    Mendy is weak.

    His hesitation slows him down.

    Very boring back to watch.

    Only 2 carries this season for over 20 yds. I think.

    I would go with a strong, pounding Redman....

    Hmm, not sure Mac. We'll have to wait and see how bad Memo's injury is.

    With BA as the OC there is no need to have RB'S at all.....He only wants to tocken run anyaway.....We can't trade this year ,but we might as well get a contract on Mendenhall trade him for a 2nd. or 3rd. trade Redman for a 4th. or 5th,,,trade Dwyer for a 6 or 7 trade Batch for a 6 or 7,trade Miller for a 2nd. or 3rd. get what we can get out of the other TE'S and just go all in.....

    Stop faking it and draft nothing but OL and WR'S......If BA is to remain the OC we have no need for RB'S or TE'S on the roster,,,just get Ben some protection and more Weapons and we can go into the games with 10 active WR'S.....

    I'd put in some serious dough for the "Bus" to come in and help us finish this season. Who is with me (I know it isn't going to happen)?

    This.

    Not so sure about the TE part, but we don't need to worry about RB's on this team with BA around. Draft a bunch of athletic pass-blocking O-linemen, some freak TE's, a few more WR's and go all-in. Seems like we are stacking our roster more for power-running and play-action passing than the 4- and 5-wide sets that BA loves. Maybe Colbert is just preparing for a more balanced OC once BA leaves?
