I'm having a hard time seeing how anyone can draw a different conclusion that the pecking order is exactly the same as last year. Maroney and Taylor will split the RB job about equally. Morris is there to sub in if needed, play FB, backup Faulk maybe run in short yardage. Faulk is Faulk. BJGE is on the bubble but a guy who could fill in at some level for any of those 4 spots, and play a few special teams if he is active.

Its easy for us to overlook from the WR position, but he is a good blocker.
Given that his role would be s/ts he could certanly see the field at WR in running situations. I believe last year the run/pass ratio with Aiken on the field was skewed quite a bit to the run. Not saying we run because he is in, but he is on the field in situations where we are more likely to run.
Not the most exciting quality in a WR, bit one that helps the team nonetheless, and if he is an active s/ter anyway, its a free bonus.

At what??

Delivering "Big Hits"? I would agree.

But most of the time they miss and Clock our own guys. If he were covering in the first place, the WR would not have caught the ball, for which Arrington gets a running ten yard start to deliver his usually mis-aimed "Big Hit". If he could cover, he wouldn't be ten yards away.

If you have room, & can keep him as the seventh ST only keeper. (LS, PK, P, Aiken, Woods, Slater and then Arrington)

But Save our Secondary! Keep him out of mis-coverage. And our own DBs off IR!

On that last TD celebration, is it me, or does Gronk make even Hernandez look puny by comparison?

Apparently you missed Aiken take out three guys on Sammy Morris TD run. He blocked one into the other, and both then fell backward and impeded the third.

And he helped on Fred Taylor's TD run too. But that was mostly Fred's singular doing. Sorry the Captain stays.

And the out-of-control missile flips Hamburgers...

I want to watch the game Stupid falling asleep

He wasn't even on the field. Three things happened to help Taylor's TD. Crumpler was the lead block on the 3 hole that sprung Taylor. Babineux blocked his own FS (DeCloud) and Moss had a key push/block on his man (Franks) which sent him tumbling into the other pursuing CB, Grimes, who fell.

BB likes versatility. Moss at LG?

And Edelman knocked a CB out of the way to finish opening that hole.
