Lorenzo Neal on Sirius

[Tatonka]

he said that the best way to describe turner as a running back is think jamal lewis in his prime but faster.

he referred to him as a phenominal running back who is finally going to get his shot. he also said he will shock people when he gets his chance to start.

neal is the best fullback in the league and i am going out on a limb and saying he knows a thing or two about running backs.

just thought i would pass that along.

[Mitchy moo]

he did block for the single season TD record holder and single season rushing record holder

well then lets give them our 2nd rounder!

[BILLSROCK1212]

well then lets give them our 2nd rounder!if Neal was about 10 years younger I would consider it :smile:

[jamze132]

I don't think anyone said anything about giving a 2nd rounder for Neal. He meant Turner.

[Saratoga Slim]

Neal sounded like he'd been in Starbucks all day and part of yesterday. He was talking a mile a minute.

He blocked for Eric Dickerson???

I would give up our 2nd this year for Turner.

If Willis is not there at 12 listen to offers for trading down, hell even if he is there at 12 and somebody really really wants him (Denver has a need at MLV and have (1) second round pick and (2) 3rd round picks). I would take this trade from the Broncos swap 12 for 21 and get bothe 3rd rounders picks 70 and 85.

My Mock (with trade to Denver and using our 2nd for Turner)

21 LB Beason/Timmons
70 CB Hughes
73 LB Durant (can play MLB or SLB)
85 Wr J.L. Higgins/S. Smith
92 TE Newton/Harris

Neal is a beast.

[DraftBoy]

Also ESPN Insider is reporting that Turner is expecting to re-schedule his visit with Buffalo and should come to town. The fact that its been 48 hours already and no real word on whether or not there has been any kind of an agreement is a good sign for Buffalo. I think AJ Smith has every intention of paying his former employers the curtosey of the chance to offer.

You're aware this isn't 1984, right?

[patmoran2006]

landing Turner makes or breaks this FA period before the draft.

It's really that simple. He's better than any RB we can land in the draft other than Peterson; and he's so much better than any FA RB out there (Dillon, Brown, Barlow) it isnt even funny.

RB along with LB are the top two (by far) positions of need on this team; and we have an opportunity to fix one of them before April 28.

Someone has broken Dickerson's single season rushing record since 1984???

No

I agree. If we can get turner without giving up our 12, and Patrick Willis is on the board, that's a major coup by the FO. Best FA RB available and the top LB in the draft. I almost wouldn't care if we didn't have any other day one picks.

I sure was hoping Jamal was going to :(

I was there for the Steelers @ Ravens game, and I'm so glad he didn't break it. These Baltimore "fans" are unbearable as it is.

Obviously he's not going to throw a teammate under the bus - if anything Neal is just building the hype to help Turner out and increase his value.

PR hype and propaganda - nothing more.

Did you come to that conclusion from all the "film" you watched?

Get a life - obviously The Burner is still on San Diego's roster until he's traded or signed to an offer sheet by another team.

Neal is playing the PR game - and from the sounds of it he took a page out of Drew Rosenhaus's book.

Regardless Turner is nothing more than fools gold - and some idiot (our front office) we'll fall in line and grab the bait.

[Novacane]

I agree with the Answer. What do you expect Neal to say? Turner is overrated?
