A special teams standout how? As a returner? A gunner? I don't know that i ever saw him do anything on special teams.

bah, whatever :grr:

He's 4th on the depth chart. When you're down that far, a special teams player is worth far more than Ashley Lelie.

Deberg_1990 09-05-2009 06:36 PM

Yea its too bad Lelie wasnt kept. He surely would have lifted us up into the 11+ win category.

Red Beans 09-05-2009 06:36 PM

Mr. Krab has a hard on for Lelie. Ok that was wrong, I kid, I kid. There's something to keeping guys that are on board with the program as opposed to terminal free agents...

Wow, no wonder we suck.

You're an idiot. Copper has game experience, and had a decent year for the Saints a couple of season ago. He's not the best receiver, but he's not going to be on the field for the offense most of the time.

Please tell me what Lelie would have brought to this team that Copper doesn't.

Lelie had a legit chance to be a 3rd receiver for us and to bring some speed to the field. We need speed on offense far more than we need a freaking special teams gunner.

Regardless of how well we played, are we really that upset about Ashley Lelie not making the roster?

A 29-year old receiver with no upside? Maybe this time around he'll actually amount to something.

morphius 09-05-2009 06:41 PM

While I can understand not wanting either of these two on your team, I'm also not that big on even having brought Lelie in, so it is sort of a wash for me.

You do realize that with or without Lelie as a 3rd or 4th string receiver, this is at best a 5 win team?

JuicesFlowing 09-05-2009 06:54 PM

We haven't used any wideouts other than Bowe for the last 2 years, so i guess it doesn't matter.

Copper is not as bad as you say he is. He's not as fast as Lelie, but he's probably just as consistent in terms of routes and hands

Quinten Lawrence has far more upside than Lelie does.

That's why.
