"After struggling at inside linebacker in Indy, Werner was hoping a switch to defensive end in Jacksonville would reignite his career, but the fourth-year pass-rusher is instead looking for work.

We expect Werner to get another chance as injuries mount league-wide, but the former Florida State star is running out of chances to make an NFL team."

 

Any interest in this guy? Doesn't seem like he's lived up to his draft position (24th overall).

Dumbass Colts were trying to make him an inside linebacker. Fug, why even draft him?

I'm pretty sure the Jags drafted him and then traded him to the Colts. He's only been in the league 4 years. I don't know if he'd be any good here but I think any 1st rd pick deserves a look at a position of need for depth.

Pie for the real Willy Wonka. RIP Gene Wilder. Always remember you for that and Blazing Saddles

And don't forget Young Frankenstein.

 

Edit: I'm 43 years old. My daughter is almost 21. She called me yesterday when she found out the news of him dying. I thought to myself "Why does this register with her?" Then I realized he was her Willy Wonka too.

Man I had not heard this news.  Gwad that sucks!  He was such a classic.  Stir Crazy still gets me to this day.

The Colts probably did mishandle him. Lord knows nobody in that organization seems to know what they're doing.

That said, he's just not that good.

I imagine Irsay and Griffin smoking big cigars and doing lines of coke patting themselves on the back for their genius selecting Luck. Someone brings up all their busts, they simply say Luck and continue to party.

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
