re: Antonio Bryant cut

Why bother, he's injured and has been a headcase his whole career.

re: Antonio Bryant cut

When thinking of a move like this we have to ask, how much better does this move make the skins? Will this lead to more wins? IMO I'm not sure we are all that improved considering the risks involved.

Agree with you but the potential is great just see my Dream Sequence in another post. Moss, VJ, Bryant, DT, Armstrong, Austin & Banks.

re: Antonio Bryant cut

If he's healthy enough to play wk 1 sign him... Bryant is a decent #1, whose better than any of our WR's we have now, plus Allen wanted to bring him in anyway.

Opening Day WR's

1. Bryant X
2. Thomas Z
3. Moss Y
4. Armstrong
5. Kelly
6. Banks

Opening day starter? This isn't like basketball or baseball where you can simply plug and play. Hypothetically if we signed him it would take at least 4 weeks to get up to speed on the offense.

I doubt it would take very long at all. Plus we are 3 weeks out right now. He played in Tampa while Kyle Shanahan was there ...most likely when KS was the WR's coach so he should know him and how good he can be.

Lose Mr Kelly. Keep Galloway for the 2010 season and draft a WR next year. You can't drop Galloway since he is healthy and has shown us he still has something in the tank. I rather have a 38 year old WR that is healthy, runs good routes, and can make plays, than an oft injured newbie that has only one decent game of production under his belt.

I see your point but I don't think it's fair to judge someone who hasn't played... I could see us cutting him if he doesn't have a good game against the Cards.

Guy has a sprained ankle, misses almost all of camp. Taylor Jacobs has a guy fall on his belly during a preseason game and doesn't play a down for 3 years for various other injuries. I agree it is not fair comparing the two, but you have to have that in the back of your mind. If it came down to Kelly or Armstrong, who would you keep? or Austin? Kelly started last season and didn't do squat, except for one game.

Unfortunately coaches don't always have the option to give athletes a fair shake in games. Sometimes practice is all you get to make an impression, and unfortunately for Kelley he hasn't been able to do either.

You can dump Kelly at this point. We paid him similarly to what the Bengals did with Bryant. Except ours was over a 2 1/2 year period. We got nothing out of a 2nd round pick.

re: Antonio Bryant cut

Bryant could be a total steal for us so why not give the guy a look. IF we get him, we better keep Galloway though over Kelly.

re: Antonio Bryant cut

Is it guaranteed that Shanahan will keep six wideouts?

Also, I don't see how Malcolm Kelly has a chance in hell to make the roster.
