Lately, this has more to do with pressure in Campbell's face because of our terrible patchwork offensive line.

Size doesn't matter. Steve Smith is doing quite well for himself. Randle-El was having a tremendous season before Rabach got hurt and we became vulnerable up the middle to pressure.

I don't understand how taking the trash cast off from two of the crappier teams in the league makes us better. I know there are stories of guys getting cut from one team, and then catching on with another and tearing it up. But honestly, how often does that happen? For every guy who makes it big with a change of scenery, how many simply get cut and never picked up again? Does the fact that he's a former first rounder change the probability that he'll be any good for us? I don't think so.
