    AJ BACK

    Don't know details but saw it
    In my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned.

    This is a surprise. I thought someone would throw a big contract at him.

    Epenesa, Cam Lewis, Rapp. All crappy second level players. This draft is so important.

    Well they are paying him rotational starter money on a team friendly deal.

    Gotta field a team. Not everyone is going to be a star.

    Well at least Epenesa got to see a good player play his position right in Floyd.

    Re: AJ BACK

    Good signing.

    Epenesa has improved steadily over the past 4 years and is entering his prime at 26 years old.

    He has had 6.5 sacks in the each of the past 2 years in a rotational role. Not overwhelming, but nothing to sneeze at either.

    Re: AJ BACK

    Epinesa has also made some splash plays in that rotational role. Not a horrid signing.

    Have we had a probowl DE under this system? All they do is set the ends and contain.

    Re: AJ BACK

    I think rotating lowers chance of probowl status or better yet all pro status. Imagine heavily rotating Bruce?

    Rotating linemen can go just so far...
    If you have a good horse (Bruce), then you ride him double.

    Stop rotating. It serves no purpose as they vanish ar the end of the year anyways. The keeping guys fresh philosophy sucks

    Epenesa is NOT a "crappy second level player".

    Cam Lewis and Rapp are NOT "crappy" either.
