Here's to hoping that Lattimore actually comes back from his injury. Also I have my fingers crossed that we bring back Hunter next season.

I just don't see a happy ending with Lattimore.......good dude but his injuries were just too horrific.

Yup. It would be different if Hunter still had years left on his deal. He would surely get claimed under those circumstances.

But he's a pending FA and coming off a serious injury. The chances he's claimed is slim, and even slimmer he signs an extension with another team. He will be a UFA in the off-season, and I think chances are good we bring him back on a 1-year, prove you're healthy, type of deal.

Meanwhile, this dude Winston has some talent but is an extreme headcase. Hopefully he's a little more mature now 5 years after those incidents. Might surprise in pre-season.

If he makes the team there's always the upside possibility that he pulls off a cleat and stabs one of the Seahawks with it.

lmao. I wouldn't even consider that to be assault. More like a public service.

Lattimore, Hyde and now Winston. Man our FO is determined to put a big back behind our line and do some punishment. We will find our beastmode ! Its all we have needed for a few years to push us over the top.

If we were willing to sign a character risk we should've just signed Chris Rainey... that guy was really impressive the only year he played and was a huge PR/KR threat as well. He looked like everything we hoped Lamichael James would be.

what happened to rainey? he's such a great athlete. gotta be a bad seed, to not be playing when you're that talented.

Yup, must be a headcase. Colts cut him for violating team rules. Not the first time he's done it. When you burn your bridges with one team, you burn a few others at the same time. When teams call the Colts or Steelers and ask them about Rainey, they'll be brutally honest with them.
