[CrackBack]

my 10

1-ARE
2-Portis
3-Landry (well, trade him. I love his passion and hard hits, but he misses people more than he hits them and gets burned faster than a joint at woodstock.)
4-8 - The entire O-line -- with Samuels going out gracefully in retirement
9-Betts - I think he had potential, but I don't think we will ever know now.
10- Not that I want it, but I wouldn't be sad to see Moss go.

Glad to see more people realizing Santana Moss has just lost it. I've thought that going back a couple of years now. Showboating, (not just last night but last year in Cincy with the "shoe shining" crap) easily schemed out by opposing defenses, flashes of a temper that should have gotten him thrown out of games, the guy just looks more and more like a complete bum.

And yes, the comment about how he'd never play for another owner speaks volumes about the way things are around here.

Ship his ass outta here, I don't care if we don't get a pick for him, I don't care what the cap hit is.

What do people think about getting rid of Cooley? I don't think we could get more than a 3rd for him. But this kid Davis is might be a better player. Vinny really got a good one here. This guy can play.

They are really different types of tight ends. Davis is more of an Antonio Gates athletic-down the field, big YAC potential type while Cooley is more of the Jason Witten solid when you need a 1st down, move the chains, over the middle/in the flats type. I say give Shanny (or whomever) a year to figure out the way to use them both and if not then see what you can get for one of them. The emergence of Davis really makes ARE expendable because we can now show a 2 WR-2 TE set and spread the field out to 4 wide and have mismatches on LB.

But having two pass catching TE's does not work IMO. It hurts the explosivness of your offense. IMO Davis is just more of a physical pressence and that's why I say we try and move Cooley.

If you people want to trade Cooley, you need another season to figure out the following:

- No matter how good Cooley has been (and is) he has only played 7 games this season and had ankle surgery. I doubt many teams will take a chance or be willing to give up the high draft pick many expect to get from him.
- We need another season to see whether Davis' is a one-year wonder or this year was just the beginning.

Otherwise, I don't see the need to call for a trade right now. As I've repeatedly stated, a team is built with both draft picks and free agency. A bad GM can screw things up with a lot of picks just as they can with picking bad free agents. Whereas a good GM can build a team with both.

It makes me sick to think so many of our players just straight up suck. I dont even know how people can defend the Vinny.

The kinda shit he brought is ridiculous. I mean if you throw enough darts in the dark you are bound to hit bullseye a couple times. What a joke.

Funny how just recently we were praising some of Vinny's moves and saying we've got some good young talent. One bad loss and it's all out the window? C'mon it's not that dire. This team has some players, but right now with a lame duck staff and a front office transition underway it's almost expected to see a team pack it in.

No question we have good players but they just don't seem to play well together. Especially in the secondary. Talented guys that simply can't cover anyone so I'm not sure what the deal is. Maybe it's the scheme.

rabach has to be gone. to bad i dont think this years FA centers will be anything like last years.

Who do you cut? Here's the catch. Each player must have started at least one game this year.

Randle El
Griffin
Smoot
Daniels
Moss
Portis
Sellers
Mike Willians
Jones
Campbell
