IR Hartley, keep another OL, and not start Herring at SLB. But what the hell do I know... I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing.

So Ivory is definitely on the PUP? It's amazing the different things I'm reading on SI, ESPN, this site, etc... I think the lineup looks pretty good. Arrington kinda surprised me and I think Morgan going down made room for him. Payton and Loomis have a knack for finding new folk if we (heaven forbid) lose anyone in a thin spot so I'm not gonna spend much time worrying about that. I really think keeping all of the RB's, FB's is a good idea. It's too bad we have to waste an extra spot for a kicker, but I'll bet Payton even has a plan for that.

I guess we'll keep at least one TE on the PS and I thought for sure we would've picked up Meriweather

He's the anti-Payton player.

Why do you think the Pats canned him?

I love Meriweather(he has Shaun Taylor ability, just not production). But if Belichick cuts a Pro Bowl safety and it's not because of money, then there's something wrong there.

All in all I think we did a good job.. Changes to make well get rid of Arrington..Maybe pick up an LB... Trade for Briggs no way don't like that guys attitude... maybe also pick Sharper or even Merriweather up... But all in all we are in good shape...

SapperSaint · 09-04-2011, 04:34 PM

I don't know what to think. Alot of these guys proved their worth. I guess I'm ok with it. After all, I don't think they will change because Sapper doesn't like something.
