I just think it would be stupid to cut him. When playing a team like Philly we could possibly use a speed package with Moss, Austin, Paul or Robertson, and Banks as WR's. As long as the can provide the protection then other teams will have a hard time covering due to all the speed on the field.

Banks is officially no longer on the bubble because he picked up where he left off before he got injured last year. Shanahan is smart enough to know to keep a big play maker like banks. We know what banks can do and now we know that he still can do it, so that's why he is no longer on the bubble. No matter what some of the fans (or seemingly in his case, lack there of) -- think of him.
