Rookie of the week

Bill has been a great story and keeps getting better. Also shows how valuable late round picks can be.

It's so great when you hit on that 3% chance. They need to work with him on receiving--if he can add that element to his game, he'd be a very good, top 10-15 RB

He absolutely needs experience receiving and pass protection to make him a rounded RB.

Amazing to hit on another of the 3 percenters.

The fact that late round draft picks start or are just contributors makes them a great value for a team. That is especially the case when the team is the oldest in the NFL and will have an extremely high rate of turnover.

It pass protection, according to PFF, has improved greatly.

Yup, and how awesome is that! He already knows what to do with the ball in his hands so he just needs the opportunity to putt everything together. Hopefully he is healthy Sunday and they use him as a receiver a few times.

Love me some Bill!

He was my training camp crush, which I very rarely hit on

Talking about younger players, Hartman is the most annonymous player on the team.

He plays pool with Daniels and arguably has a great hair stylist - but does he offer anything else?

39 year old retirees are better at this point?

If that’s the case he needs to go.

Isn't Hartman on the practice squad anyway? I mean, who cares? I am sure we will draft a mid round development QB this year and that will be the end of that.

Do you really think they would use a mid round pick on a QB? They only have a 3rd and a 5th as far as mid round selections go. I could see them perhaps use a late pick on one.

I'm not sure they are in the position to do that, maybe I'm totally off but I'm guessing no QBs in this draft unless they get more selections.

There are some lines of thinking that you can't "spread the wealth" very much with your QBs. In other words, they are too expensive at the high quality, so you get your #1 and then #2 and onwards are JAGs. That doesn't mean you are lost without your number 1, but you really need high value OC work if you lose your #1 to shift the philosophy around other strengths that you hopefully have.

I don't expect them to draft a QB at all with their current makeup.
