NinerBuff":3u717uof said:Okoye has an "injury" which will more than likely prevent another team from picking him up, plus on IR he wont take a PS position up. It's the mental aspect of the game that he lacks, so IR seems like a good fit.
Our backup P Colquitt just got picked up by the Browns.
The Haralson trade makes sense because Lemonier is progressing from DE to OLB nicely (and apparently ahead of Aldon Smith for his rookie year, but Smith didn't have a full offseason).
Overall, the '13 Draft Class is looking very good:
Reid - starter
McDonald - major contributor (replaces Delanie Walker)
Carradine - IR which is expected
Lemonier - 1st backup at both OLB positions
Patton - Looked very adept at finding holes in the zone, smooth WR with reliable hands
Lattimore - IR which is expected
Dial - IR which is expected
Daniels - Pushing for primary backup QB position, looks very solid and can contribute as a WR/RB/KR if needed
Carradine, Lattimore, and Dial not on IR. All put on reserve/non-football injury list. All eligable to come back after week 6...tho I doubt Lattimore will play at all this year.
Very happy so far with this draft class. The three above were injured when drafted so we knew we'd have to wait on them and the others have all looked good. We won't really know till the real bullets start flying but it looks good so far.
