Re: Skins/Bills postgame

Maybe its me, but I don't see Niles Paul making a lot of plays this year anyway. I read something about RG3's targets in camp and its been 60-70% Garcon and Moss with a little Hankerson,Davis,Cooley RBs thrown in. If he keeps dropping passes, he may still make the team but get deactivated on game day. The problem right now is that with no Daryl Young, you have Cooley playing FB when you really need he and Davis playing TE.

I mean, really? Setting the poor attempt at humor aside, what's your beef with my question/concern? The Pats have far superior TEs than we do and still brought in Ballard...for insurance, for playmaking, for whatever. We have Davis who's a puff away from year suspension, Cooley who just doesn't appear to have the speed to compete at TE anymore and Paul who doesn't look even close to contributing.

...seriously what's with a rabid defense of everything FO related right now?

Not sure what else I should add at this point

Re: Skins/Bills postgame

Maybe something substantive? I thought you've said many times Cooley has been on the chopping block. It would seem TE is something we'd look at.

Well, maybe I owe you a better response. First of all, it was pretty damn funny if I say so myself.

Secondly, why didn't we address the TE situation is a fair question. But why didn't we bring in Ballard makes little to no sense with your concerns. Niles Paul is raw, so how does bringing in a TE who can't even play this year help at all? Will that help Paul's development in any way? Why not just work on developing Paul, and why are we casting him aside after one preseason game? Fred Davis is one puff away from a year long suspension. So he's out for this year and so is Ballard, how does that help.

The only argument I can maybe see is Cooley, but again you're talking about bringing in someone who offers us nothing this year. I just don't see why anyone would knock the FO for that
