Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
With the state of our line the long-term upside decision was retarded. We didn't need long term upside. We neeed guys who play football now.

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
Well the upside for Batiste apparently wasn't that good. Redskins just cut him

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
I was shocked when they cut him. They said it was his poor play, but I saw alot of other players playing alot worse.

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
Im still thinking we need at least 2 new starters on the Oline next year...one tackle and RG. I think Heyer and Levi Jones battle it out for the other Tackle position. Mike Williams is good depth as well as Reinhart...dont really think they are starters in this league...cutting Bridges was a mistake by the team and would have been substantial help what we faced early in the season, but that is what we do here, so really no surprise...

Would I like to see a young Steve Hutchinson type in his place? Of course, but if they don't get a guard & plan to use MW in the meantime, I think that would be alright. |

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
I am not sure on Bridges. I saw him last night getting into the face of Hightower after he fumbled. It didn't look like a "positive" chewing out, but a very aggressive one. Reminded me of his past issues. Not really saying it is the only factor, but something about that interaction looked way off to me. So I wonder if there was more than just ability at issue when he was here.
On the other hand, he certainly has ability, and it's a fair question about cutting him, when our OL was shaky to begin with. |

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms

Starter to disappearing act. |

Not exactly positive about this but I believe his assignment is to be the first guy off the field to get to the locker room door so he can hold it open for everyone else...

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms
Correct me if I'm wrong but once guys have been here a while wouldn't it be their positional coaches that decide whether they are keepers or not?
Vinny seems to get the blame for everything but surely Buges must at least have had a big say in letting Bridges go?
