No-Show Sheldon

AUTHOR: | IN: Breaking News | COMMENTS: 2 Comments |

Not surprisingly, Sheldon Brown was a no-show at the team OTA today. Brown is still playing the re-work my contract or trade me angle.

To me, this is just not a story. I doubt Brown will be traded, and even if he is, big deal. Ellis Hobbs can start. Enough, already!

Max Jean-Gilles also participated in the workouts; as did Stacy Andrews (although both were limited).

For what it’s worth, word is DJax looked incredible in practice. I stand by my belief that DeSean will be an 1100-1200 yard receiver in 2009. The kid is just too talented not to make plays.

B-West sat out with a bum ankle. Reid said they were “looking at it.” No reason to sound the panic alarm, yet.

By the way, Greg Ellis has officially been cut by the Cowboys. Will the Birds show any interest? I don’t think so, unless they want to put the screws to the ‘Boys. We shall see.

I think Ellis wants to be a 4-3 end again. I'll be surprised if signs with another 3-4 team. He could help the Birds, but who do they cut to make room? Clemons and Abiamiri aren't going anywhere. Howard is always a possibility if he looks old in camp. Maybe Parker. I still say Ellis goes elsewhere. Possibly to the 'Skins.

The only role I could see here for Ellis is strictly as a pass-rushing LB. He's not good in space so he's not likely to start. Then again, Gocong isn't great in space either and doesn't get to the QB, so who knows?
