Fine but for that kind of money, and/or having to expose someone to waivers that you want to keep?

I guess I’m just against guys that are kept around mostly for ST purposes. The Goodwin thing annoyed me. I even think the long snapper ought to be a backup center, even though I realize it’s been this way forever. I just don’t get it with the ST specialty thing, unless you’re a Bates or Tasker type.

RE Luepke, they have misplayed him badly. IMO they should've either A. Included him more in the passing game and given him a few more carries. Or B. Moved on.

I am a fan of his and think he could've been valuable, but since he hasn't been, I don't get paying him.

I'll go with "he looked better than he'd ever looked before".

Why is that a surprise? We do not use two TE's in the passing game. Now it is even worse with both CD and Pickens.

We are a pass first team. When should we take out a WR to have 2 TE's go down the field?

I thought MM had a specific role in mind for him, and I was looking forward to the inclusion of a FB in the offense. I still believe it can be effective.

The extension was just after the Micah deal when MM was long gone and Jerry was feeling generous with his found money, so I really can’t guess what the plan is. It’s just he is almost never used on offense and it’s unclear to me where he fits. It’s not an indictment of the player.

I agree. Every year they recognize he should be used more and then they don't.

10x more athletic than Schoon.

Can he do all the other stuff?

If so then he should be able to.

People got YouTube highlight Syndrome. Just because someone looks like a world beater in a four minute college highlight video thinks it translate to the NFL.
He looked like a giant at Baylor but blended in the NFL.
I hope he steps up and becomes what we hope he can be.
