I like it too. He has started in the league. My understanding is that he is a good locker room presence.

If he is an improvement over Smoot than we have made our team better.

Also, he can return punts and he is low/no risk.

I view him as a "glue" guy. You have to have these guys on your roster if you are going to be a good team.

Win win all around.

I'm fine with it. Not sure why Smoot is getting all sorts of hate. He played better than that bum named Carlos.

A beast who was benched twice in the past 2 seasons. Yeah, he's a beast.

On PB, I like the pickup.. At worst, he's a depth guy who can make some plays when given the opportunity. Also, he'll be in the mix at PR and represents an upgrade from ARE and anyone else we have on the roster.

I think it's been fairly well established that the benching was less a result of ability and more a coaching decision. Chances are his stone hands had something to do with it, but GB was not keeping him in, unless he had no other choice.

Lack of playmaking+getting beat like a 3rd grader on playground double moves+piss poor attitude=him getting benched. To say it was all Blache is ridiculous.

Smoot couldn't be benched because he was already on the bench. Smoot was the 4th corner last year.

he can be our pr/kr, is a year younger, just as talented, and half the price of smoot. its nice to see some adults running this organization again.

My guess is he was signed primarily to be our KR/PR instead of his coverage skills.

BigHairedAristocrat · 03-29-2010, 02:47 PM

i doubt buchanan would have signed just to be a kr/pr... unless no one else wanted him in any capacity.
