In case you blinked and missed it,AR has put the Birds in position to stay strong and competitive for years to come.
I was seriously surprised to browse through the roster and find:
1) 34 rookies/ 1 year players
2) 14 2nd year players
3) 12 3rd year
4) 6 4th year
5) 6 5th year
6) 3 6th year
7) 14 players with over 7 seasons under their belt and of those players all are or are expected to be major contributors this season except Vallos and Edwards.
Roughly 67 % of the roster is 22-26 years of age and we are once again expecting a pretty good season.
I've been a bit hard on AR and the gang,but though he has failed miserably in the search for the Lombardi,we've caught a wiff of the thing and should be sniffing around for a while.
I see enough talent from the 2012 draft class/undrafted FAs that fringe players like Cooper,Fokou,Hall,Hunt and Jordan should be pushed from the roster and we may finally have a 53 man with players that deserve to be collecting an NFL paycheck and a practice squad with players we will hate to lose.Pretty interesting times ahead IMO,it makes the upcoming camps vital to my football Jones and I'm looking forward to them getting underway.
Once again the green koolaid is flowing and I'm sipping from the cup,let's get it on.
