Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
I agree. If it's speed they want, Alridge is the man. I really think he could be a great addition to this offense. Hopefully he can stay healthy.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
I too am high on Alridge. We need that 'take it to the house' speed and only Anthony (possibly Dorsey as well) has that out of the 5 tailbacks we have.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
From what we have seen from the guys that VC has drafted over the last couple of years at WR I don't think Marshall is at all a need for this team. We have got some good WR at this point.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
Ok, you are probably right. if the 5 includes Sellers, which it would have to, then I would think, given the critical comments on Mason's special teams play and lack of blocking, that Aldridge may very well have won a job. Vinny also said there are12 spots up for grabs. Maybe the Aldridge/Mason battle is on Thursday night.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
I like Alridge. But Dorsey has a lot of speed, too, and is healthier.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
I prefer Alridge but I could live with Dorsey also. As long as they don't pick Mason. I am just not as high on Mason as a lot of skins fans are. He has floated around for a couple years now gaining a lot of yards against backup and non NFL players. I see him as more of a pure backup to Portis/Betts and not a change of pace RB.

He adds nothing to your roster. Decent player but that's why he has no shot. Alridge at least can offer a major upgrade in terms of breakaway speed over Portis and Betts. Portis Betts Sellers Rock and if there's a 5th: Alridge

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
Yeah, I don't really get why so many people don't think Mason is worth a roster spot. A lot of people use the "he's playing against 2nd and 3rd string guys" argument, and yet a lot of those same people are in love with Marko Mitchell.

Re: Vinny tips his hand on the final 53
I think "running back" in the sense that Vinny used, includes Sellers. So he's one of the four/five.
