vinny has got to go he spends to much of dans money and gets nothing in return

that tatum bell run went from almost busted to td

[tryfuhl]

that was Mike Bell, not tatum.

sproles wouldn't be a bad pickup if the chargers need something that we've got

No, but 2-6 is, and that's how the Skins finished.

Does Snyder and us here in Skins nation have the patience? I am not so sure.

What you're basically saying is that the Skins need a GM with a long term plan, one who brings consistency to the team and matches players and coaches. Couldn't agree with you more. I'm sure Danny will get started on that just as soon as the snow in hell melts.

Exactly what I am saying. Cerrrato and the crazy ass drafts the past several years leave me to think they are just shooting in the dark. Rarely have our recent drafts addressed the most glaring needs of our team. Remember when we drafted 2 mid to low round RBs? We could have at least drafted a couple defensive linemen or DBs and maybe could have gotten one decent starter where we sorely needed one. I believe that was the 2006 draft where we drafted Blades. Anyway Snyder needs to back off the football completely.
