The Big Cat attends Practice

The Big Cat seems to be doing great!

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4212376

Richardson received applause from players when he rode a golf cart onto the practice field at the beginning of an optional workout on Thursday. Wearing a dark jacket and blue tie, Richardson appeared much thinner than before the surgery, but also showed energy.

Attending his first practice in more than a year, the 72-year-old Richardson got up from his cart several times to shake hands of players and coaches.

Honestly, this kinda made my day.

You know this must have made so many players happy to see him out there. I bet it was a great lesson for the rookies too, to see how much the players care for the Big Cat. It would be difficult to get a real feel for this organization and the team mentality without Mr. Richardson out there at practice.

    • I don't believe this at all.
    • His PPG actually did go up a little in Colorado. We will see. I still sort of believe we saw pretty close to the peak of his abilities last year. Not wishing him ill or trashing him in any way. Just tend to believe we did sell high and correctly so.
    • Well, other teams also had an offseason. I honestly agree with him. Right now I have way more faith in Coker ascending then I do XL. I think it's the TE/WR group dragging us down. Plus he does mention that the list was made with WR's very much valued more than RB's and TE's(I understand the thought process). In that context, we have a very aging AT, two "wait and see" second year players(one leaning bust) and a rookie.  I really think this is a very fair rating, on paper and in the offseason. Quite frankly, aside from the aforementioned and aging AT, this is a bunch of guys still trying to prove themselves.  Then when you go to TE, it's easily a bottom 3-4 unit on paper. That is probably being extremely generous.  RB is where we make our hay. Probably a top 5-10 unit. But....he mentions early in the article that he doesn't value the RB units as much.  So, really, it's the weighting of the skill positions that is what really fugs us.
