Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style

Who do you have returning then?

I really don't believe Banks will make it as a WR, so he won't make the team.


Terrence Austin is a good option. He or Robinson should be a returner for us. I don't want Moss or Hall out there full time, or any of our starting secondary guys. We're already thin enough in the secondary to risk losing someone on a punt return.

I completely agree. I'd hope that TA or Robinson beats out Banks. With presumably three QBs on the opening day roster, I have to assume that we won't have the ability to hang on to Banks (which is fine by me).

Unless Brandon Banks has a great camp and a tremendous preseason, I don't see him remaining. He has put on a bit more weight. One thing about Banks is he rises to the occasion when the odds are against him.


Terrence Austin should be further along than what he is. Looking at what Victor Cruz did for the Giants last season makes me wonder if Austin could ever do the same thing. Austin was drafted but Cruz wasn't. I hope Austin can get more opportunities so show what he can do.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style

I feel Aldrick makes the team this year .... And Austin and banks don't ... So far Aldrick is having the better off season of the three, but that really doesn't mean too much ... I remember being excited when we drafted him but those two fumbles on the kick offs last pre- season messed with his confidence .... And he never recovered from them ....I'm rooting him

Maybe they are upset about losing Laurent Robinson... Not that I think Percy is as good as Laurent. Because he's not.

Because Jerrah is obsessed with offensive skill players to the detriment of the rest of the team?

What I've been told, Vikings aren't going to trade him.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style

As said before, don't see it happening, but would Minnesota actually make a trade with Dallas after the Herschel Walker Trade? LOL.

That was so long ago. I forgot about that trade. I think the Vikings and Cowboys making a deal to exchange Percy Harvin for Mike Jenkins is an even trade.

No chance. The Boys would have to sweeten the deal with more than Jenkins.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style

Sounds like Rex Ryan doesn't plan on Landry starting this season. Might be able to if he pushes hard, but he won't last. That HGH ruined him. Think he would have learned by now.

Re: Around the NFL...Offseason Style

It's cool.

Anyways...

Report: Dolphins to fine players for 'unauthorized' iPad surfing - NFL News | FOX Sports on MSN

Since the Dolphins are transitioning to using Ipads for playbooks, shouldn't they just install a filter to block any unauthorized websites instead of asking players to refrain from visiting websites?

Also can anybody in the know tell me if the Redskins have transitioned to using Ipads for playbooks yet? That seems like a smart idea, it would eliminate a lot of paper, and I think it would make it easier on the players to study diagrams, learn individual details, etc. better than looking at plays on paper would.

I don't know, though Snyder is the co-chair of the NFL digital media committee so it's possible
