Dan Cody cut

I don't think Cody has recovered from his ACL injury during his rookie year. He's not the same guy that was a dominating force at Oklahoma 4 years ago.

There are a couple of guys out there that I do think would immediately help us out..

1. Ricky Manning Jr. - He's not a lights out cornerback, but he's definitely an upgrade over David Jones. Deltha O'Neal should be our third corner. Jones has " BURNT - TOAST " written all over him. And we've seen it all preseason!

2. Joe Horn. - Caldwell could end up on the Pup List. Simpson, Holt and Chatman only offer help as special teamers right away, and Henry won't play until the Cowboys game.

- Horn would be a legitimate stop-gap until Henry's return.

Wow...you want to add Horn's ego to THIS group of receivers?

Really?

YES!! - He'll only be signed for a year. And we could still cut him after week 4. If Caldwell gets pupped, then exactly how many wide receivers will we be able to suit up healthy the first 4 weeks??? Chad's iffy. T.J.'s iffy... Chatman is always IFFY !!!!! and Holt can't get open unless we're in 5-wide sets. So... to answer your question...

YES !! - Two Times == Uh UH

I also saw the Ricky Manning Jr. cut and thought immediately that he would be a good option. Problem is, wasn't he one of the guys that got arrested for assaulting a college student in a restaurant just off of the UCLA campus?

Don't know, but hardly the point to argue considering we just brought Henry back ..!!

I do know that he fell out with the coaches and management in Chicago, and asked them to release him, and they did. Like I said, UPGRADE over Jones.

Lookiing at the Ravens board, they are loosing it in this regard.

Yeah, they have even less reason to be optimistic than we do.
