RW was asked tonite (CBS11) about his running mates. He listed four receivers to look out for:

Crayton: 'strong, solid"

Hurd: "Noodle. No bones in his body."

Austin: "Speed demon. Can catch."

No 85: "He's going to be a good one." But Roy couldn't remember his name, just his number. "He picks up my shoes after practice, that's what I know about him ..."

I don't know... I have problems remembering names as well. With all the different people on the team, it would be difficult.

No it is not. There are 70 plus players on the team and he is a rookie, he doesn't exists until he makes the team and contributes. On a football team there are no entitlements, respect is earned and if 85 keeps it up he will get his just due. Until then, he is a nobody WR trying to make the team.

I hope to see Ogletree get some more playing time at WR in these upcoming pre-season games.

If he continues to prove himself a viable asset, I'll get my crow ready to eat.

Still surprised there hasn't been anything coming out story-wise surrounding Manny Johnson...has he disappeared?

No mention of Stanglass?


Don't worry, Jerry has enough love for his pet project for both of them.

I noticed who was getting on the field much more than his (lack of) production deserved.

I read it as his final chance to show something.

Maybe it's like not naming the animals on a farm.

That is pretty ridiculous. Its one thing to not know everyones name at the place your work, but in your section? Come on... theres less than 10 of them.

he must have been kidding.

He was kidding, or not giving credit to the guy on purpose, or temporarily blanked on the name. I've heard other interviews where RW numbered all the temporary WRs, so I think it's something he does to rookies. That, or he's just not very coachable when it comes to remembering names.

RW11 has no competition. His roster spot is set. He would know his name if the guy was competing with him for a roster spot.

I bet Stanback knows who Ogletree is.

Yes, it is. He has like 8 other wide outs in position drills, meetings, etc. EVERDAY. It has shows ogletree hasn't asked him questions really, and that roy hasn't gone out of his way to help the youngster. Knowing a persons name doesn't mean you respect them. Holy crap.

lol, are you guys seriously taking this as a postitive on Ogletree?

Whether he'll be good or not, Roy saying he's going to be a good one but then not knowing his name and saying that he picks up his shoes and that's all he knows about him?

Maybe it's tough love, but it's not really a ringing endoresement.
