I have a feeling Cobb has the return job locked up. West will have to show ability on coverage teams for ST's to help him much in making the team.

Realistically, he will be inactive anyway unless someone gets hurt. I can't imagine how they could have 6 WRs active for games.

Noted, but the bottom of the roster is for talent retention and emergency depth, which doesn't always coincide with playing time.

Ya, like B.J. Sanders!!!

lol - Sherman may unwittingly have had a lasting effect on the Packers franchise, by showing them they can actually operate with a 52 man roster, hence allowing them to carry a developmental player on the team!

Swain is all but done here. He's auditioning for another job elsewhere.

Before I read this I almost started a thread about Swain. I dont think I have heard his name in training camp, is he hurt? I wasnt sure he was even with the team, updates please?

Hes not good.

Swain's been hurt with a hamstring pull I believe. He just returned to practice after two weeks off yesterday. He was a decent special teams player, which was why he was kept the past couple years. He doesn't appear to have enough to stick this year and his hiatus from practice obviously hurt his chances to make an impression.

Thanks

Careful, I made such a remark and PBmax pointed out that the Chastin West Appreciation Society has been in full swing for a couple weeks. I guess I owe an apology to the early adopters.

You know your fucked when a Munchkin guild shoots down the trade.

Almost spit out my coffee laughing. Thanks.

If West can return kickoffs and play otherwise solid special teams, why not keep him if the team thinks his upside is, well, up?

I like Tom Crabtree, but dudes with that skillset are much easier to come by than potential starting-grade wide receivers.
