  • Great to see this thread ... welcome to Football Season 2015, boys. What's up with Telfer ... he was injured when he was drafted and we weren't counting on him this year?

    Dont know exactly what his injury was, but...yes....he was injured and had just had surgery when we drafted him.....so no surprise there(or with Olomu).....I just consider them "rookies on tap" for next year.....

  • I think that TE we got from the Cardinals is going to have big year in this offense, big numbers.

    and what do you know, stumbled across a story that proposes the same thing:

  • Telfer had Lisfranc foot surgery in feb. not no doctor on recovery time, but foot not a good injury in this sport. Slater is a Hamstring, and must be a bad one after a year out in Seattle already.(sandbagging IMO) Ekpre solid IR imo no need to rush with our CB's. All 3 count toward roster spots and per PFT All 3 are eligible to come off the list at any point in camp, but cannot practice with the team until they are activated and they cannot be placed on the regular season version of the lists if they are activated..

  • Cluster of Questions?? Tory Slater got from Seattle's D put on Pup list 7-22 than passed physical on hammy to play7-27 that same day Cut?? To much competition at position was reason given by our media I say na na.. Flipo plan to use backs out of backfield in passing game. Ahmad Bradshaw FA or Willis McGhee with to many injuries?? Why in the world do we keep grabbing OL and DB before camp, how deep is deep when your already deep at those positions?? Tour any of the OL arena football guys any good?

  • I saw Bradshaw was available last night. Didn't realize that. Would have been an awesome (and probably cheap) pickup for us had we not gotten Duke.

    maybe to drive competition?

  • yep...you get to have 90 in camp....so why not cut em if you know they aren;t good enough and bring in some more.....??

    lots and lots of musical players coming right up!

  • Years ago, I believe it was Butch Davis who said if you improve your 53rd player, you've improved your team. Problem back then was that we failed to improve the 1st 22 players! We can't say that today (thank God!).

    That link that Zombo posted is exciting stuff. Defenses can try to cover Hawkins and Gabriel downfield,

    and try to stop Hartline and Bowe in the middle, and then they have to try to stop Housler...

    and the Browns can open the secondary up for Duke out of the backfield.

    Or a broken/missed tackle on one of the rb's......

    Oh, this offense isn't going to be anything like last year's offense. You watch.
