Trollbert

Dude runs like a troll.  One of our MVPs.   As good as Dwill has been....Trollbert might be our best rb this year. We were all like..."Marty Hurney WTF?" when we signed him, cause we all thought, "Oh No! Overcrowded backfield alert".  But dude has his niche.  Backfield isn't overcrowded it's perfect.   

 

David  Gettles has come in and has done a great job with the 1 year deals.  Blackburn, Ginn, and Mitchell were great signings.  But some of the Marty Hurney decisions that we've questioned (especially myself) have shown to be wise with time.   If we were fortunate enough to win the Superbowl.....we should send Marty a ring too.   

 

After thought:  I know MH's negotiating skills were suspect and he overpaid.  We needed a change.  Point is....this team has Marty's and Gettles stamp on it.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
