In 2 years people will have forgotten all about Bowe-he is the next busted draft pick so far.

OK, they guy is yet to show up at TC or take a snap, and he's a bust? Maybe I'm old-fashioned but I'll give the guy a season or two of actual play before dropping judgement on him.

EK and Sammy will start. Bowe might end up being a 500 yard receiver once we cut him and he goes to another team. At this rate he won't even be the next Lake Dawson. |

I dont care to hear any of Bowes excuses, he's not only hurting our chances of success...he's hurting HIS chances of success.
You are a ROOKIE, you havent proven SHIT...take the several million dollars you are being offered & GET YOUR ASS TO WORK. THEN!!! when you have had some success, you can go for the big payola...until then you are NOTHING. |

He is a Bust so far-but I am hoping he proves me wrong in a big way. |

Bowe has likely held himself out of a starting spot. That's about the farthest I'm going.
I'm willing to bet he gets the handle of things about the last 5 or 6 games of the season -- hell, I believed that before the hold out. |

Rookies can't afford to miss camp. He can't play in real action if he does not know the play book. This isn't High School.

Its not just Joe Fan that feels that way either, we've all seen interviews & read articles about veterans that feel rookies have gotten WAY out of line with their demands. In the real world, we have to work FIRST...then get paid. |

If he gets hurt, no one is gonna take care of him. The league and the team will move on and not care, they'll replace him with someone else. Who's to say he'll even be good? If you are in a position to set yourself and your family up for a lifetime you do what you have to do. |

Say they're a million dollars apart, to a rookie that's never had money, to a regular guy that's a lot of money.... The league and the owners make tons of money I don't begrudge players at all for getting what they can get. You have a chance to set things up for your family for their lives you do it. |
