I hope that is all we use him for is blocking. I just have dislike for him after the past 2 seasons.

Same here

I hope to see fauria catch more passes then pettigrew this year

He dropped a few easy ones too, but I like him more as a receiver.He so big, 6'9" I think, he should be able to block well too, but doesn't. I thought he was going to do good last year, and did ok, but I would like to see him take advantage of his size and take it to the next level.

If we get ihedigbo and pettigrew back then I want Dennard or Evans at 10

Can you imagine Evans and CJ81 on the outside and Tate in the slot. Teams will be forced into nickel package leaving 6 in the box and each safety will have to play his deep half of the field

Pettigrew runblocking for bush/bell

And if teams do decide to let us have 1 on 1s with calvin or Evans we just throw it up and let their 6'5" bodies bring it down

Fuck man I hate getting excited this early

Didn't SEA put Tate in the slot and it didn't work very well for them?

Well harvin was injured and so was rice so I think they had no WRs to put on the outside

I was hoping we would land Hynoski yesterday. He could have done well with us. I'm content with the Tate signing. Still wondering if the Lions are going to try to draft Watkins or Evans or go with a CB like Gilbert.

im neutral about it. he improved over the course of last season, but i would have rather signed a 2 year deal and had him prove that he could hold onto the ball. Also like Fauria's upside

I'm neutral about it as well. Pettigrew is a great blocker but damn, he's got to work on those hands.
