  • ...Foreman is supposed to be the guy brought back.  Which is kinda' handy considering I was expecting him to carry the load (and not Ford).

    I found it odd yesterday when I saw the Browns kept 4 QBs on the 53. No team does that. I now see it was because they were looking to trade and get something for Huntley before a release becomes official.

    SF didn't have much patients with him did they.   I doubt Berry could've brought himself to cut a 3rd round pick the very next year.

    A SF roster preview this year said he red-shirted rookie year with a knee injury.  He was a 3rd round pick that probably wasn't going to just show up and beat George Kittle out. 

  • Then again, they gave up on him really early @orion so I'll see what I can dig up later.

  • I'm glad to see Foreman back. Now he has something to prove to the entire league. I like a player with something to prove. Adam Thielen of Carolina is still a starting WR with Bryce Young the QB despite young guns coming onto the team. Same thing with him. I got him with my last pick in the draft last night because everyone else wrote him off as washed up and ready for replacement. Not so with a player with something to prove the experts wrong who was 17th best WR in FFL points last year.
