What's the deal with Eddie do you think? Just to make room on the practice squad?

Monkeydad · 11-02-2009, 11:31 AM

Can he start at Center soon?

hooskins · 11-02-2009, 01:45 PM

Nice. Playoff boundd

SouperMeister · 11-02-2009, 01:52 PM

As the season unravels, I really hope that Williams gets a chance to play to see whether he was worthy as a 7th round selection. Any moves on the O-line at this point are just duct tape and bailing wire.

championship!

Skinny Tee · 11-02-2009, 02:19 PM

This is going to flip our switch...

Who wants some now???...NFC East is being put on notice!

tryfuhl · 11-02-2009, 03:53 PM

any chance of Williams playing 2nd TE?

Dirtbag59 · 11-02-2009, 05:08 PM

What the heck? Everyone knows we need to sign either a RB or a WR!

SmootSmack · 11-02-2009, 06:13 PM

I think Kevin Barnes is expected to be activated for Sunday's game and I think I heard Rinehart is starting this Sunday but don't quote me on that. I may have heard wrong

If we're going to blow this thing up after the season, we may as well figure whom among our youngsters can play in this league.

Good news

sportscurmudgeon · 11-03-2009, 10:18 PM

This is a move made by a "personnel department" who passed on Michael Oher in the draft in April - - Oher has been starting at OT for the Ravens this year - - and on Phil Loadholt - - Loadholt has been starting at OT for the Vikings all year.

Loadholt (from Oklahoma) was a 5th round pick in April so the Skins' braintrust "missed" on him more than once. Which hero was the Skins' fifth round pick this year? Has he started every game at offensive RT? I don't think so...

nice to see if kevin barnes is worht anything, really don't thin he is, real question is when is marko gonna get activated?

GTripp0012 · 11-03-2009, 11:49 PM

Loadholt was (still) a second round pick, and we may or may not have been high on him. Given that we had no second round pick, we'll never know. Certainly, he hasn't been more productive than Orakpo, so if the argument is that we shouldn't have traded a first day pick for Jason Taylor, well, I'm the choir.

Just pointing out that the Bills, who could have taken Oher before we had a shot at him, decided that AARON MAYBIN was a can't miss player. If the Skins are inept first round drafters, what does that make the Broncos, Bills, Jaguars, Raiders, Bengals, Jets, Rams, and Lions, all of whom have gotten basically no return on their first round investments as rookies?

It means the Ravens are ahead of the curve of course, but what else is new?
