Agree w/MD...through no fault of his own, MRob has been grossly under-utilized. I believe all that's about to change in Raye's offense. He's not a natural RB...but, he'll likely be a primary guy in the "taser" aka wildcat Raye chooses to run. MRob can throw...and block...and his ST talents are well renowned. BL: he's a keeper.

Gore, Cofee and Dixon. We also added Blount. Seems to me M. Robinson is on his way out. Unless of course, those other guys turn out to be completely useless. The only reason Robinson is still on the team is his ST skills. Those RBs gotta be able to beat that.

Too bad we never let him throw once and awhile.

He likes to hit people in the mouth, but he's only limited to special teams. Time to move on.

I think so. I like MB, but with addition of blocking TE, two big RBs, 1 LB - I think we have added several players in the draft who will also play ST. MRob is pretty much done. If we can find a FB among the two players we added yesterday, I think Norris will have a hard time making the team as well.

Dixon and Blount will not be used as FB's. They're here to break limbs and dislocate shoulders.

Is exactly what's required of a FB

Don't forget Jarrett Brown. He's an Robinson style QB/RB tweener.

Jimmy Raye is gonna taze you. Or shoot you with his Raye gun.

Yes to Robinson, and potentially Coffee's job is on the line as well, these guys seem like a bigger version of him
