So they tag Cam to make sure they have an experienced LT on the roster. That is the intelligent thing to do when you have a rookie QB coming in and there are no guarantees they will find an immediate upgrade in free agency or the draft.

Right now Cam is a 1 year insurance policy.


You are acting like they signed him to a big multi year contract.

Apparently you haven't heard Darrisaw is the second coming of Boselli

That's funny considering he's my #3 rated OT. I wonder what that makes the other two? Darrisaw or several other OT prospects would be a huge upgrade over the garbage we now have. We know what we have now isn't working, so why not take a chance to upgrade the position? Are you one of those fans who are too scared too make a move, because it might not work out? Are you are satisfied with keeping subpar players? It sounds that way. If we wanna become a winning franchise, we have to change that type of thinking. We've been gun shy for way too long and where has that gotten us? We're always picking near the top of the draft and nothing ever changes. 

As far as comparing anyone to Boselli, I would never do that. He was the GOAT. There will never be another Tom Brady and there will never be another Tony Boselli. I'm just looking to upgrade players. If we had a team full of good players with no real stars, I'd be perfectly satisfied. Consistency across the board should bring at least one championship. If Lawrence is half as good as advertised, he will be the best QB this franchise has ever had. The smart thing would be to protect him.

Meyer said nothing about "as long as he performs up to his potential." That would be a different narrative. Instead, he was basically praising him for what he has already done, which is nothing. That's a very disheartening message to send to fans. It makes us lose confidence in Meyer's ability to evaluate players.

Could you even name 10 OT prospects in this draft without looking them up? I doubt it. You wouldn't know who's a bum and who isn't.

One thing I could do is look up 10 of your whine fest posts and see that you're wrong 90 percent of the time. Who's your bum RT flavor of the week you're going to plug in at LT?

You and Winger just save your whining for the other forum. As far as checking my old post, have at it. I never claimed to be perfect, but 90%? Gimme more credit than that.
