Great blocker, Packers liked to line him up in the backfield quite a bit, has good hands and decent straightline speed, but probably won't be a significant factor in the passing game, and he wears a fire helmet around the house.

Can we give the Bucs Finley for Crabtree back?
Please?
I'd seriously do that.

I like the Crabtree move. Not an elite TE , but seems like a reliable guy to count on in all aspects of the game.

Yeah he is not a guy defenses are going to spend a lot of time worrying about. He will be a consistent blocker, play good special teams, and be where he is supposed to be on any given play. A lot of his plays in the passing game were a result of him flying under the radar being surrounded by several more dangerous weapons, but I still think he'll be a solid contributor.

Yep. I think the Bucs have some pretty good weapons in Jackson, Williams and Martin. If only our QB can become more consistent....

If they lose him they will have holes everywhere. It would be a bad trade for Pitt to lose him for a 3rd rounder. The odds of hitting a bust in the draft are too high. This is going to be a rebuilding year for Pitt.

Damn the Pats are about to trade a 3rd for Emmanuel Sanders? Yea because they aren't desperate for WR's or anything...

WRs like Sanders are dime dozen. The Steelers have won with a worse core of wideouts. I like Sanders a lot. It'll be a loss, but getting a third rounder for him is fine with me. I still have hopes for Cotch and hope he gets used better this year. The team has proven to find WRs in the later rounds and this is a deep WR class. Get one early and then get one late or sign one. As long as the team has Ben(granted if he's healthy), the team can contend.

Really dunno why every team's fans wanted Talib. Is it because broadcasters were all over his dick?
418 coverage snaps, 775 yards allowed. Not exactly teh shuntdownz.

Emmanuel Sanders isn't irreplaceable. Not sure why the Pats are putting up a 3rd for him.
Terrence Williams
Robert Woods
Quinton Patton
Stedman Bailey
One of them will make it to the Pats in the 3rd.

@caggiano_ Yeah bigger issue is #Bills brass is on road scouting pro days. Hard to hold FA visits right now.

So we aren't hosting FAs because Buddy Nix and Doug Whaley are on the road scouting. Does any other organization's ineptitude rival the Bills'?

Didn't realize so many people still liked Talib. I always thoughthe was abit overrated. The Freeman-Nelson connection vs Talib in college still gets me hard.

He's hands down the best CB on the Pats. Also, BB opened up the playbook as soon as we got him.
As soon as he got injured, we went back to no blitzing and soft zones.
His stats say one thing but the defense as a whole played much better with him on the field.

If there's a Talib Island, it's covered in happy receivers because Aqib is some kind of hands-off landlord who never shows up to hassle them.

Point being he fits what they're trying to do there. I'll admit there is stuff about him not to like but just what the doctor ordered there in Foxboro. Now go and get Revis.

Especially if the Doctor ordered a bunch of yards for the opposing receivers.
