This move puts us on pretty close footing, offenseive wise, with the saints.

Sproles was a big-time weapon for them that I am happy no to have to game-plan for. This puts our rushing attack squarely ahead of theirs, both on the ground and out off he backfield on screens.

If we can retain Ginn, our special teams will be squarely ahead as well as Sproles was a menace in the return game.

Colston and Graham are big targets that we have always had to contend with, but Sproles added a dimension that made defending their big receivers a tougher matchup.

I think we take a big leap in being the favorites for the division as long as we have a strong draft and retain Ginn and Mitchell.

Jimmy Graham ain't happy

I guess he fails to realize they need the money to pay him...

He is the reason why they had to release Sproles, so by complaining, he's really looking like a chump. Just wait til he gets that WR tag and then they are going to be in even worse shape.

Wambulance just pulled out of the stooperdohm.

You all do realize Sproles was hurt a lot of lat season and Pierre Thomas filled in and did as good or better. This isn't such a huge blow to their offense as people think it will be.

I had sproles on my ff team last year and he did nothing.

Well, they want to trade Pierre Thomas.

This is good news because I don't think Thomas is as dangerous as Sproles. He's good but not deadly.  There were multiple times when Sproles looked unstoppable. I know he was injured last year but that was last year and not having him in our division (hopefully) is a good thing.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense.

      The Carolina Panthers aren't ass!

      David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.

      Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
