Well, for one, he played a season with a token tendon in his ankle because his team needed him. And played pretty well. So he's a tough SoB, at the very least, although playing was probably not the best thing for his career.

By all accounts he's also a good guy, and that may be worth something as well when you have a team of youg guys.

So let's focus on his agent and his use of painkillers to play... Nice going Goat, for a few days I thought you had seen the light, if even just a little bit. But things are back to normal.

Nothing wrong with taking a chance on a guy like Pashos. Hard worker, tough as nails, something to prove.

As for the last part, once a troll, always a troll. An old troll too.

I gotta agree Lotus. I am 35 and I have just in the past two months been diagnosed with Chronic Plantar Facitius (I have been dealing with the problem since DEC '11). It is extrememly painful and I have been taking pain killers to get through the day until I have the down time to have surgery. I am a race car mechanic and also a crew chief on an endurance racing team. Long hours lifting heavy stuff on concrete all day and crouching in unusual positions while working on the car, running around trying to get things fixed in the middle of a race, and loading 20,000lbs of cars and equipment every other week is what has caused my problem. It is unusual for people with an average work day to develope problems like this. It is painful and problematic to say the least. It also can lead to stressing out other areas of the foot and the achilles. I am surprised honestly that he didnt rupture his achilles in the process of playing as I have developed some stiffness in the area when crouched (almost like a lineman) doing body work for hours on end.

That guy is tough as nails, and honestly he may be an answer at RT for a couple of years, obviously not much longer. Glad to have Pashos on the team and if he for some reason gets reinjured again well then so be it. He is cheap and looking to prove him self again. I like this pickup.

Not hating on the guy, just employing stealy football mentality. He's suffered a nasty injury and who knows what level he can play at going forward. Given the "epic" effort he displayed for the Browns, why did they let him get away?

Savvy?

Y! SPORTS . Polumbus / 2 yr deal.

[Mechanix544]

Polumbus didnt play that bad last year. There are worse things that could happen than Tyler Polumbus.

Who knows, he could improve as well, just like anyone else could. Maybe he is all pro next year, with the Super Awesome Pashos breathing down his neck, making him move over to the left side while we slide the lesser of our tackles Trent over to the right!!!!!!!!

ProFootballWeekly.com - Tyler Polumbus

If those stats are correct, then Polumbus indeed, didn't play bad last year. 5 sacks given up, isn't really that bad. I think that number may have been a bit more had we not had such a mobile QB.

Or you can look at it as having a mobile QB, he gave up 5 sacks when defenders aren't always rushing the passer and/or going to the QB at full speed, should he hand the ball off or run it himself. Mobile QBs tend to make their OL look better than what it is because they run out of a lot of would be sacks.

Picture polumbus without RG3 and then what do you have?

[ethat001]

Exactly. We could do worse than Polumbus, but at the same time when we were in obvious passing situations and couldn't hide behind the read option, our O-line could not pass protect. I'm hoping Polumbus gets better, but would suspect a different RT is going to be better.

Compton, Pashos - I hope someone steps up to protect RG3 this year.
