    Not sure if this is topic worthy but this dude is 215 pounds with 3.9% body fat. I see why the NFL kept testing him for PEDs. Wonder if he can push Williams for the number 2 spot or at least if Williams goes down step up. He showed potential last year and that's going to be like 215 pounds of brick slamming into people. He has some wheels also. Our offense is so fricking deep excluding the line one of them go down we could be screwed.

    I like him....last season he got thrown into the fire with no reps. This would be a great time to get him familiar and comfortable with the offense. I truly believe that he could be a good #2 or #3 for us.

    harris will be a good #3. we do have some decent o-line depth finally on the interior and shouldn't have a problem on the right side at tackle either. it's that LT spot that is thin and we shall soon see if that hasn't been addressed also.:cool:

    He had a couple good runs in spot duties last year. If they would've ran him more in that ravens game we win it and advance. Not sure why they didn't give him the opportunities.

    At the very least he had to know the blocking scheme better than a guy signed off the street! This is the frustrating thing. If a you don't trust a guy who you're keeping as a back-up to step in, why the hell do you have him as a back-up?

    The Pirates gave him plenty of reps last year and see what happened - NL All Star! He was great on defense as well. :cool:

    I'm not sure why the team didn't give him more reps in the Ravens playoff game. Instead we got Ben Tate off the street and gave him more carries?
    Anyway, I'm hoping he gets a few chances to show what he can do. I'm glad we have DeAngelo Williams, but from his past with the Panthers is a very injury prone player. So, I'm sure Josh Harris we will get to see what he can do. With Bell being out 3 games. We should see what he can do a few times.

    I wonder if maybe the coaches felt they wanted someone with a bit more experience, given the pressure of the game? It remains a bit of a headscratcher.
