Obviously we should see more passing to the FB now.<BR/><BR/>I've never been one of those fans who demand more rushing and get angry over not having a "big back," but I am interested in how exactly Reid views Weaver and his abilities.Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620157295698136927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955582067533116261.post-46055273477813516922009-03-21T15:23:00.000-04:002009-03-21T15:23:00.000-04:00I think a lot of fans might be up in arms about us...I think a lot of fans might be up in arms about using an extra roster space on the fullback position, but it won't be as bad as, say the EMB, will make it out to be.<BR/><BR/>Weaver is a versatile runner and pass catcher, so essentialy he could fill a RB roster spot (usually only 3 of those), so perhaps we only carry 2 RB's knowing Weaver will see a few carries and pass plays that might ordinarilly go to Buck. <BR/><BR/>Also, we carried 6 WR's last season, maybe we see that number drop to 5 with Weaver essentially taking one of those spots.<BR/><BR/>I have no idea how the roster will shake up by the end of July or August, but I see both of these scenarios as real possibilities.Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620157295698136927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955582067533116261.post-23560950926804764262009-03-21T08:11:00.000-04:002009-03-21T08:11:00.000-04:00I don't like the move at all.

Do we really need more reasons not to run the ball?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085850538234303845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955582067533116261.post-33364709800767614412009-03-21T07:16:00.000-04:002009-03-21T07:16:00.000-04:00A couple questions for you, do you see them keepin...A couple questions for you, do you see them keeping 2 fb on the roster this year seeing that weaver is so versatile. And how does this effect the draft in regards to picking a rb?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708260488840139133noreply@blogger.com
