They said he had an attitude but was more NFL ready than Manning. That's why there was a controversy about who would be the 1st overall pick. So don't act all "haha he doesn't know anything about football because he is comparing Ryan Leaf to Phillip River hahaha." It was an observation.

I agree with you man. I guess it's cool to pick on the freshmen in the post.

Good point man. The bolded part sounds like Clausen and Bradford if you think about it.

Not bored at all! If I was I would not come here nearly everyday. The point I am trying to make is that sometimes your grammar/spelling on here is so bad it is not legable. I will be the first to raise my hand and say my grammar is pretty bad on here at times as well just take sometime to proof your post it will go along way in helping others understand what you are trying to convey.

I now understand where you are coming from with Leaf comparsion. MAkes sense sorry for the cofusing and challenging your football knowledge

Did I not say I was the first to raise my hand about poor grammar?

I can't say that I saw a raised hand, but yes you acknowledged it. However, when you are writing a reflective post about proofing what you write, it does seem a tad odd to have that many spelling and grammar mistakes bundled tightly together.

what's that thing about throwing glass if you live in a cave or something?

I think he went well out of his way to miss the point.

What did Glenn do this year? Looks like he had 9 tackles all year... am I missing something?

[CultBrennan59]

^ He played special teams. I don't think he played "well" but he stuck out on special teams.

So basically "No one else in the class stood out" still holds true.

Sorry. I forgot to add a tongue-in-cheek emoticon.

I still say Marko Mitchell should have stood out but for whatever reason be it Zorn or Hixon he never played. I honestly think the Mitchell situation was a result of poor coaching and not the type were you can say something to the effect of "oh the coaches know better then you."

The truth is we sucked and when you suck you need to take risk and see if some of the young guys can play. Marko Mitchell showed more then enough to warrant at least a look.

Hopefully the new coaching staff will make use of him. Shanahan certainly doesn't mind guys like Mitchell given his best reciever as a head coach was an UDFA (Mitchell was a 7th round pick btw)

By the way, when do we get the Goodmans?

No certainty they'll get the Goodmans (or one or the other), but the scouts and other front office execs' contracts run through April so you won't likely see any changes until May at the earliest

Man the scouting stuff is so confusing. I mean how can you contribute scouting wise if you've only worked the beat for a month or two? Plus aren't the Goodmans unemployed while we have a staff shortage? What's stopping us from bringing them in now if we're going to at all? Why is this post nothing but questions?
