Re: Daniel Lasco
 
same question linger as they did in the draft

Talent is there but can he stay healthy?

If you sign a proven back like Rex Burkhead RB Bengals. I would feel ok with cutting Murphy and putting Lasco and Cadet on a short leash.

I wish they would have given him some snaps at RB when the playoffs were officially out of reach.....so like week 5 or something.

I remember on couple of ST plays where he was like a combined missile and battering ram, so I'd say that latter evaluation isn't fair IMO.

Lasco was injured with a groin injury; read your injury reports; he'll be fine and he's a big part of the future here...

The guy only had 1 year. I would give him time to see what he's got. Like stated before, I could see Murphy gone before him.

He went to The Woodlands HS, same as some of the Pats players, interestingly enough. He'll be fine with us, rather than the Pats, which is where he will go if we release him.

Very good program. I've seen them a few times during the playoffs (Skyline and Allen).

The kid will be fine. As long as he can stay healthy he will be a fine addition to our running game. I say let Hightower walk if he wants more money. Draft Mixon with a late round pick and resign cadet. We will be fine. As much as I would love LF7 I know it makes no sense unless we go buck wild in FA

remember that Cadet is a UFA also
not sure the interest in a 30 year old Hightower, but he played very well when called upon. If he stays for south of 2,000,000, okay.

Mixon would be a great addition. That was a stupid move defending himself after the girl hit him. That will and already is haunting him. I bet he will be a UDFA. If he gets a shot at all.
