P.S.: In reply to the Davis and Izzo thoughts, my feeling is that these two are just not that good on STs anymore. Do I think that the coverage/return units would be that much worse without them? No, I don't. I tape the games that are on local TV here in Hershey, and I watch the kickoffs and punts, more than once. Neither one can bust a wedge in coverage. I feel that it's time for some new blood and some young blood. Keep one of them, if you must. But please, for the love of god, don't keep both, again.
Just had to get that off my chest. Thanks.

Pierre Woods busted wedges at UM. For my part, I have Davis making the cut, Izzo not.

Re: Trade with Cowboys possible, Pioli in Dallas, Cowboy scout here
Who else will be watching tonights Cowboys game with an eye towards Scott Shanle?
IMHO just becuase they went and signed Seau doesn't mean they are finished with LB moves. I think a trade for Gorin is a possiblity. A serviceable starter is still a need.

Gardener and Alexander are good ST players. So were Davis and Izzo even if they are getting very old. But Gardener is currently the #3 ILB and Alexander isan ex SS, and has some coverage ability for a LB, same as Davis. I think Izzo goes, and Davis survives for his last season, before going on as a Coach assistant.

I agree, I know Larry Izzo is a special teams "Ace" but frankly the special teams coverage and return teams have been poor for the last couple of seasons. Keep either Izzo or Davis if you must but please, please, please not both.
There, said it, feel better already. Thank you Captain Stone.
