Green sucks.

Suggs would fit here because he gets injured a lot.

Trading Fraley would be dumb.

Would be dumb for either of those. Either would be a 3rd RB on this squad. Fraley is very good depth. I'd trade Fraley, but not for either of those backs.

I think it might be helpful for you to read the full sentence over and over and over and over

now what do you mean?

The BIGSTUD · August 12, 2006, 04:21:38 AM

By bolding what you did, you are implying that me wanting to trade Fraley makes no sense if I said he's good depth.

Well if you would've read the entire sentence, I said I'd trade him but not for Suggs or Green. It's always good to have depth like Fraley in case Jackson goes down.

IGY, I'll debate you in hoops any time, any place. I still remember that gem where you said the Sixers would draft Marcus Williams even if AI was still on the team. Right on brotha.

Little blurb about camp fodder.

The part pertaining to the Eagles:

QuotePhiladelphia Eagles – Tight end Andy Thorn would need to earn a place on special teams, as the Eagles will also keep a third tight end as their primary deep snapper (Mike Bartrum). But Ryan Grigson, the man responsible for signing Thorn a few years ago and now the team's new director of college scouting, believes in Thorn's skills. That could help Thorn earn a roster spot. ... Undrafted fullback Jason Davis has very good hands and loves contact. He has been injury-prone, so he'll probably have a better shot making the active roster on special teams. A broken bone in Davis' hand might allow the Eagles to keep both he and his main competition, Thomas Tapeh, since Davis could go on the PUP list. ... Initially signed as an undrafted free agent by Pittsburgh two years ago, linebacker Dedrick Roper played special teams in mid-November and averaged two special teams tackles per game. He has good size and has shown the necessary toughness to make plays and create turnovers. If he fails to stick here, a team using a 3-4 base defense would do well to review his tapes at Northwood College in Michigan. He has "make it" skills for the NFL. ... Wide receiver Billy Sampy, undrafted out of Louisiana-Lafayette, has limited special teams experience, but he could be tried on punt returns. His chief competition for the final receiver spot or practice squad job could come from Michael Gasperson. ... Defensive back Brandon Pinderhughes, a former Division II standout at Nebraska-Omaha, is a good athlete who has better straight-line speed than most realize. He also plays the game aggressively as a defender and has experience at both cornerback and free safety.

theres only four people in the world who know that pinderhughes even exists and all four of them realize exactly what kind of speed he has

oh and that scab gasperon is not making an nfl roster in this ornay other lifetime

Like I said... Brown, Baskett, McCants, and Avant are locks.

yes. most of us have pondered that very thing at least 20 times. come on little tomato, try and catch up.

Wost Manneans beat the shtein out of Dhani at camp today. Apparently they got into a fight and Manneans slammed him and started punching him in the head.

General_Failure · August 12, 2006, 07:27:20 PM

Go Manneans machine!

What does THAT have to do with anything?

I think his mother died of AIDS, too. Consider that...both your farging parents die of AIDS, and you somehow keep it together enough to make it through college into the pros, with only a few minor problems, as iterated above. Given where he's comin' from, I'd say Green has made a huge step forward for his family name.

he went to the same high school as my sister (and me, but i was gone by then)...he got a complete free ride. never attended any classes, while the school covered up his academic ineligibility.

he's a headcase, and really has made no strides anywhere.
