Kris Durham made me think of our golden-haired boy (for obvious reasons).

Kris Durham, a.k.a. White Chocolate, is making a little noise since being activated off the practice squad in Motown.  He made me think of Brenton Bersin. Is Bersin that bad that we couldn't have activated him off the practice squad when we released Armanti Edwards?  I mean, he did seem to have a little something in training camp and preseason. We have signed him to the PS a couple of times. Durham was a PS guy that some thought would never see the light of day, but has come on and had solid production the last couple of weeks with Megatron on the mend. With Lester coming off the practice squad and doing a good job, is it not conceivable to think that  the coaches have Bersin buried on the PS while Hixon and  a newly acquired McNutt ride the pine.  I wonder what gives with Bersin.  He probably knew the offense better than Hixon before Hixon was acquired, and he certainly has to know it better than McNutt.  Is he just PS material, or is he being overlooked because of a lack of perceived athleticism in regards to the other guys?

I, I uh, I um, how do it put this?....I can't say I have ever seen anything out of Bersin.  His mom and dad were nice to meet at TC but I can't say why he is even on the practice squad.

 

Just my 2 cents.

 

So, why is he here then?  For the second year in a row? G-man is supposed to be the Godfather talent evaluator.  Sometimes the answer is on the roster, huh? Is Bersin that useless?

I'm on your side as far as Panther fans go, but regarding Bersin, your guess is as good as mine.  He looked like hot garbage at Wofford and my only guess is he went and got Jerry a cold beer one time at a neighborhood cookout in 2003.

Well, damn. That explains a lot then. That dashes my expectations, little as they were.

Yep, there was a story about it last season. About his dreams coming true playing for his favorite team growing up, attending games in Richardson's box...etc

He's a practice squad player.

It's not a big deal.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
