lets ask for that 2nd and a 4th back? nice job mayhew.

 

[tigermud]

Does anyone want him?

Does anyone want him?

He might help a team that needs a big back. It just seems like his type of RB isn't what most teams are looking for now. Most teams want versitle backs that can catch the ball and have big play ability.

Again it was a player who was drafted too high. Then his injury I would just release him if it was me. What's his contracT like?

Soooo....What will Mikel do about his "Bubbles" tattoo?

He may need to get traded to a team whose logo will cover it up.

looks like a cap # of about $1M next year. Base salary of about $650K, $50K roster bonus and $250K of dead $$$. So it appears that a cap savings of over $700K but $250K dead money due to initial signing bonus.

how does this make you feel?

He should shut up until we see who the new O cord is. We may do something stupid and switch to a power O.

Joique Bell runs like I envisioned Mikel Leshoure would run when we drafted him. A diamond in the rough + a busted draft pick = a wash. We have a good multi-purpose power back. Be happy.

You could argue that we should have drafted someone else, but on draft day that year I didn't think it was a terrible concept. Thunder & lightning at running back. We have that now just with different personnel. Hindsight picks don't count.

Fuck it, let's just pick whoever Mel Kiper likes from now on.

Mike WILLIAMS!!!!! When Leshoure was drafted he was being compared to Steven Jackson, can't argue with that, unless you look at the results. Trade him for a 6th, take a place kicker.

on draft day I though....oh....g...we just got a shitty version of Lawrence maroney and he gets to run behind one of the shittiest run blocking olines in nfl history.....awesome!

I remember thinking that too, about the O-line. I hope he likes eating center and guard ass!

I thought that the O-line was going to be worse this year over last year. You always hear about continuity and time in the system. Three new starters etc. Could Mikel run behind our current line? Is he as stoned as I am right now? We don't really know.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Leshoure must have slept with Gym Shorts better half. Why else do you go from a second round pick to being okay behind a crap OL to being an after thought?

I lold in rl....

definite props to the oline this year though....no one is arguing that. Kept staff clean which makes staffs performance that much more sucky. And drove people off the line in the run game for the first time in forever.

 

[sggatecl]

Maybe they get lucky and someone buys into his 9 TDs last season more than they should.

Nah, they just needed someone to pick up trash around the Lions facility now that Titus isn't doing it anymore.
