heh, i realize that Don. i was thinking moving the whole thread so we can have continuity going. that's the reason i dug it up instead of starting a new one.
there's a high chance he will recover fully, the cancer has not spread yet. he might actually even save his very promising career (he was going to be first or second LB off the board in the first round of 2010 draft), but most important here is obviously his health.
here's and article from...
also, the old one kept me logged in indefinitely as long as i didn't use another pc to log on, whereas now i seem to be logged out automatically each time i close the browser. (yes, i do have the proper box checked in preferences :P)
An article about Collie's role for Colts (slot for now).
PS can we move that to Colts forums? thanks!

i wonder why Kruger didn't line up ahead of him? still, i am very happy for Will, he should have gotten drafted based on production.
i also want to see Tommy Z more this season
that's bullsh*t man. can you try and be any more negative?
was he better off with Rams not even dressing up for some games?

unfortunately Bengals don't have a good track record of being fair to white DBs (Ethan Kilmer, Corey Lynch, John Busing) but at least they keep them on roster, for the most part.
Nelson might have a shot at ST demon.
from Rotoworld.com:
Bengals acquired FB/RB Brian Leonard from the Rams in exchange for DT Orien Harris.
A no-frills runner when healthy, Leonard showed promise as a rookie in 2006 but has since battled chronic shoulder woes. He only played fullback last year. Leonard will compete as a...
yeah, i still can't get over the fact that just as Kevin Kasper was actually make an impact he should have had years ago he got injured (preseason of 2008, playing for Browns where he was a favourite to be their thirdreceiver). let's hope Furrey makes it and starts this year!
i just don't see him and Swain making it... i hope i am wrong here!
also, i would hope for Brodell to get fully fit and getting a try out somewhere else.
Nick Barnett is a good player, but he has had injury problems, so seeing 4 white linebackers (talk about a super snow patrol, ha!) playing for Packers would not be that much of a stretch.
