I'm on board with that. Newhouse has more upside than Giacomini.

Actually, I'm OK with all three of those. I've been pulling for Breno since we drafted him 'cause I love his attitude, but he just doesn't have the skills to match.

---

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seemed to me that Brandon Underwood played a much worse game than Bush did this weekend. The pass interference call on Bush was kinda weak, and he at least showed some coverage skills out there Sat., unlike Underwood, who looked lost consistently.

You have to use the sarcasm font when you type that. :tongue3:

Newhouse has made Barbre and Breno look good. I say keep one of D-Smith, Barbre and Breno.

Barbre makes a decent LG (but no other position other than maybe RG)
Breno has RT but has upside but still needs to improve.
D-Smith can and has played if a guy or two has gone done and did well, but very limited upside.

I could see them keeping Breno or D-Smith.

---

Bush is usually in position. He just can't play the ball to save his life.
Bottom line is that if Ted Thompson can get something for Tony Moll, he should be able to get something for Bush/Breno/Barbre/Lumpkin/Whoever else.
I like Underwood though. Dude's gonna start someday, and be solid. As for Harrell, keep him.

But even worse than Underwood was Pat Lee. I was disheartened to see Underwood have a far worse game in my opinion than last week. As for Bush, I'm still not completely sold on cutting him. I think he is always on the bubble, but on the right side of the bubble. Suppose it will have a lot to do with what status Harris starts the season as. If he is PUP than Bush stays for a least some borrowed time. Then the last cut can be made when Harris is activated.

I thought Underwood was down right horrible against Seattle. He has slow reacting time, which is obviously not good for a CB. I also don't see any aggression. If you can't break on the ball, then at least make things fair at the line of scrimmage by getting your hands on guys and knocking them around. But he hesitates when he gets a chance at that, which isn't very often may I add. Don't get me wrong, I like his talent probably more than any CB on the roster after the big three, but his production isn't there right now.

---

Yes, Underwood looked like a rookie again. Of course, Bush would not have fared any better against Seattle's #1 offense, trying to guard Houshmandzadeh. But I expected better from our #4 CB, and #3 until Harris returns.

Imagine what they could bring in a trade......(snicker)
