I think Ian has shown enough to contribute. Manhurtz will also be in the mix. If we can add a young body then thats not a bad thing. I'm on the fence with Ian. I have see good flashes but he still isn't a lock. I am not excited about Manhurtz but if we don't bring in anyone then we at least make it through the year and worry about thay next offseason. We just have so many issues, needs and places were we need to improve beyond replaceable.

I think we finally ditch Rivera's pet project, Manhertz...bring in a mid-level FA and draft a day 3 guy.  I still am not sold on Thomas being a TE1. The physical attributes are there, but he seems to still struggle concepts of the position.  Whether he's ready or not, it's his opportunity to shine with Greg gone.

With so many holes, I think it's a luxury to take a TE anywhere higher than the 5th.  I am personally not mocking one until the 6th or 7th rounds.

This kid is going to be fun to watch, a former QB, he has a lot of abilities.  Brady could be very creative.  Agreed that we have a lot of holes.

He looked great at Senior Bowl and will do well at Combine.  He will probably not last until the 4th anyway

I think Thomas can be pretty damn good. I would like to see us add a mid-level FA to upgrade our #2 spot. Manhertz is a #3 at best.

 

Thomas dropped catchable balls, and last year our QBs didn't throw a lot of those, so it stung.  We knew he was raw coming out.  I think he's capable and should be even better this year.  But I'm all for getting another one.  If Ian goes down, we have nothing as far as weapons go.

      The running back situation....

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I had everything saved on an old email address and my computer crashed and could not be revived.  I tried reviving it, then stumbled on one I was going to create several years ago...So I am using it instead.  My fault--did not keep the email and forgot password--

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      By bandu · Posted

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.is what i am actually referring to in that particular post  all those #'s you are referring to are athletic #'s & Monroe Freeling had or has an impressive combination of size & raw athletiscm & it has nothing do with his size or athelticsm that is preventing him from being a day 1 starter in the NFL technique is where he struggled at the NFL combine & not only scouts but analysts alike also viewed him as more of a developmental type of player rather than a day 1 starter  go take a look at Will Campbell transition from the SEC to the NFL another first round LT that was drafted #4 overall by the New England Patriot,s.Will Campbell was a three year starter at  LSU & was thought to be one of if not the very best LT's in the SEC  & compare his SEC carrer to his rookie season in the NFL? just because you played good in the SEC at LT does nescarrily mean you are ready to start at LT in the NFL day 1 & or your rookie season  & one last thing i think you are jumping to conclusion & somehow assuming that i do not like Monroe Freeling ?which could not be further from the truth .what i do not like is the idea starting a player who is not ready ...just saying

      I'd 10x rather play the NFC North than NFC West.
