Merged: David Martin to break out in '07?

[Green Phin]

Bucky Brooks from SI.com names ten players that he believes will make a splash next season. Among them is our very own David Martin. Lets hope he's right because a TE is very important in Cam's offense and there's no plan B in that area.

Amen

What would you guys prefer, a very solid blocking TE for Ronnie and Lorenzo or a 50-60 receptions TE? I was a great admirer of Randy although I know he had problems with dropping the ball and even more so with blocking. You think Peelle can do the blocking and Martin can be a go to guy? Here is hoping

why? he was drafted by the green bay packers in the 6th round in 2001. he backed up pro bowl tight end bubba franks, then he came here. it isn't like he's bounced around the league, or been cut a number of times already.

I hope he can be just half of what Gates was for Cam

I am definately real worried about the TE situation and think we made a mistake not at least trying to address it in the draft or free agency. Some are excited about martin i just see very little to get excited about. I have said it before he is a low budget version of McMichael, neither was a good blocker but martin is cheaper and thats his main attraction.

gotcha. let's keep our fingers crossed that he can stay healthy for the entire season.

Hope he will perform like Gates.

 

[MelbournePhin]

he doesnt need to be gates, just good enough for teams to have to account for him in the recieving game

 

[dlockz]

Hope he will perform like Gates.

Until the snap I guarantee it, after the snap uh nah.
