Marqise Lee Now Questionable For Sunday

#32

Quote:I'm not gonna let injuries get in the way of evaluation though. We wanted to run a TE heavy passing attack, and kept Marcedes as a backup, despite his proven track record of ineptitude as a receiver. We could have been doing a hell of a lot more to address the pass rush in the offseason (you shouldn't draft 1 rookie and "call it a day"). Didn't address receiver at all really, we are still way too young there. I don't care if we would have had to overpay a bit, they should have found someone, especially given Lee's injury history.
 

 

They drafted Rashaad Greene and brought in Bryan Walters. Maybe they could have done more but you don't expect a guy like Lee to be hurt as much as he has been. They also had Tandon Doss, and who knew he'd be such a turd?


 

As for the LEO spot, you expect much when you get a guy with the #3 overall pick. His going down so early for the year caught everyone by surprise, but there's not a whole lot of options. By round three of the draft there are virtually no legit pass rushers left, and good pass rushers in free agency are hard to find. Like Quarterback and Left Tackle, it's not easy finding a top level pass rusher. You go into the draft thinking you'll have a healthy and productive Fowler, Clemons and Branch with guys like Ryan Davis and Chris Smith waiting in the wings, and a prize free agent in Odrick and a former first round pick in Alualu at the opposite DE spot, and you feel you're ok there. But that's how quick things can change in the NFL.
