I wouldn't expect much, sadly. And more than anything it says our coaching staff isn't exactly satisfied with Pierre Woods seeing so many snaps.

I don't think there's much evidence for that statement. I'd been critical of the young'un in the past but this year he's done what he's been assigned. Has he been stellar? No.

I like Rosie.

Just worried about what the heck caused him to get cut from Houston.

The word was his foot injury was a lot worse then was reported - So lets hope that's better - However I feel as if it had a chance being healed before the end of 2008, Houston would have found a way to keep him OR someone would have already picked him up.

I think the reason it's a short term deal has more to do with having Woods, Guyton, Redd, Vrabel, Crable, and Robertson on on the team plus whatever turns up in the draft come camp time.

I think Rosie's a band-aid. Might turn out to be a real good one and I'm sure if he is, he'll get to compete in camp next year.

I think this speaks more to his knowing the system than anything.

Relatedly, Hobson won't be coming around. Signed with the Bengals.

If they were chasing him for ILB, could this mean... y'know.

I don't know how much Colvin has left, but I've always felt that he was a good pass rusher. Hopefully he will help us in that area. I know that it's taboo to criticize the front office, but I don't think that they did a good job adding personnel to the defense during the offseason. I did not like ANYBODY that they signed in free agency. They all seemed like JAGS to me. The FO has lot of work to do in order to build our defense back up to a Championship Level.

I envision Colvin being brought along over the next 1-3 games somewhat slowly. I'd imagine they use him in passing downs to create some pressure, assuming Woods is not severly injured. If he is doing well, then I can see him supplanting Woods in a few weeks. Still a lot of IFs unfortunately.

Good move by the FO, at least to try to shake things up and get some fight back in the locker room. Let's hope Colvin brings some much needed energy after not having played in a game for a year!

If Colvin is simply an effective situational pass rusher that plays on few downs, I'll be pleased. He doesn't even need to get sacks, but just help collapse the pocket and force QBs to throw off their back foot, hurry their throws, etc.
