Ditto on the tender hes worth a 1st outright or 2nd & 3rd, I'd love to see them trade him for Duanta Robinson......

He probably isn't. Rogers said something to the effect that he (LL) had too much on his plate and was often confused.

Yep, same thing that was said about ST during his downtime. Same thing mentioned with our corners, etc

Some of these guys just go out and play.. then you try to change their style and make them think of 20 things before the play, you mess their heads up

Duanta is a UFA and is expected to not get the franchise tag..

Antonio Cromartie Has 7 Kids in 5 Different States and it’s a Distraction | Larry Brown Sports

So here I thought Travis Henry and his 11 kids by nine women was bad, and now I find out that Chargers CB Antonio Cromartie is hot on his trail. A nice Sunday feature on Cromartie in the San Diego Union-Tribune talks about all the work he’s doing this offseason to try and have a great year on the field. In addition to the hip injury Cromartie played through all last year, we find out that Antonio was distracted by several off-field issues as well.

All throughout the organization there were whispers that the then-24-year-old’s head was not right. But sitting down between workouts last week, Cromartie acknowledged a less-than-focused drift through the 2008 season.

“Last year my head wasn’t in there,” Cromartie said. “I was dealing with my kids and their moms. It had my mind somewhere else.”

There are a lot of directions to be pulled when you have seven kids living in five states. Cromartie has been named in at least five paternity suits in the past two years.

Just another reminder when you’re wondering what the heck is up with a player when he’s not performing well that they can be bothered by everyday problems just like us. Divorces, family problems, paternity issues — it all wears on a man! I just hope the former Sporting News magazine cover boy might consider wearing that cup of his every day of the week, not just Sundays.

I was a fan of Rogers; I wanted to extend his contract when we resigned Hall's.. I am still a fan of Rogers, although his actions/words have changed my opinions.. Given the FA market for cornerbacks; the ideal would be for us to tender Rogers and keep him.. If he performs well this year, then we give him the contract he is worth.. We can't expect Tryon and Barnes to be the replacements; Tryon is best as nickel, nothing more.. We haven't seen anything from Barnes, literally.. Although SmootSmack hinted a while ago, that Barnes becoming a starter is a possibility..

very very sad. i mean do some of these guys have a freakin brain? it amazes me how something like this could happen.

skinsfan69 · 02-23-2010, 03:25 PM

Rogers has simply not lived up to expectations. He's just an average to below average NFL cb who can't catch and gets beat too much. But we need him cause what else is out on the street that's better?

NYCskinfan82 · 02-23-2010, 03:26 PM

Keep him, we have bigger things to focus on like OL & LB.

Why does it have to be either/or?

A vasectomy isn't a bad idea unless they like dumping they're game checks to these gold diggers. They could also take a page out of Kobe's playbook and stick it in the butt.

Carlos is a good starting CB in this league, and the best one on our team. The drops don't bother me. Sure, I wish he caught them. But at least he's in position for a pick rather than getting constantly burned. I think Blache caused more problems than he solved with his stubborn "My way or the highway" approach. It's necessary for a coach, in today's NFL, to be dynamic and work to the strengths of their players. Not try to slam a square player into a round hole.

Carlos will get beat sometimes, but find me a CB that doesn't. There won't be better corners on the street. Keep him for a while and spend the money on other positions where we don't have both talent and youth.

over the mountain · 02-23-2010, 04:10 PM

^^ i think your comment about corners getting burnt sometimes is what carlos was referring to when he said they kept going man and not changing. you stick a corner out there to play man every single snap and he is going to get burnt. moreso than if you switch it up somewhat.

can a corner be considered "burnt" on a play if he is in zone? i'm guessing so but it probably is not so clear cut as maning up and the reciever catching the ball on you.

You have to tender him! Only get rid of Los if another team offers us a substantial offer in a trade.
