    Ground and pounding team adding high price WR, huh ??

    Harvin is someone you add when your a WR away from being a great team because your QB needs someone else to pass too. We don't have anyone that can pass to all these guys so it's going to become frustrating to them at some point. We just got Shady as well who's supposed to get quite a few runs, there's not going to be enough plays left to pass that much.

    I think we should add another few kickers for placement on each side of the field depending on which foot they use, splitting up left & right foot kickers for punts / kickoffs / FG's for a total of 6 kickers. That'll match us up with our current WR situation, very evenly.

    It makes me very happy to see that you've thought this through...

          Well, you can't not like it, but they never learned how to do it with Spiller. The very best of Spiller was that on the few times they did, he was uncoverable, waving his arms and standing there with 10 yards of green all around him and a huffing coverage guy lost looking around as to where he was at the line of scrimmage.

            No but is he going to open holes in the O-line all by himself ?

              Incognito and a 2nd or 3rd rounder will be a great online upgrade. The online and no QB are really long in the tooth memes

                We are going small ball on offense for some reason. The largest wideout on our active roster will be 6'1, and our largest tight end (if he even plays tight end) would be 6'4.

                      That's why we should have kept Chandler, and Bowe would have been a better pick up than Harvin.

                        Who's they?

                        I'm pretty sure "they" either quit or were fired...

                          Wasn't a fan of Chandler at all, with his bobbles and costly fumbles. No one that size should be that poor a blocker and he whiffed constantly.

                          We don't need Wilt Chamberlain at TE. Just someone who can block and make catches. Hello draft.

                            I liked Chandler, but I could understand if they were unloading his salary with the expectation that they would use it on Clay. It would still be going small, but at least we'd be gaining some speed at the position. I'm not sure what they're really building here, but outside of Felton this doesn't really strike me as ground and pound personnel.

                              On WGR the other day, they said it really isn't ground & pound, it is slash & dash.
