No doubt. This team is very deep. We all knew some good players would get released. It's a great problem to have. Think about the crap sammich that was left for Pete by Mora Jr. Holy hell........
You're right! I was going off my memory that we had 9 draft picks, I didn't actually count them. I guess we had 10 picks.Actually I'm seeing 12 rookies. We have 22 players with a year or less of NFL experience. That is 41.5% of the 53 man roster. The average of team experience is 3.11 years! It is scary that we are so young but PC has an awesome track record of coaching excellence and demands a high level of professionalism. This year is going to be telling, it could be his best year to validate punching his hall of fame ticket.

The current count is 14. I believe they had 10 last year.I don't have any frame of reference for this but it sure seems crazy.
13 rookies by my count.
Honestly, I'm not even sure what that means. Normally, a team so young would be building for the future. But this team sure feels like we're ready compete now.
He’s versatile. He can play gunner, returner, RB, and WR.I haven't been impressed with Dareke Young. I'm a little puzzled as to why he's sticking around.
Update: Apparently Dareke Young is injured with some sort of sports hernia. So it's understandable that twisting his body to catch targets could be very awkward and painful for him. Best wishes to Young for a speedy recovery.Matt Landers impressed during preseason and has great measurables, will be interesting to see if he gets claimed. Dareke Young looked like he can't catch targets at an NFL level, but I guess he must be an ace on special teams.
