we have improved vastly on offense and in our front 7 on defense, our secondary has a bunch of question marks, some i hope get answered come june 1st but we will see

DOESNT THIS EXCITE YOU !!!!!!!

 

[painnotpleasure]

Where's Ronnie Brown?? :eek:

 

[LtDan]

Where's Ronnie Brown?? :eek:

That would be the RB listed right after Ricky errrrr... Needs to switch that order immediately and then we will draw and quarter him ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jaj]

You don't know anything about Tebucky Jones then if you think he's slow. Hopefully we sign Lance Schulters.

 

[fear-the-d]

tebucky it weaker against the run better than knight in coverage due to speed

 

[cdz12250]

You're assuming Ricky? Why?

 

[painnotpleasure]

Wait... I'm still confused. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with assuming Ricky, but where's Ronnie Brown?? :confused2

 

[cdz12250]

The "RB" on his list is for "Ronnie Brown," not "running back."

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with assuming Ricky. I hope he's right and want to know why he assumes he'll be back.

 

[bakedmatt]

that just goes to show you, we had nowhere to go but up.

Ooooooh there we go, that makes sense now. Thanks for clarifying that. But hey, it's 3 AM here... I'm surprised I could still read anything right now. I was planning to go to sleep a couple hours ago and than BREAKING NEWS about Boston came up.

 

[cdz12250]

I can't wait for the season to start. We're in the middle of Heat domination and the Marlins season and I still can't wait. I'm not suggesting that we're going all the way, but Saban is the biggest agent for positive change we've had since we hired Shula. I am SO psyched. The list is dead on, and I'm sure Saban will do something about the secondary before the season starts.

Yeah. Boston. 3AM. We're hard core Fins addicts. Goodnight.

 

[Jimmy James]

This is all fine and good, but remember that Redskins fans thought they had a Super Bowl team a couple of those first years when Snyder bought the team and made big roster renovations. Pro football is an unpredictable game. We won't know if we're a contender, an also ran, or somewhere in between until the players take the field.

 

[beejay05]

Looks good to me except I really dont hink Ricky is in any kind of football shape. I honestly dont want him back. THe name RIcky alone carries with it a stigma that makes me cringe. From what I can see our seasons sucess is contingent on a few factors.
1) Will the secondary hold up? I think it will because of our vastly improved pass rush.
2) Feeley? that might be the biggest question, but I have faith.
3) and I guess the O-line, but I am very confident they will be solid. Houck is the man.
4)DT.??unless we sign Traylor.
I love the Boston signing if it goes through because that made my list 4 items rather than 5.

 

[Jimi]

You don't know anything about Tebucky Jones then if you think he's slow. Hopefully we sign Lance Schulters.

Exactly, hes made his career on being a burner who can hit like a truck. He just doesnt have the "ball-hawk" skills to be an elite saftey.

 

[finsnchips]

jones is not slow... that is stupid.

I'd take Konrad over Evans.

Good idea for a thread... poor analysis.
