God I hope Turner is being groomed and not going to be cut.  It's time for him to show up soon though.

Isn't the word on him that he's slow and unable to get any separation?

I have to agree with giving Turner a look.  Not too worried about Folsom, but it would be nice to see what Anderson, Wake, Clemons and maybe even Nalbone can do with a little more play time.

Damn shame we are in this situation.  But we should truly be a contender next year if we can get an offensive playmaker.  Time to see what we have while we can.  However, enough with this offensive line mashup crap!

If Ginn's salary is $1 Mil next year, then there is no point in cutting him, he is a good kick returner and third WR for that price.  I could see trading him for some draft picks.  I would not want to pick up a one year guy like TO, as was suggested earlier in this thread.

What really bothers me about Patrick Turner,is I think he Took Brandon London's Spot on the roster....London could atleast play special teams,and would be nice to have his size on the field now....

What no one has noticed is that Ginn has been solid as a WR in the past 2-3 games.  Ever since his "demotion," he's been catching the ball better, made a few solid grabs on the sideline in the Pats' game.  I'm not ready to write him off totally.  He can still be a contributor...

If by solid you mean that he hasn't dropped the ball, then I agree.  But he hasn't been a deep threat for a good while now, and he is hardly looked at on 3rd down.  I just don't know how patient we can be with him.  But you are correct, he hasn't been a liability on the field and he has played better than he was playing.

^^ that's what I mean.  He's not starting anymore, and the reduced responsibility has helped him, I think.

Not like Henne could hit him anyways.  4-33 on passes thrown >21 yards.
