referendum said:Looks like Eric Lorig will start at fullback tomorrow, which will actually raise the white starter level to a staggering five, assuming Trueblood is back. Of course the three white starters on offense are in safe, caste approved positions.
Lorig, by the way, was the only true (white) defensive end drafted last spring. Danny Batten, picked in round 6 by the Bills, was selected to play OLB. He's on injured reserve, so who knows if he'll ever get the chance, while super 1st round bust Aaron Maybin and roid freak Shawn Merriman continue to work.
By the way, someone should look at Maybin's pre-draft workout numbers in the spring of 2009. As I recall, the girls that do the "draft scouting"for the major siteshad ahuge homo-erotic crushon this guy -- kept carrying on about his awesome physique.So much so, that they kept reminding the DWF's how "athletic" he was, despite the fact that he could barely finish his pre-draft workout drills and was posting times UFL prospects would be ashamed of....meanwhile, Batten whohad 1st round workout times was lucky to be picked at all
Back to Lorig, expect him to have a very brief career. NFL teams generally do not like taller fullbacks. So I'm sure he'll bein TBay onlyuntil a suitable replacement can be found -- perhaps Lorenzo Neal will come back at the age of 40? At least he looks the part.
