I hear Marquette King ,punter, blasted 2 75yrd punts with hang times 6.5 secs, we signed him to a three yr deal, could be the heir after the shane lechler era....

I'll be honest, I don't know shit about the guys we drafted, other than the little that I read about them, but I have faith in reggie. It's weird to see that we got a guy who has everything BUT a good 40 time when its usually the complete opposite. I have a really good feeling about where this team is headed

Burris looks solid. Didnt see any real coverage highlights in the video, didnt really get to see what happens when hes not blitzing or in a contain

yeah i mean you can't really gauge players off highlight films cuz thats exactly what they are, highlights lol its funny hella fans be like oh i saw footage of him and he looks like a beast, well no shit he does they aren't gunna put bad plays in a highlight reel. but im sure reggie got some players he thinks could come and either compete or be a solid backup. in reggie we trust

yeah he seems like a big possession receiver/end zone target, but i hope he does more
well that's kinda what we need. I mean, we got playmakers in D-Mo & Ford, but Ford shouldn't get much PT in order to keep him healthy on returns, DHB is progressing but we still need a real go to guy. TJ Who's yo mamma was Carson's go to guy, its just when he went to him nothing good really happened.

I been to every home game both Miles Burris and Mario Kurn played in this past season and a few more through out their careers. Great players on and off the field. If what I seen from them translates to the NFL level then you guys are gonna get 2 great impact players. Both players remind me of each other even tho they play different positions. They have high motors and can get to the quarterback at any means necessary. Don't count on much as far as coverage.

leinart was palmer's back up at usc too. he already knows the offense from being with houston and he's btter than boller. good move, but we're still screwed if palmer goes down, same as a lot of other teams if their starting qb goes down.
