What backups on your team would start on other teams around the league?

For the Bucs, the only guy I can think of is whoever loses the Doug Martin/LeGarrette Blount battle for starting RB.

Hasselbeck or Locker, whoever is the backup this year, would start on a few teams in the league.

If reports are right about Zach Brown having a shot at starting over Will Witherspoon, Witherspoon would be one...but I can't see Brown beating him out.

Short of them, though, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. Karl Klug and Dave Ball might would start on a team who were really weak at the positions, but they work better as rotation players.

I don't think the "loser" of the Martin/Blount battle is much of a backup, I expect a shared role with Martin being more relied on doing the little things.

I can't really think of any backups on our team worth a shit honestly. MAYBE Amobi Okoye on a team weak at DT. I also think Dekoda Watson can be a solid player in the NFL, but not as an every down starter.

Shit, forgot about Cody Grimm. I think he can be a decent starter, but will likely only play special teams and certain packages with Barron/Barber starting.

I could've swore I've seen this topic posted a couple days ago...deja vu.

Anyway, he's not God's gift to quarterbacks but I was pretty surprised nobody wanted Kyle Orton as a starting QB. There's definitely a few teams out there where he could be a starter instead of throwing the young guns in the fire (Minny, Miami, etc).

I bet Evan Moore could start somewhere, I wish he'd start on our team actually, or at least get more time. Although Heckert said on a radio show that he could hopefully be a "30 plays a game guy" and that he probably won't get more opprotunities than he has had. Why? I'm not sure, maybe injuries stuff like dat.

Maybe Atogwe. Fletcher Cox probably won't start but I would think there are a bunch of teams that would start him right off the bat. Not that many guys on the Eagles truthfully.

Thanks to DMac, badgers, and SE for the sig graphics

Yeah, O.J is the only person I could think of. Fletcher most likely will start. Mike Patterson is out for the entire training camp and most likely will be into the regular season.

Dixon too. But the eagles organization is reporting that Cox must step up (ofcourse the other guys too; know the eagles rotate) and made him the focal point.

I think Craig Stevens could start. He has better hands then given for, a good blocker, ( best rated blocking TE out of college yr he was drafted )not that fast but he has some speed. Im surprised we dont use him as much.

Big ups to BK for team bar

We actually have some decent corners, so guys like Chris Harris and Drayton Florence could start on teams with bad CB's. Wesley Woodyard if we end up keeping non human urine man.

Warning, Opinions may be included.

Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:18 AM) A couple weeks ago I came in to pick up a few hours in the morning, but I was scheduled to have the day off. I didn't even ask for Sundays off really, but normally they give it to me
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:19 AM) I'm pretty annoyed I gotta work Sunday and to make it worse, its my longest shift of the week 7:45 am to 2:30 pm
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:21 AM) Drink some coffee.
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:21 AM)
Favre4Ever+ :	(26 May 2013 - 12:22 AM) Ya, I will be gone 11 - 9 or so
Favre4Ever+ :	(26 May 2013 - 12:22 AM) Gonna suck ass
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:23 AM) i dont drink coffee
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:23 AM) You will eventually.
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:23 AM) My hours are down and im spending money foolishly, so I gotta be somewhat happy I'm getting an 8 hour shift
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:23 AM)
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:24 AM) I get a lot of 4 hour shifts lately, and my days of getting 35-39 hours every week are gone. I'm getting around 22-26 now
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:25 AM) ive been happy with more free time and I'm also getting some later day shifts allowing me to sleep in, so im struggling with my morning shifts now lol
Favre4Ever+ :	(26 May 2013 - 12:35 AM) Ya, I never drank coffee. It's been growing on me though
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:35 AM) I can't stand the taste tbh
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:36 AM) I can't do energy drinks either, I crash easily
Favre4Ever+ :	(26 May 2013 - 12:36 AM) Energy drinks are dumb. lol. I do drink them though if I really need a quick boost
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:37 AM) I drink mostly cappuccino now, but I was a big coffee drinker years ago.
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:37 AM) My friend loves Monster, but that shit is the worst at making me crash
dutchff7 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:37 AM) Coffee leaves a nasty after taste. I prefer cappuccinos
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:38 AM) lmaoJamieDukes
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:39 AM) Yeah, coffee can leave a nasty aftertaste in your mouth, especially if you drink it black like I did.
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:39 AM) He thinks DeMarco Murray and Darren McFadden are better than Doug Martin
dutchff7 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:41 AM) I didn't have it black. Had some irish creme
dutchff7 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:42 AM) If McFadden can stay healthy. I think he could be a beast. Same with Murray tbh.
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:43 AM) Darren McFadden is pretty good, but he hasnt lived up to the hype he once had
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:43 AM) Yeah, the biggest issue with that is IF both Murray and McFadden can stay healthy.
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 12:44 AM) But they can't. When healthy, though, it's not a stretch to say they're better, IMO.
dutchff7 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:45 AM) Murray showed some flashes the last two seasons; serious flashes. But Doug put together a season that neither of them had yet
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:45 AM) I remember how amazing McFadden was at Arkansas
dutchff7 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:45 AM) I think McFadden could be a top RB in this league if he stayed healthy imo.
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:48 AM) I agree
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:48 AM) McFadden would be awesome if he could stay healthy, but he has shown us that he cant
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:54 AM) my brother just told me that Jeff Demps goes into the Chick-fil-a he works at all the time
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:55 AM) He needs to tell him to stop doing track and play football like a man
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:55 AM) lol
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:56 AM) I know he works out the sports facility right by my house sometimes. I hope he ends up playing football this year, because I'd love to have a legit local guy playing on the Bucs
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:58 AM) I see him cut before training camp though. Doubt Schiano wastes a roster spot on a guy not comitted to football
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:58 AM) I doubt he plays for us
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 12:59 AM) He's committed to track
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 12:59 AM) I think he could be a handy player if he was serious about football
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 01:04 AM) He'd be great for returns
RogerGoodell... :	(26 May 2013 - 01:04 AM) Not sure how good he'd be at anything else
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 01:06 AM) I said he'd be handy, not an elite player or anything
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 01:15 AM) Suns reportedly are going to hire Jeff Hornacek as HC
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 01:15 AM) Hornacek ....
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 01:16 AM) There's a blast from the past.
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 01:16 AM) I remember him being an awesome 3-pt shooter back in his playing days.
Milla4Prez63 :	(26 May 2013 - 01:18 AM) better than Mike Brown
BLUE :	(26 May 2013 - 01:24 AM) >_>
Favre4Ever+ :	(26 May 2013 - 01:32 AM) Lindsey Hunter experiment over already... ? >_>
