He'll provide a great change-of-pace style to compliment either Fred Jackson or Marshawn Lynch. You'll soon love him when he returns the opening kickoff of a game to the house and then follows it up with a 68 yard scramble.

Hell yeah! Lynch has been showing a bit of disdain during the off season, he actually just started showing up. I think I would rather have him thuggin it up and being excited about playing for the team, than the emotions he is showing now. I would have rather traded him for a second (if we got lucky). We know Action Jackson is a beast.Lynch needs an O-line to be successful whereas Jackson just turns up field. Lynch didn't produce much last year because he had no where to run and got caught dancing at the line every down. I wouldn't mind having Spiller as the no. 2, only after seeing his college highlights.

They do need a QB, but that isn't anywhere near how bad they still need an LT, or pretty much any solid O-lineman. I think, given the chance, any of the QBs could be great. Edwards has great potential, but is a nervous wreck without protection. After that hit during the Cards game week 5/6 of 08 he is too scared to hold on to the ball and look down field, or even wait until something develops, but its not like he has the time. He is a great player when he settles down and trusts his offense. Fitz on the other hand, isn't that great, but doesn't resort to check downs to Jackson like Trent. He had a few pretty 40+ passes last year, but makes poor decisions and would be a better backup. I don't think they have really been given ample opportunity due to the lack of protection.

We going to try to do FF again this season?

This time of year kills with all the football news, and no sports to keep me busy. I've been doing mock drafts and reading magazines already. I think it gets worse/earlier every year.

I'm in for fantasy league if you want to do one. I know what you mean about the summer sports drought. It's like they try to force feed us baseball or something. Don't even get me started on tennis and golf. Can't wait for football to start.

Yeah, this time of the year is awful. Along with the forcefed boring sports, they always have a side of full blown drama in the football offseason that makes me more sick. Especially the past few years with the Favre watch. ''Brett Favre threw away a piece of paper today, when decoded with a cross of Mandarin and Latin says 'Ball will foot 2010'' I really don't care if he is throwing passes with high school kids.

If we don't get a full league this year, you are welcome to join mine again. Maybe we can pull out some crazy shiz.

Yeah, I didn't do very well last season. Not at all.

Don't be a douche. You had Peyton Manning, and Peyton Manning is a fantasy god.
