Nothing major but it's nice to read about people busting their ass on the field trying to earn a spot on the team.

At least he isn't on crutches ,that is a good sign that he is able to put weight on it.

Damn.

he's out 3-4 weeks supposedly

fuck i hope that doesn't hamper him for the rest of the season

How would it? What's a DT's job?

Easy. Make sure the o-line stays off of our linebackers.

Not much to learn.

LeShoure out for the season...

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I'm not worried about losing Leshoure. He'll be back next year and most likely never be the same. We'll draft another RB high-in-the-draft in any case.

With the release of Preston Dial (Who was my pick to replace Felton at the FB spot), Matt Clapp is surely able to secure that FB spot.

We do have a power-back even before the signing of Harrison and Bell. He's Jerome Felton...

Harrison is most likely to secure a spot over Bell.

Our core will be Best, Felton, Harrison, Morris, and Brown.

It's still not horrible and I still dont see us cutting-ways with Aaron Brown. He showed flashes last year but wasn't given a lot of playing time.
