Funny...sounds more like Portis is dogging on Rogers.

I heard a report on ESPN about Brandon Marshall of the Broncos, how he plays with the scout team so he can go up against there best CB it makes him better, that's probably whats making MM (Marko Mitchell) better.

Love to see Marshall in a skins uni. He'd instantly make our offense more potent. We need a threat over there. Moss is a threat, but more of the 2nd wr variety.

Don't forget he'd also help keep our women in line.

I'm telling you... I put it out there about a week ago on a thread....

I had been reading all camp how he catches anything near him. He may be raw, (and way to thin!!), but he is TALL, and CATCHES the ball! I think he should make the roster over Hagans & he could be another M. Kelly-type in the end.

But should he make the roster over Eloi who also has punt returning skill?

Re: Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell
 
let me re-word it then...

What i mean is, Marko Mitchell I think will be [I]what we drafted Malcolm Kelly to be[/I]. I really do think he has the potential to be the Chris Horton of the offense.

And yeah... he'll make it over Eloi easily... I think theyy are gonna stick w Randle-El & Cartwright. Even if they didn't, I think Aldridge or Dorsey would make it over Eloi.

Marko has huge problem. He is not a factor on coverage or return teams. How do we keep him as the fifth if he doesn't play hardly any special teams?

If he is that good I would want to keep him off the practice squad in case someone grabs him, but I just don't see how they can keep him?

Let's see if he really flashes something in the next two games and maybe he makes it impossible for them to cut him.

Didn't we just have a thread where Zorn said the 5th WR doesn't need to be an ST standout?

Did he? If that's the case Marko is in really good shape.

Just my take.....everyone seems enamored with Hackett and Hagens, I'm not. Hackett has spent 5 yrs in the league already and has failed to be a star. He's filled in nicely for teams, and knows the system but is not a major leader or staple of any team which is why he has been let previously. Hagens has 2 yrs in the league and to be honest I see him as another Hackett. His name excapes me, I've never heard of him before. He is 5ft 10inch's so my personal feeling is if we were to be stuck with someone 5-10 I'd rather have Eloi if he can actually catch. Only cause he's reported to have similar speed to Moss but younger which in my book speaks of Moss's future replacement. Possibly.

How sweet it would be to have 4 young WR's (Thomas, Kelly, Mitchell, and Eloi) with a mix of speed and hight to compliment Moss and ARE.

I remember this dude when MD. played his team in a bowl game. If I remember correctly he killed MD. But it's one thing to do it in practice. Let's see what he does in a game. Remember Tryon was having a great camp until he had to actually play in a game.
