That is true, and quite disappointing. He's a threat in open space, and we never really used him that way. The good news is that you can't expect Gabbert to suddenly bring out the best in Forsette either.

Until the Jaggies get a real QB they aren't going to be much of a threat anyway.

I don't know. Forsett will probably making a pretty good safety blanket for on screens & checkdowns. We all know the little booger ain't going to stop running until the whistle blows.

BTW, there's a lot of speed in this draft class, it shouldn't be too difficult to find ST player. What's the odd of Nading making the team, anybody wants to venture? lOL!

You laugh, but with each passing day, it becomes more & more likely he will be among the best 53 athletes the Texans can cobble together.

Before this year, I always predicted that he will somehow make the roster (may be not for the whole season). This year, I doubt he'll make it.
At best, he will be a phone call away, if we get decimated at LB.

I hope he doesn't buck the odd again.
