Ray Mac is Back!

McDonald's situation reminds me of Kevin Faegan (deliberately mis-spelled to clear censors), who was a D-lineman, drafted in mid-rounds by Walsh, who needed 2-3 years to get his knee cleaned-up. Then he was a key member of the DL on those late 80's Super Bowl teams. Patience - it's important with the DL and OL.

Except..... f*gan clearly exhibited both run stop and "Pash Rush" skill and was very, very strong to boot.

Welcome back Ray Mac!

That hurts Jean Francois, Demetric Evans, and Ice Sopogoa. Balmer has looked pretty good so far.

I see it as a good thing for our team. I'd like to see RJF Make the squad though.

I doubt we keep 7 DL's, but i hope so, I'd hate to see RJF snagged by another team if we expose him to waivers trying to get him on the PS
