Williams says Testaverde inspired him

apparently this is a different article. sorry for the kinda repost

“He's just so explosive,” said Testaverde. “He's quick to hit the hole, strong to the hole and nobody is catching him from behind.

"He reminds me of two great backs, Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders.

Put those two together and I think you have a DeAngelo Williams. In my eyes, he has the potential to be a really good back for a really long time.”

Reason to make sure your team has plenty of veterans to impart wisdom to the younger guys. Need the leadership that comes with experience as well as guys who have been there and done that as the season concludes. Gotta be a fool to not see what Vinny did for his team and did for Jake as well. Jake's new durability seems to be a function of his increased muscle mass and improved conditioning. Jake would have to see how it worked for Vinny and through rehab had the chance to get alot stronger in his arm and body as well.Vinny's worth extended far beyond his skills on the field. What makes the best combination is a guy who has the leadership skills while he still has the physical skills to be at the peak of his career. Guys like Moose and Lucas and pro-bowlers like Beason and Smith. Got a chance to be special this year. Depends on how hungry we are. Balls to the wall.

    • More TDs last year in less games (double the TDs) and more yards per game. Those are some tough stats to brush aside. Career stats are good but we are wanting the player for what they are currently. DK had some drop issues too. 
    • I’m going with Nick Emmanwori as the pick right now. Charlie Campbell has him ranked 5th on his post combine big board and another safety is needed.
    • That is ridiculous on several levels. First of all you have to spend 90% of your cap space every year so the idea you can just not spend it every year is against the CBA. Secondly your job is to assemble the best team you can for the fans players and team. Not to save money for the owner.  Third many players who are considered great underperform while others like Luvu and Jackson have overperformed. What about a  great player like Derek Brown who was injured and missed all of last year. Was he a waste of money?? Sure pay DK a fools ransom and hope he stays healthy. He didn't even get 1000 yards last year which averages out to 60 yards a game or play all 16 games.  And lets be real, Jones and Watson aren't  great but they aren't being paid that much either. Real glad you aren't the GM.
