Not bad. Even as a part time player. I don't know if he could go a whole season or not. Nobody else does either. As I said, I don't blame the FO for reducing his salary. But if he decides to follow Daniels and swallow his pride, he will make this team better.

Actually he started 11 games in '07, but I don't want to split hairs.

For a one year vet min deal, I'd sure as hell take him over Albert Fincher or Robert Thomas.

Don't get me wrong, I never said the guy stinks. I like Marcus a lot, and I wish he wasn't running into all these injury issues. It is what it is.
