are you sure about that?We never had him on the OL. We had him as a fullback.

For the love of all that his holy, can you please get an avatar?are you sure about that?
Hows that? Now youre scared..For the love of all that his holy, can you please get an avatar?
I take it back. You were fine without an avatar.Hows that? Now youre scared..
I think we had him as a TE, not a FB. KC took him and tried him at center and finally G.are you sure about that?
I woulda felt better about Moore. The reviews of his 2012 performance were still very good, he hadn't been out of football in as long, and he made the Pro Bowl as recently as 2011.I'm not really worried about Waters getting into shape, he has a month until the season opener and would have 3 preseason games to round into some sort of form. It's not like he's a WR or something, he just has to sit in his little confined area and push.
If they go after Waters, it might not be until after week one of regular season. Aren't veteran contracts signed prior to week one guaranteed for the whole season? Or did I just make that up.I woulda felt better about Moore.

Waters is older and more of a long shot. I'd still do it, for sure, but when we got Moore I actually started feeling good about the OL. This move would be wait and see.
That's correct. Their full base salary becomes guaranteed.If they go after Waters, it might not be until after week one of regular season. Aren't veteran contracts signed prior to week one guaranteed for the whole season? Or did I just make that up.
If they are on the roster for the first week, a vested veteran's salary can become guaranteed for the year. That's why you see a lot of old guys signed before week two. Can, because they are only allowed to invoke the rule once in their career, to make their salary guaranteed.If they go after Waters, it might not be until after week one of regular season.

Not with what we want to do. That was part of the charm of Moore, he could block on the move so well.It's not like he's a WR or something, he just has to sit in his little confined area and push.
Yeah, that's true, but it's stupid.If they go after Waters, it might not be until after week one of regular season. Aren't veteran contracts signed prior to week one guaranteed for the whole season? Or did I just make that up.
Agreed. His missing the remainder of the offseason for fear of having to guarantee his salary would be seriously short-sighted.Yeah, that's true, but it's stupid.
He needs to be in here gelling with his teammates if he's going to be counted on as a starter.
If he's only supposed to be veteran insurance, then the idea to bring him in later makes sense.
I don't think its a "wait and see" at all. Brian waters will NEVER get blown into the backfield. This is undeniable about him.I woulda felt better about Moore.

It was undeniable before he took a year off.I don't think its a "wait and see" at all. Brian waters will NEVER get blown into the backfield. This is undeniable about him.
Doesn't matter really. Whatever he's got left is light years better than we've had for several years there, so I feel better if they get him.It was undeniable before he took a year off.
Probably true. But with Moore it was almost certainly true unless he fell off dramatically from age 32 to age 33.Doesn't matter really. Whatever he's got left is light years better than we've had for several years there, so I feel better if they get him.
I would hope, not believe but hope, that Waters year off left him with fresher legs than he's had in a while and he'll be able to perform up to his 2011 skill level because of the rest. As long as he's kept his cardio up to a reasonable level.Probably true. But with Moore it was almost certainly true unless he fell off dramatically from age 32 to age 33.
There's more uncertainty with Waters, is all. I still support getting him.
