tdk1984 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 He claims to have matured. If I were a team in need of a good QB (i.e. Det, Buf, NYJ*, etc.) I'd take a chance. What do you have to lose?* Pennington isn't bad, but he's Mr. Glass. If he were more fragile, all you'd have to do is look at him funny and he'd get hurt. Not changing until the Dallas Stars give all their pre-Dallas history, logos, colors, unis, name, etc. to the Minnesota Wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too?

SEMOSTLfan Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I don't think he's worth the risk, everyone thought he learned his lesson after he was forced to sit out a year but obviously that wasn't enough of a whack upside the head. Bottom line is he's screwed up this many times, he will do it again. World Champions: 1926 1931 1934 1942 1944 1946 1964 1967 1982 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Many scouts say that he has more potential than michael so i would sign him. But let him play in nfl europe as the starter than if he can prove himself bring him to the real show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nation Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I say why not, sign him for cheap, and lets see what the kid could do, he's bound to mature. This isn't the same as the Broncos drafting Clarett in the 3rd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCHitman Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I wouldn't touch Marcus until he showed me that he could handle the money & life playing somewhere like the CFL.

The_Admiral Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 If you can take a flyer on him, just sign him to the league minimum, why not? He's not in a position to ask for much now.

paynomind Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I'm not entirely sure I'm ready to write this kid off like the rest of you are. What exactly did he do? Stepped on an opponant's ankle, and smoked a little weed? Hell, i've done worse.I'd invite him to camp. See what he's got. Might make a decent slot receiver. Could be a Randle-El with the throwing.
