Re: Roby re-signs

I'm not complaining, but we have the best talent for 10 plays a game, and they didn't do that well last season, ranked 27th last season.

So, I guess I am complaining.

Re: Roby re-signs

I will say it.

Our special teams have maximum Suckage.
We cant tackle for crap on ST.
Sproles doesn't take it out anymore, the rest take it out and fumble or get tackled at the 10..

Not 100% of the time but 95% of the time.

And yet McMahon gets to keep his job...


Hopefully the recently hired Stan Kwan can have an affect on the ST unit's performance.

Re: Roby re-signs

Thought we would have signed Julian Edelman when Roby left which would have been an upgrade with Edelman multi-facet skill set; guess the price was right on Roby...

Re: Roby re-signs

I am looking to see who we add late in the draft or step up from the depth charts to aid in special teams.

Lets face it the over depth of bench can stand to be improved.

Safeties? there looks to be promise in that group
CB? i really am not seeing much there
LB? it is to freaking thin
DL? a world of question to be answered there.

Offense? has some of the same issues. Not as bad.

I would start with LB myself TE and OL with DL experience would go a long way too. these are the guys that seal the middle of the return unit. when we got burned it was this area that killed us
