The Roster Equation: Depth or Special Teams Demons

[EternalEnigma21]

Well for a few years guys like Marshall and Pierce were only ST'ers. I think the ST realm is a spot where young guys have a chance to contribute while polishing their position skills to try to develop into talent, but unless they're returners or kickers, you shouldn't keep a guy around that is just for special teams.

Look at thrash... a STer that can seriously contribute if needed to. He may not have the gifts of other recievers, but you can line him up and count on him... unlike Ade...

We've always kept a plethora of LBs around that were just a bit "undersized" or whatever to pay ST's, and they usually wind up doing all right...
