    Family guy.

    He's been on the practice squad for 2 years and nobody's tried to snake him away. Has EZ done something this preseason he hasn't done in others? In the games he only has 1 catch on 3 targets. Is it just because he got a little pub on Hard Knocks?

    Fair point. He looks a lot better than Keshawn Martin has, though. They probably both get cut, but EZ makes it over KM at this point.

    Perhaps teams and coaches might see growth in his ability this pre-season when compared to the prior two. Maybe better routes being run, maybe they'll see he's gotten stronger, he seems more at ease on the field, etc.

    I wouldn't think because no one tried to sign him away from the PS last year or his rookie year that it would mean there'd be less of a chance that a team would attempt to do that now after he's had two years of experience as an NFL PS player and two pre-seasons under his belt. In fact it'd be prime time for a team to grab him off the PS I would think.

    Guess we'll see what happens with the numbers game at WR and what happens if he does get cut.

    Rick loves him some late round picks.

    I have a hard time giving up a pick, even though it's out there, for a guy going into the last year of his deal.

    Tried to give Elway an inside linebacker.

    Rick: You gotta take ownership on that.

    It's my fault. I didn't get up. You don't gotta worry about that **** anymore.

    That's a strong statement. That's what we need. We need to know we can count on you. Show it everyday.
