Quote:You don't realize it's possible he feels the player Colvin will be is going to be better next year than anyone we could have picked (like McGill) this year?

 

What would you be saying if McGill turns out to be a C+, B player in 2015 even after a year under his belt, and Colvin is looking B+, A as a rookie after sitting a year?

 

That's his gamble.  Yes, gamble.

I would say that is fine if we are stacked already.  The Niners and Seahawks can afford to gamble on injured players with their rosters, we can't with this roster.  That is what I am trying to say.  I know we are not "one player away", but still, we need depth badly at other positions. 

 

Hopefully the gamble on Colvin is a good one and he does turn into a starter at nickel or something in 2015.  Hopefully Linder starts at RG this year and plays well, making Caldwell look good.  I won't be mad.  Just expressing my current thoughts.
