Then again, alot of people wrote off Griffin before we got him.. and Clark as well, and they turned out to thrive under our coaching, and we have a need. I'd be cautious about the move, but after reading his scouting reports (skimming through a couple online) apparently he was highly touted as a college athelete. He ran a 4.26 40.... Neither of those guys were a top 30 pick in the draft.
Rumph and Carroll were though. Rumph has really made major strides this year. Hes moved from terrible to plain below average in my book.

we don't have a speed guy, so that'd be a nice need to fill. I wouldn't expect him to do anything this late though, and, i mean, it's not like he's a great CB anyways.

yeah, then you have a roster spot to void if you do bring him in...

Speed and added help cant be denied, but we would probably have to let go of a special teams guy then and that shouldnt be tampered with.
Oh no wait Cory Burns pack your bags, it would be upgrade I would sign for that tomorrow Snyder.

We don't know what the deal with Ahmad Carroll is. You don't all of a sudden stop being a decent player. I'm guessing something is fishy in Packer land. He won't clear weavers, so there is no chance of us giving him a look.
Besides the bad tackling all round, Rumph and Wright played pretty well against the Jags. I was certainly surprised when they left Rumph all alone in man coverage towards the end of the game. So yeah, GW can turn mediocre into decent...I wonder what he can do with decent.

Some players just need a change of scenery to take off. I'd give him a contract on the cheap in a second. As bad as we need DBs.

we really need a coverage safety more than another CB though. curry burns sucks and fox is just a ST player and nothing else. doughty's also been non-existant, not that a rookie 6th rounder is expected to turn up with serious minutes anyways.

Anyone who continues to bash Rumph is blind. The guy has been a huge pickup and has made some excellent plays.
