I thought he ran well last year. Liked his anger too.

500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are. -
DAMN SKIPPITY. HE WENT FROM 2.5 MIL TO 4.5 MIL. COULD HAVE GIVEN THAT TO HIM WITH BLINKING AN EYE."LIFE IS FULL OF 4TH AND 1 DECISIONS, CHOOSE YOUR NEXT CROSSROADS WISELY. -
Could they get him back?Comment

releasing him and catering to get Sproles back was head scratching. And I'm a big Sproles fluffer. Blount got us a lot of tough yards last year.500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy.

Happy to see the old guys get rewarded, but Pat Kirwan always says it's better to be a year early getting rid of guys than a year late.-Slizz of WangnutzComment

I was really surprised that both of those guys made the team. I don't think Sproles really kept Blount from coming back as Detroit overpaid for him and his 2.5 yards per carry. But I'm really surprised they were counting on Sproles for anything besides returns. The offense was better after he went down last year anyway.Comment

not sure I agree
Peters was playing at an all-pro form last season. If you include the ACL recovery, I could see that being problematic, but IIRC, the difference between his cap hit when released and kept on the team wasn't that significant relative to the cost of adding other depth.Originally posted by BigSlizz View Post
Sproles was suppose to be an extra weapon added to Ajayi and ClementComment

Yeah, they would have saved $4 million if they'd cut Peters. I definitely wondered if they'd do it. But I think that as well as they fared with Big V playing LT, that was really because they masked him. There's a reason that Kendricks was telling the Browns D that Big V struggled with his footwork. I know not everyone trusts, PFF, but according to this article the dropoff from Peters to Big V was pretty dramatic last year:Originally posted by JuTMSY4 View Post

And agreed on Sproles. I will say it was a head scratcher that they used him so often in the opener this year. He would have been fine as an extra if Clement and Ajayi were healthy. Now none of those guys are healthy.Comment
