CJ was winded. He didn't have the breath to make it. Sammy could very easily be our premier returner if the coaches would give him a shot.

Not sure TT is accustomed to catching the football....which is part of returning kicks.

See Patrick Peterson of the Cards.

Read above: Put your best players on the field as much as possible. (For example: Patrick Peterson for the Cardinals. Star CB and kick returner.)

You put your best players on the field as much as possible. Lorenzo Alexander was probably our best defensive player last year and he loves special teams and played it in addition to his linebacker duties. Why not put our best offensive playmaker out there to receive punts or kicks? If you worry about injuries all the time we'll never see a player's best work. Is it that Sammy refuses to play Special Teams? If so, that's a risk/reward that applies to our team (i.e. whether he's willing to play any position to help the team at all costs). He's a sturdy fellow...he can handle being tackled when he runs up the middle on a kick return.

I'm convinced we haven't used all of Sammy's talents as a WR. One thing we've seen is how well he plays "after the catch" when he's in the open field. He has burners and world class speed when he is moving straight ahead. His stress fractures (in my opinion) have a lot to do with his propensity to "start, stop and plant" plant his foot on quick out patterns. He is so good at selling his pattern that he typically shakes off a CB to make himself open. That being said - there is one part of our game where I think Sammy could really help and it mirrors the bubble screens from college (i.e. it gets him in space): Special teams: 1) He has the ability to catch a kickoff or punt. Check 2) He is elusive when approaching tacklers. Check 3) World class speed. Check 4) Ability to break tackles if applicable. Check 5) Running straight ahead doesn't put stress on that injured foot or ankle. Check. Adding Sammy as a punt returner and kick off returner would put him in space and we'd be able to see his talents on full display. Certainly, if he wants that "big contract" he'd gonna need to contribute in other ways. Thoughts?

Any word on calling hours? Anyone want to pitch in and send an Edible Arrangement?

BREAKING: Sammy had some corn in his stool.

Ribs, hip, foot, ankle....we can re-build him.

My fantasy draft board looks like a scrambled egg on the tile floor. Not sure where to start.

This is getting tough. Fine then: Goodwin, Graham, Tavaris Jackson and Da'Rick Rogers. /end thread

Point taken. Goodwin, then Graham, then Jackson.

Same can be said for TJ Graham. So it's a tie. Goodwin, TJ Graham and Bo Jackson.

Truth!!!!!!

The dive bar where that gal was buying you Pabst Blue Ribbons last time...don't you remember?

September 10th you'll be buying rounds in the Van Miller Club.

More shocked you found a wife (did she voluntarily say her vows or did you dub in her consent via the PA system?)

Not sure what your source is but I read the meeting minutes from the subsequent Owners' retreat in New Orleans (may have been back in 2009) and the argument ensued wherein the owners tabled further discussion re. ownership in the same city because it would violate the anti-trust at the local level. Since the discussion was tabled, it really has never been resolved in Pegula's favor. Hence, the reason why he has floated a trial balloon about Hamilton, ONT being a viable location for an outdoor stadium (Hamilton is outside the 50 mile radius contemplated by the NFL rules).

Has Schefter obtained the MRI films yet?

My wife is a lightweight as far as drinking...and she hates seafood. I scored big time!!

12 pack of IPA and 18 pack of Labatts Blue Light each week in the summer...I'd say total of $30 Bottles of Gin, Tequila and Captn Morgans each summer...$80 Red wine...$40 month Averages out to $160-180/month

Thankfully, Florio doesn't know about the rule against one person owning two professional franchises in the same city. That little nugget has been swept under the rug and should stay there for decades.

I never root for a guy to get injured...then I think about Jarvis Landry's hit on AW and have bad thoughts.

Perhaps more intriguing is this: Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill walked off the practice field with trainers. Miami already has one key injury this week in RB Jay Ajayi.

Good point. Never thought of it that way. ?? I'm not the smartest guy in the room. Sorry. Didn't understand this post.
