a centerfielding ballhawk. Had 4 interceptions last year.
6. RB Lamar Gordon (Miami). Man, this guy has talent...the kind DG seems to be able to rejuvenate with certain players.
7. T Wesley Britt (San Diego). Rookie tackle from Alabama who could develop quickly.
Others to keep an eye on: DT Mario Fatafehi (Denver); G Chris Watton (Denver); RB Chris Fuamatu-Ma'afala (Jacksonville); FB Chris Hetherington (Oakland)...btw...I coached Chris in high school...he had been starting all pre-season for Oakland and played well against us...hard to believe they let him go...; RB Mike Cloud (New York Giants); DT John Parrella (St. Louis); G Wes Sims (San Diego); G Darnell Alford (St. Louis); DT Antajj Hawthorne (Oaklnad); TE Teyo Johnson (Oakland).
