A vet who is a liability at the peak in his career vs a rookie who will continue to develop and get better as the season progresses?   I don't hate the move....

Ricky Lee was our best backup OT in our preseason games he's raw as hell but talented

You mean like Greg Little and Dennis Daley?

OL drafted from the previous staff?  Sure.  A rookie has a chance of getting better plus they have already got a good look at him and must like what they see.  We KNOW Erving will play terrible when he goes in.  So you prefer a known liability vs a potential one that you might be able to develop?

And there is nobody else available at all better than Ricky Lee for depth? Nobody that actually played in a major NCAA conference?

I am with you.  I know that Ekwonu likes him, if that helps.

Why does it matter where he went to school?  Our staff got a look at him vs NFL talent and saw potential.  I trust Campen and am not concerned about Erving being gone.  Last time I saw Erving he was either chasing a playing sacking our QB or getting tossed into our QB by some 3rd string player on another team.

If they go in to the season with Nick Thurdan and Bryan Ray as the DTs they deserve to only win 4 games

Irving stinks but Rick Lee is a head scratcher

He is a large raw OT that outplayed his competition.  Either Campen likes what he saw from him or they are going to replace him with another player that gets cut.  Either way they saw enough of Erving to know he was a liability and wasn't going to get any better.  With Erving you know the QB is doomed.

I was surprised he made the initial 53 man roster but like you said, he honestly looked pretty good from what I saw in the preseason.

Regardless of whether he remains on the 53, it was the right move to cut Erving.  Bring him back as a coaching intern.

clearly are going to have to move on from a TE or two and get some depth at DL and OL
