OK the QB kid can fling it. Keep him and Rosenfels . AND FOR CRYING OUT LOUD SWITCH WEBB TO WR. Get the best athletes on the field!!!

I totally agree with you, Tabarnoosh. I just don't understand the resistance to making Webb what he was drafted for. He's just not good enough to be an NFL QB. He must have something on Frazier or he and Frazier are BFFs. I thought MBT showed some real talent although raw. Much better to keep an actual QB like this kid rather than trying to make a WR into something he's not.

I hope I am wrong, but the passing game seems to be the weakest link. I hope a bona fide receiver becomes available.

The way it looks right now Wright will be the only new addition to the wr corp the first 3 games when Simpson is suspended. I don't think that is much of an upgrade so I am going to be watching the waiver wire for help at wr and lb which appear to be the weakest links once again. I sure hope Mr. Spielman is watching with me.

Burton will catch the ball over the middle and with Ponder's arm strenth or lack there of that is going to be a huge plus. Burton's stock is on the rise in general also and has some serious high side potential. He reminds me of a bigger version of Sammy White who back in the day made the tough catches and ran well with the ball afterwards too. Gotta like what you saw from Jarius Wright last night !
