Frank Summers

[casdhf]

I love this guy. Frank the Tank. Bring your green hat!

[Mace]

You know, I do too. We actually have a fullback that can run, block and catch that is useful on more than special teams.

Go Frank Go ! Give the ball to Frank ! We have a useful guy named Frank, without dicking around !

[Meathead]

i love the guy too. and its amazing he wasnt able to find a team that wanted him to play for two of the five years since leaving college

but im surprised he hasnt gotten a penalty yet. he lowers his head to lay the boom on potential tacklers, and thats supposed to be flagged this season. my guess is the nfl isnt calling it this first season to let the players have a buffer period, but i expect hes gonna have to rein that in if hes still on the team next year

[Night Train]

He's a keeper. A human bowling ball.

[Owen DeBoard]

Frank and Fred you gotta love those names.

[coastal]

Frank and Fred you gotta love those names.im telling you... get a LG, RT and Brandon Pettigrew in free agency and run the ball down everyone's throats next year.

He's gotta get better at lead blocking. He misses a lot. It's good to see him used as a short yardage guy, though.

He paved the way for EJs run TD.

Pretty much. Fun watching him lower his shoulder on a carry or catch, but he has to get better at run blocking.

Best since one of my all time favorite Bills, Sam Gash.

I was about to say the same.

Maybe it was the older bigger pads, but the dude looked like a lineman by todays standards.

[ParanoidAndroid]

Actually, he missed his block and took forever to get through the hole, but EJ scored anyway. As a matter of fact, he kind of got in EJ's way and then hit no one.

Maybe, but only because....well....who else have we had at FB? Gash was a beast. Summers couldn't hold his cleats.

[Scumbag College]

Gash was probably the best lead blocking FB of the era. However, lead blocking FBs are almost obsolete today. The few teams that use FBs in the NFL now use them as receiving options and running options, and FBs for the sole purpose of being lead blockers are only used in goal line situations. And even then, a bunch of teams are using DTs and TEs as the FB.

Don't have a clue what you are seeing. He's always nailing someone. Saw him bounce Poz like a superball on a meaningless play, he inevitably plows someone under. When he's in on running plays, someone gets nailed. Think I've seen him miss two blocks all year. Might be fashionable to say he needs to be better and misses his blocks when he's in on running plays, which is mostly all he's ever in on and seems to do just fine.

Perfect.

Hmmm. I see him either whiffing or getting gobbled up at the LOS fairly often. He isn't horrible, but he's got a long way to go before anyone can favorably compare him to Sam Gash. I was responding to that comparison and the comment that he "paved the way for EJ's TD." I like his energy level, the fact that he can carry the ball at the goal line, and that he has decent hands. His lead blocking is his definite weakness.

[kingJofNYC]

There's a reason they brought Evan Rodriguez in.

There is literally no player I want less than I want Brandon Pettigrew. Steve Chandler has more reliable hands than that piece of junk.

[WagonCircler]

Who?

[CommissarSpartacus]

Frank Summers has impressed me.

Get him the ball some more.

[Mr. Pink]

Frank Summers is an average NFL FB in a league where FBs are becoming scarce because they are no longer a necessity in today's offensive schemes.

He stays, he goes, he gets replaced, we never employ a FB ever again...none of it matters.

Also, I would not sign a LB in FA because we already Carl Alonso and Mark Lawson.

[The King]

Just cut the braids and I'll be a fan.

Hahahahaha!!!

That almost made me spit coffee all over my keyboard.

[ICRockets]

Yeah my bad I was trying to combine Stevie Johnson and Scott Chandler and forgot the i in Stevie. My point is that a combination of Stevie and Scott, both hugely unreliable stone-handed guys in their own right, would be preferred over Pettigrew.

[Oaf]

Guy stinks at blocking, but besides that, he's good.

[Meathead]

was that him? the guy ej followed for his td looked a lot taller than summers. at the time i figured it was either wingo (bringing the big new rb in as a decoy) or that beaner they just signed as another fb. i looked and looked at the replay but couldnt catch the name or number and then forgot about it, but i dont think that was him. maybe somebody else knows for sure by now

Is that you, Mace?
