Kevin Faulk, running back/point guard - Dangerously quick with the right hand as he signs autographs and with the left hand as he attacks the hoop. Clearly a player in his day. Delivers a sick, full-court bounce pass.
Matt Cassel, backup QB/off guard - Make that way off guard. The Cassels are throwers by trade, with two baseball-playing brothers. Cassel had better stick to throwing 10-yard outs, not air-balling wing threes.
Pierre Woods, linebacker/slashing forward - Sharpest elbows on the floor. Runs well for a 250-plus pounder. I would definitely watch this guy in training camp this summer as the Pats try to get younger at linebacker. His hands were atrocious, though, so don't expect many picks.
Logan Mankins, offensive guard/power forward - The former rodeo star must have had a hoop on his family's Northern California ranch. Made great use of his 300-pound frame as defenders simply peeled off him near the hoop.
Russ Hochstein, offensive line/hoop menace - No perimeter game, no post game, no defense and very little speed up the floor. Gosh, he's versatile on the football field, though.
Don Davis, retired linebacker/player-coach - Miles of suicide squad sprints have taken their toll on Davis' 34-year-old legs.

How would you guys feel if one of your big guns went down for the year in a chairty basketball game?
..**** happens.
whos to say they wont get injured walking to their car or around the house? They have things they enjoy away from football and no team should ever control what a player should or can do away from football.
its a shame if it happens though..like Edwards who got hurt in flag football i believe

I guess that's the way I would feel too. But it would suck to have a season ruined from something fluky like that happening. If Jason Taylor or Tom Brady were to go down in a chairty B-ball game, it would be devistating for Dolphins/Patriots fans.

it would be devastating but as pissed off as youd be at first..you would eventually realize..theres other things besides football and they were doing it for a good cause.
these guys are competitive..still young .. you just pray for the best
I'd be pissed if someone got hurt, but FYI, the Pats aren't the only team who have their players go out and do stuff like this for charity.
Well yeah, these guys aren't kept in nonactive chambers in the off-season. But there are clauses such as ones that prohibit the players from riding motorcycles. (Kellen Winslow)

Yup, Robert Edwards was hurt playing flag football during Pro Bowl weekend. He was coming of an outstanding rookie season, too.
291 carries for 1,115 yards 9 TD's 35 Rec. 331 yards 3 TD's = 1,446 total offensive yards and 12 total offensive TD's
I remember watching him go off on the Rams (24 carries 196 yards) and thinking he was going to be a very special RB.
Funny Edwards and Terrell Davis both went to the same college, both bad great '08 seasons, and both had their NFL career severily effected/ended by leg injuries shortly after.

I guess a lot would depend on how something happened. I think any fan would have to be out of their minds to get really upset at a player for getting hurt playing charity basketball. I along with everyone would be upset at the SITUATION but to get upset at the PLAYER would be incredibly hypocrtical. A sport like basketball being played for fun isn't something that causes a lot of injuries based on lack of training or skill. We've all gotten hurt or maybe even missed work because of something we've done many times but once just happened to get injured.
Now, if the players had particpated in a charity Ultimate Fighting cage match royal rumble, ttheeeeeennnnn I might be a little pissed at their judgement.
