No. My wife has clotting issues, so I'm relatively well versed in this particular area of medicine, lol.

Linval is the only real proven talent that we have at DT. Rodgers was a good DT 3-4 years ago, Kuhn hasn't played nearly enough and Austin is constantly injured.

We need another DT

Could be right but Linval and Shaun will babysit Austin . That been said it appears the FO is giving Austin his shot. Better take this opportuniry and run with it or else.

Austin is basically getting the Barden treatment: Now's your time to break out, or you're gone the following year.

LOVE IT... cheap and he's a mammoth of a man if he can stay healthy. Beast against the run. Guy takes up 3 blockers, not 2 :D

It currently is. Unfortunately, last year she got bi-lateral pulmonary emboli after being non-symptomatic (and not on an AC regimen) for over 8 years. Definitely a scary situation. Messed up thing is her leg was bothering her for a bit, so the doctor sent her for an ultrasound. It came back negative. 5 days later her lungs were full of clots that broke off her DVT. Luckily, she's doing well now and on a course of treatment.

I agree. Right now, I have Marvin Austin pencilled in as a bust, and Kuhn hasn't proven anything either. And like you said, it's been a while since Rodgers scared anyone.

But still, at least this gives a little depth. I do think Rodgers can improve the unit.

Granted we didn't get a full time starter in Rogers, but we did get a solid rotational piece to add to the mix. It may not be the​ answer, but it certainly is part of it.
