All 3 offer something Arrington doesn't. Special Teams.

Oh wait... I thought you meant health.

Not to be counterproductive to the point I made earlier, but Fayson was listed as having a left ankle injury the other day.

*Don’t be surprised if somewhere down the line, maybe even after Friday’s preseason opener, we’re talking about a Shaun Roger-Aubrayo Franklin starting interior with Sedrick Ellis coming in on short yardage and given passing downs. That’s not a knock on Ellis; it’s more a nod at the run-stopping ability of Rogers and Franklin.*

I spoke with Franklin a little while he was signing autos yesterday.

I welcomed him to town.

His reply was "Man, thanks. I am happy to be here. I WANT to play with this team".

Sounds like he understands his opportunity to play with a winner.

Shaun Rogers also signed Sat.
Our D-line is MAN-SIZED!
