The Official Ruvell Martin Watch Thread

[Tyrone Bigguns]

Day 4 and Ruvell is still picking and choosing which team best suites him.

[boiga]

Ruvell's a vet now, right? So odds are good he'll be picked up after the first game to avoid the guaranteed yearly salary.

Actually they picked him up before he cleared waivers. So he got his GB contract picked up.

So what happens if he goes to the Bears or the Vikings? He could be a #2 & #3 respectively on those team.

Personally I would hate that as he seemed to be a decent guy. Not a turd who bitched and moaned liked a jilted school girl when they werent resigned like Sharper and Longwell.

Facts. Means nothing.

You are freaking high. He would be lucky to be a 4 or a 5 on either of those squads.

vikings:

Ruvell < Berrian
Ruvell < Harvin
Ruvell < Rice
Ruvell < Wade

Bears:

Ruvell < Rashied Davis
Ruvell < Hester
Ruvell < Iglesias

Unknown whether he is better than earl bennett, but Bennett was 3rd round pick. Doubtful he is better than Bennett.

[Lurker64]

My guess is that he ends up in Kansas City, they have a pretty dire situation at WR. Bowe is a legitimate player, but he's in the doghouse in KC for whatever reason. Bradley can play when he isn't hurt, but that's not nearly often enough. Then you've got a bunch of guys with question marks. Engram hasn't really shown he can't play but he hasn't shown yet that he can, while Copper and Lawrence pretty much are there only for their ST ability.

I mean, the Chiefs brought in Ashley Lelie for a look a few weeks ago, and I think Martin probably has more in the tank than Mr. Lelie.

[Bossman641]

I think Bennett is scheduled to start for the Bears, not positive though.

EDIT - wait I think it's Arushamoa or whatever the fuck. Who cares, they all suck

You could be right, but there are better players out there right now:

Jerry Porter
Reggie Williams
Matt Jones
marvin harrison
Joe Jurevicious
Ike Hilliard
Travis Taylor
Koren Robinson
Justin McCareins
Drew Carter
Dante Hall

Ruvell is better at PR than all those guys.

It seems to me that Hester has had a few good returns in his career.

Ruvell indeed had a contract, and it wasn't just a rookie deal since he was undrafted. Ruvell was over a $1 million, Anthony Smith was around $700k.

I seem to recall that also Falco.....I think you might be right.
