      Can't wait to hear the spin about "money morency" from Partial.

      Morency sucks.

        But if they're just kids stealing beer, or OJ looking for stolen items, we should be OK

          Lumpkin was the better runner in preseason, and Morency's only positive was his blocking ability. But that's what fullbacks are for, so I suppose it made sense to release him.

            I guess M3 does blow smoke every now and then at his press conferences. When asked about Morency, it seems he always said something like: He's having his best training camp since he got here; and He's on the top of his game... ...Stuff like that.
            One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

              I hope Giacomini goes to the Practice Squad when they sign a long snapper. He's the least ready for prime time.

                Yes, but Jackson was trusted with third down and pass pro at the end of last season. He didn't start out fast this preseason, but if he could do it last season, then he should be able to maintain now that he has bulked up.

                Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                  But 8 OL make me nervous especially with Wells and Sitton's injury.

                    You thinking they will sign Gafford? Or some other free agent that hasn't been on a roster?

                      I like that Finley made it - he is a TE project but with JJ still nursing an injury, I think he could be helpful should another WR go down. The guy can & catch and is a big target.

                        Agree completely. He could man the fifth WR in the empty backfield set and run a simple route out of the [edit] flat.

                          He can always be moved back to the 53 man if injuries necessitate, and he won't be active on game day anyway.

                          Congrats should go to Lumpkin and Hodge, who clearly played themselves onto this team. Of all the players on this roster, those two probably started the preseason on the outside looking in more than anyone else.

                            I heard that Gafford was neck and neck with Janzen, so without knowing anything about the inventory of available long snappers, I'd assume he'd have first dibs, if the team liked what they saw previously.

                              Although I suspect one of them will be cut to make room for a long snapper, I'm glad to see the continued committment to special teams with the retention of Bush, White and Kuhn.

                                Practice Squad might look something like:

                                Haynos TE
                                Babers CB
                                Swain WR
                                J. Allen WR
                                Carvalho C
                                Keenan G
                                Porter CB
                                T. Smith WR

                                A little heavy toward WR with 3. Not sure if Bolston, Malone or Muir are eligible.
