Good hope he can help us

 

I really wanted this guy in round 7 or as an UDFA. Love having him and Ta'Amu battle it out next season.

 

Casey on his way out?

 

Good move!

I love this pickup...assuming he can play and contribute.

So this year's depth chart had 7 people early in the year, but had this group....Keisel, Hood, Heyward, Woods, Hampton, McLendon, and Ta'amu.

This makes next year's group...assuming he can play a 6 or 7 man group....Keisel, Hood, Heyward, McLendon, Ta'amu, and/or Fangupo and/or Woods.

 

I think the actual reason for this was because Ta'amu was feeling so bad about having such a weird name so Mr. Rooney was like "ooooook we'll get another guy with a weird name so you don't feel so bad." All this while holding him in his bosom and patting his head softly. I am POSITIVE this is how it happened.

 

"I WORK for Mr. Fandango!"

 

i wouldnt assume Keisel will be back either. he will be 35 next season. they are so old on defense they need to get younger and more athletic.

i think they will either draft or bring in a free agent. i think the starting 3 will be Hood, McClendon and Heyward.

 

Big deal if he was any good he wouldn't be available.

 

James Harrison, Warren Moon, Night Train Lane, Kurt Warner, Antonio Gates, Priest Holmes, Tony Romo, Jeff Saturday, Wes Welker and Burfict would all disagree with you
