Is it cool if we give Tommy Crowder some props in this thread?
Be my guess, Ben - the more the better.

It's a pity party, but not a funeral.

Crowder, Copper - not too be harsh but they are a dime a dozen long shot. Good story and all.

Me - Give me Peerless Price all day everyday over Crowder.
Last thing in the world I want to see is an injury and Copper/Crowder in my WR rotation.

I was trying to be gentle with this subject Nors, but what the hell.... when you're right, you're right.:D

Did it come down to Price OR Crowder?

I think not.

If Crowder had made the final 53, it would have been as a ST ace, not a receiver...

I doubt it ever came down to Bill mulling "Gee, should I sign Price, or should I play Crowder?"

No need to be 'gentle' btw ;)

We all know the player's current value to the team - it's the PS.

baj1, I realize Tommy's appropriate place at this time is on the PS.

Bill seems to use his ps a little more on the churning side than the raw player development side..witness his conments on how you always want a developmental 'type', but near ready oline guy on the ps, but I hope he does see TC as something potentially very special.

No one wants to see another Randall Williams feeding from the trough for three years..but Tommy is more of a sheer 'football player' than RW ever was, or will be.

I have faith he'll be on the ps.

There oughta be room for his potential impact, as well as his speed.
Hey, I don't begrudge Randall Williams his spot either...he was a wonderful gunner on punts and kicks, and he did have that wonderful onsides kick return for a TD that sealed a win...I think we should have tried him on KO returns.

Crowder has the speed and ability, but he just didn't make plays yet...I sort of wonder why a guy with hands good enough to try out at WR and that type of speed wasn't tried at KO return where we really really suck.
