Thanks for the update! Love to hear what you get in the local papers. Out here I get NOTHING! LOL...


Just glancing through the list, I can't help but feel empty looking at RB and OL. I would hope guys like Unger, Wrotto and Willis have a shot at winning the starting job. I've been less than impressed with the OL since Hutch left (excepting all-world Jones of course). Jones isn't getting any younger though, neither is Hasselbeck, so we need to start getting angry, hungry and after it.

This team needs some NASTY on the offensive line. :twisted:

I think we have 3 very able RB's on our roster.

And if the zone blocking scheme works like it sounds it will, I think we will have no problem running the ball.

I say give JJ 15 to 20 touches a game, Duckett shortyardage/goal line and give Forsett a handful a game.

I have to say that as much as I like Owen, I think Weaver will be missed. I loved what that guy did when he got the ball in his hands.

I'd prefer to have Devin Moore over T.J. Duckett and use two FBs on short yardage.

I think Devin Moore is that speed guy we have been missing in the backfield that can really help gain yards when J.J. needs a breather.

And I agree about Weaver. The Runaway Beer Truck hopefully can help fill the void left by Weaver.

I think Butler needs to get in on the return game.

I am sure he will get a chance in preseason

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what Mora said they will do with him. Throw him in there in preseason and see what he can do.

 

[#ONE]

I am more excited to see Forsett carry the ball!

 

[LAhawkFAN]

I like Forsett returning kicks too. I just don't know where that angry attitude will come from? Who is going to say, "OK. These guys are ours now. Let's run right over the top of them." Maybe its Duckett? I don't know. Felt very confident entering last season, and everything fell apart.

 

[Hawk096]

They are giving Big Play Babz the chance to take Brian Russell's starting position at Safety. Should be an interesting camp!

There is a video of Butler getting everyone going like Ray Lewis does, but with him being a rookie I doubt he will take that role, but I could be wrong.

Hey, thanks a bunch for posting this. I was just reading a Yahoo Sports mag which of course is already months old.

I still can't believe they kept Jennings, especially considering some of the folks that were let go. I hope he turns it around and proves me wrong this season!

And did I read correctly that Ben Obama-manu didn't play at all last season? With all those receiver injuries I coulda sworn he was in there.

 

[Hawk096]

Obi got hurt before the season even started with a shoulder injury and was placed on the IR.

 

[Striker]

Jennings is the master of the "Over Pursue". Here is hoping he gets on track this season.

Thats GREAT!!!! my biggest fear is our safetys i feel we could have a special defense this year if the saftey play is up....brian russel is a smart vet but he is too slow, i mean i remember numerous times last season where the reciever was out in fron corner back then russel trailing them both in man cover 2...the most embarrassing was quite possibly the game against the dolphins when ginn jr. made them look so badon that long ball...(which actually was good corner coverage almost got broken up but russel was severly out of place)

Thanks, 96...I must've confused it with the post season from the previous year...I've been a fan for so long sometimes the seasons blur together. Either that or I'm gettin' old...they say the second thing to go is your memory. The first is...um...errr....uh...
:?
