Im glad Coughlin doesnt listen too some of the fans that post on here...We would have this bum starting with Herzlich in the middle as well.

What would those character issues be?

Hopefully Bear Pascoe comes back and we dump Beckum, what a waste of money he has been for 4 years and space.

To me, this guy is one of the bigger disappointments of the season. He inexplicably shows up to mini-camp out of shape, then gets beaten out by a rookie 7th round pick. Hard to be very confident in his ability to be a contributor . . . .
