    Hope Vannett is the superstar we need, because he's now the first string TE. Gentry better put his big boy pads on because he's the only other TE we have.

    Vanett will be serviceable, Hell of a blocker...And if he can just catch the ball and fall down...That would make him better than Frumble

    Idk...Maybe Alize Mack gets a hat also

    Sounds like Jesse James (most of the time, at least).

    Strange move, one day after Grimble said he would be ready to step up if McDonald was about to miss time...

    Jesse James has 5 receptions for 46 yards and no TD's for the Lions. Perhaps they'll want to send him back.

    Let's give them Moncrief + Switzer for him. A 2 for 1 bargain deal!

    TJ Hockenson is a stud. JJ’s opportunities there are going to be limited

    Grimble. What has he done? He wasn't a viable answer even if he wasn't injured. They put their chips in with McDonald. And he is a beast, but when healthy. When.
    And Gentry is a rook. Raw. They couldn't sign JJ and maybe they didn't want to. Would be nice to have him now. So they go out and trade. They needed to. They needed to...

    So, what you are saying is, he is contributing to their success.

    With Grimble out who is starting at FB?

    Maybe they can move Connor to FB and let Samuels start at RB.

    Even with a healthy nix you would only see him at FB in goal line and or short yardage formation

    I think with Mason they are going to have him play more under center with 2 backs

    Bring back the Play-Action pass to slow down the defense.

    He probably doesn't want to come back the Lions haven't lost yet.

    Vannett can block. This is an upgrade. He can catch too. He was good at both for the buckeyes. Our run game should benefit greatly. :cool:

    Very strange the league allows that type of thing to happen. I feel bad for Xavier.
    he atleast probably gets paid his 53 man roster money I hope? Reporting on 93,7 fan that he was
    excited about seeing more playing time.
