aussiebills Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 This is another thing of Roto World, Wany wants him back and he may compete for the starting Strong Side backer or back up Sheppard http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/playerbreakingnews.asp?sport=NFL&id=3289&line=227991&spln=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swnybillsfan Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 i'm all for it. bring in a ton of people and have a big competition to try to get three good starters who are good at their craft and have some capeable backups waiting to pitch in when the starters need a breather, the scheme calls for different skillsets, or the inevitabl injury bug hits.

FluffHead Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 He's a fit in the 43. Keep him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Kirk has been kind of an unknown for us. When we got him there were had some good words to be said and nice enough stats if i recall. smart solid strong. I read that Stache said he played late last year more and did well. I had heard/read he would be good backup to Shepp and also in contention for the strong side starter. I saw a couple of his plays and i thought he could play but never focused on him as a Bill. He was no where to be seen early on. I imagine alot of players will grade up with offseason this year and i think we can keep him without too much cap pain.

aussiebills Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 He had played in all but 2 games with 7 tackles 1 Pass Defended and a sack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 you sure? i did watch the games. Was he playing goal line or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 you sure? i did watch the games. Was he playing goal line or something? He played special teams and the rare mop up duty including a sack vs Washington. He didn't get many meaningful defensive reps but that's because he was backing up Barnett and sheppard. He is not a 34 OLB but he is a fit outside in the 43 IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 That sure would be nice for our switch over. When i read up on him after we got him i figured him to be a run plugger in the 3-4. It would be nice if we already have a guy suited to play strong side since we know Nick and Shepp have their positions already announced by Dave Wannstache and then can look to improve through the draft!

NoSaint Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Not long ago he was a prime name in FA talks. I think he'd be great to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 It will be interesting to see where our draft picks go......because we appear to be making an effort to keep your veteran defensive players And yes...I thought Kirk Morrison was horrible underutilized last year....he was a servicable starter and somehow ended up in the doghouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 That was what confused me. He was talked up preety good at one point. is he a secret weapon of sorts? or part of the reason we have decided 4-3 is the new look. Because we have the players to pull it off besides a few key ingredients? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) That was what confused me.

Because we have the players to pull it off besides a few key ingredients? Yea - it was 2-3 years ago he was a hot name as an rfa target around the league. Then just fell off the face of the earth. It was strange how quick it all changed for his career. I didn't see much since Oakland but what changed? He was a 100+ tackle, good pass defender, mediocre year in jville then benched here?

3rdand12 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) we aren't paying him very much are we? And do to his lack of use last year he should be a bargain. Edited February 24, 2012 by 3rdand12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 He's a great leader and definitely worth keeping as a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardinalScotts Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 should have been on the field last year. Thanks again George- the excuse of no players, talent level is low etc there are some valid points but decisions like this one not to play Morrison- at all !! Just add to the reasons to remove him.
