        Looks like Lee Robinson used to be a linebacker

          Robinson looks like he could be a good one .Too bad we can't play four DE's at a time. Alexander was a very good high school QB. You would think we should be looking for a more experienced WR. But he has great size and would think will remain on the PR this year.

            Definitely beginning to see a pattern here as to the type of receiver they are generally looking for...Bowman, Henry, and now this guy...all have great size.

              Exactly. Nice to see guys that are not fragile like Campbell was last year. Bowman has been very good this year but I wish we would use Henry more , he seems to have nice yac potential.

                    I'm quite sure that if there was an injury on the O-Line, Kabongo would get another chance there. And you might expect him to be very motivated and hungry to get back out there after standing on the sidelines for several games now. Must be frustrating and embarrassing for him to be going through this....

                      Robinson looks interesting. Curious to see how he does with his hand in the dirt as a down lineman. He played LB in college and was tried as a 3-4 pass rushing OLB in the NFL. I suppose if the talent is available to us it can't hurt to have at least one position of strength to deal from in the off season.

                      Same situation with receivers - we can always upgrade

                        I'm mildly surprised we did not try to move PK before the deadline of having to pay his full salary. If I recall correctly he is the second highest paid player on the team, at least that is what Danny M. said when he resigned PK. With this tight SMS it is unwise to have such a highly paid player not starting. And yes I realize he is great in the community but this mgt team has made some very unpopular decisions. Possibly his salary might scare off other teams ; plus he has played all the line positions except C and we could be wanting a more experienced player than Mitchell or Hinse.
