[QUOTE="Lee, post: 649061, member: 786"] I think a guy like Howard had a better shot making a roster in the ST route. He’s a guy that could play RB if you need him to and is more versatile. Nate is a GT man and I appreciate the work he’s put in and his attitude. I don’t think the OP is being honest with him/herself here though. 1st: Brown is the fastest player on the team and easily the most ideal for the slot. He is going to be really good and may be the best WR on the team now as a true FR. The next guy up for reps at WR is Oliver who we are trying to find ways to get touches. 2nd: Mason, Howard, and Griffin are head and shoulders better pure RBs. Why would you take the ball out of their hands? 3rd: In response to this - 1. The system was designed for Abacks to lead the team in YPC. Most of that was due to how well the other Aback blocked on a particular play. Honestly Lynch suffered last year because he was our best blocking Aback most of the time and lost touches and production due to that. 2. That is actually a false statement. Jarrett actually averaged 4 ypc more than Cottrell last year. 3. How has the staff “failed to utilize” him? Did Paul “fail to utilize” him as well since he only touched the ball 6% of the time last year? Or could it be that there are other players that give us a better chance when they have the ball in their hands? Neither staff failed to utilize him. Cottrell is a solid player and awesome teammate. He’s a guy you want on your side and to go to battle with. The fact he isn’t getting more touches just means that we have some talented guys ahead if him. [/QUOTE]
