Lets see what out there just on free agents that are unsigned.... Drew Bennett Shaun Bodiford Drew Carter Robert Ferguson Dante Hall Marvin Harrison Darrell Jackson Nate Jackson Justin Jenkins Matt Jones Joe Jurevicius Ashley Lelie Dane Looker Justin McCareins Jerry Porter Koren Robinson
Wow Ben Troupe was pretty decent, surprised he hasn't been signed. Why not bring in Marvin Harrison as well what can it hurt?
Safeties.... Michael Boulware John Busing Oliver Celestin Michael Green Rodney Harrison Calvin Lowry Marquand Manuel
We're fine at WR, none of the players that you listed (especially the highlighted ones) are better than what we currently have.
Linebacker............. Jon Alston Rocky Boiman Roderick Green Morlon Greenwood Robert McCune Willie McGinest Ryan Nece Antwan Peek
Are you guys kidding me???? Harrison is a pro bowler. How can you compare him and say Ginn, Bess, Camaillo, or anyone else is better??? We need a big name reciever to loosen up the defence and give our young guys more oportunities.
These are all scrap heap players who, for the most part haven't ever lived up to hype (Troupe) or are now old and slow (Harrison, etc.). I'd pass on all of them on all positions, especially WR and S. None of what we currently have on the roster is any worse than what's out there.
Penny was also a scrap heap player, and he took this franchise to the AFC East Champoinship. Please....
Harrison doesn't have a job because his knees are shot, he isn't a upgrade over what we have. I think you're overreacting a bit by scouring the FA heap, let the guys that we have do their job.
Aren't you the least bit concerned that evewn after Anthony Gonzalez went down the Colts still wouldn't re-sign Harrison? No other teams have even given him time to showcase what. He has left...let's face it, he is D U N
Pennington wasn't looking for a job 3 weeks into the season, he was dumped because the Jets wanted Favre. Look at how that turned out for them.
Well we cant win games being a 20 yard team. 90% of the passes I see every time I watch the games we throw slants, and cross patters or screens. Gin has half a yard after the catch, and is afraid to get hit. And poor Camarillo is doing everything he can with his shot knees. Its only 3 weeks and we are already looking for 2010. That is effed up. I have been a fan for a long time, and this team is starting to look like the freakin Lions of the past.
I think the Colt's have depth and that is probably the main reason, they haven't seemed to miss a beat since he went down.
I haven't seen us throw slants or crossing patterns hardly at all this year. We've ran a lot of bubble screen stuff, but the other pass patterns I'm not seeing as much. And if you think Harrison would be any better than Camarillo, you're crazy. His knees are more shot than Greg's. Let's give Henne a week of first team practice before we go out and blow things up 3 weeks into the season.
That's the offense that we run because Penny is limited due to a weak arm. I expect to see a more open offense in the next game. Nonsense
The only advantage I can see to bringing in Harrison would be to mentor the younger receivers. Unfortunately, that's never been something Marvin was known for.
