Quote:Can we give Lee and Robinson a chance to prove themselves before we write them off while still hanging onto the stale prayer of Blackmon coming back?


Im not urging the team to cut Blackmon, I just dont understand the point of keeping him around. Its obvious that you, and others are paranoid about him being cut, sign with another team and have success.

 

I'm pretty sure Lee and Robinson are getting their chance regardless of what's happening with Blackmon unless I've missed something here. 

 

The point of keeping him around is simple.  If he can get his life back on track, he makes this team better.  It isn't any deeper than that. I'm not paranoid he'll end up elsewhere because the team isn't going to cut him loose if he can contribute.  The only scenario where I see them moving on is if it's crystal clear he will never get things back on the right path.  At that point, there's no reason to continue the process.
