Booker has been a disappointment so far...not showing much of anything
his hands suck so far

Agreed.  He's juking around and not hitting the hole on runs, and he's dropped at least 3 kickoffs already.

So far, he's looking more like a WR than anything else.

ice grillin you

bookers never been a kickoff returner before and perhaps they are round pegging a square hole with him back there...he has been brutal...but im defintiely willing to give him the last two games to improve

the rest of his game im not concerned about in the least...i think hes gonna be a very good compliment to westbrook...my main concern is for him to get the offense down in case of a westbrook injury and he has to play full time

the one thing that was solid, aside from DeJack, is Mcnabb was barely pressured on his passes and they were missing both Thomas and Andrews

I'd bet Buck would get more playing time than Lobo if Westy got hurt.

buck might get more carries...but if booker knows the offense he gets more touches and more time....thats if buck even makes the team

pretty big if there.

Buck is making the team.  He looks about 20 times better than anyone not named Westbrook at the RB position right now.  Booker's still learning, and Hunt is not an NFL player.

Speaking of RB's, how about that Jed Collins?!?


ice grillin you

i agree he makes the team for those reasons...but if they dont want to go with four halfbacks i think buck is the odd man out...they gave a pick for booker this year hunt was a recent first day pick and westbrook is westbrook

your just gonna just toss out a guy that avg.'s 5.0 yds a carry because Hunt ran a TD against 3rd stringers. Awesome prediction

I'm pretty sure he was clear that he's saying they wouldn't cut Hunt because they don't like to admit when they make mistakes on 1st day picks.
