Kevin Johnson might be OK in time..Morgan?? They will find a vet if Branch is MIA as he has been.

I still don't understand why we're not stealing Fred Ex off Parcell's shadow roster.

Morgan is better than Kevin Johnson.

Potential camp casualty:

Charles Rogers
David Patten

Anyone got some 411?

Are you just pulling names out of your wahzoo? There may be some speculation on rogers but there has been no hint from the lions. washington stated they will not cut patten a few weeks ago. do you have documentation or just hopes?

I would like to see the Patriots trade Branch, assuming he never comes to camp. However, the Patriots are the only team that value him that highly and most teams aren't willing to trade for a mid-tier receiver then give him the money he wants. No team but the Patriots would even have given him the offer he got, let alone Reggie Wayne money.

Quincy Morgam is not even close to be as good as Kevin Johnson. I believe Johnson had a tendon injury, and that may be scaring people away.

Hear the bell bamming, it's time for a youth movement.

from my side:

IF Deion Branch returns and IF Chad Jackson start to play...i will feel confortable 100%

The Odd man out in Pitt. could likely be Quincy Morgan, who I actually like a lot. He does drop some but he is a pretty solid player.
I'd rather the Steelers cut Morey and keep Morgan but I just don't see it happening as they will probably keep their special teams captain rather than Morgan who by midseason would likely be their 6th WR.

I have it on 4 very good Steelers insiders that Morey is the odd man out this year. Unless he can fix what they've been telling him to fix he will be the cut.

There have been plenty of hints from the Lions. He was a healthy scratch in games at the end of last year because they of his attitude and he is currently 3rd string on thier depth chart behind guys no one has ever heard of. It would be a big surprise at this point if he makes the team.

After all of the things you just said why would the Pats want him?
