This, but I never was a big KC fan.  Never really particularly liked any NFL franchise.  SD has pretty much been my team for the last 6 or 7 years.

The league minimum last year was 325k.  So that's the absolute least you could make as your salary.

Love how quickly the Chargers fan base writes Sproles off as a guy who was liked only by female fans and is easily replaceable. Never mind their coach is Norv Turner and they now  have no legitimate run game whatsoever.

I grew up a Raiders fan.  I didn't choose that, it's just how it was with my family and such.

Lately they have really sucked so I don't follow them that closely.  I kinda wanted to cheer for the Chiefs, but they're even worse, which is quite an accomplishment.  Even when they made the playoffs though I still couldn't cheer.  And I think the reason is because on Saturday's we hate the KU/MU people so much, how can I then join them on Sunday and cheer for the Chiefs?  I can't.  I am too EMAW.

What?

Sproles only had 50 attempts for 270 yds last year. He was primarily a 3rd down receiver.  Mathews and Tolbert combined for 1500 yds and are back this year.

I hope Sproles gets 300 touches this year to really see what he can do. He never really had a chance in SD.

Yeah, my cousin was a long snapper for Houston and New England. Those positions pretty much get the minimum no matter what. Since the minimum increases each year a player is in the league, it's had to stay very long in a position like that. There's not enough talent difference between a rookie long snapper and a 3rd year long snapper for them to pay the extra money for it.

More importantly, did anyone see how much Brees wanted Sproles on the Saints? "I was calling him, I was texting him, I was saying, 'Let's win some championships. Let's break some records.'"   :love:

If you guys are bored and want to make a case for a K-State Wildcat in Canton, here is the guy. He's got a pretty solid shot of cracking the top 10 all time in career all purpose yards. Most of the guys in the top 15 are already in, or will be in the next 5-10 years (LDT, Brown).

http://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/all_purpose_yds_career.htm (http://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/all_purpose_yds_career.htm)

He also owns 3 NFL records. Those tend to help too.

This is surprising to me. I suppose the return yards early in his career are where the majority of the yards came from, but that's a pretty impressive list.

Is it realistic for him to break 20k (5k more) and be in the top 5? That would basically mean 3 more years producing his career average.

Not that I love the short side, but there's no reason Sams and Hubert can't be as fast and Ell/Sproles.

Someone said (dig up the posts, I don't care to) perhaps the SS option doesn't work like it used to is because we're not at fast to the edge as Ell/Sproles.  So like speed to move laterally 10 or 20 yards as a pair.

I said there's no reason we can't be as fast now with Sams/Hubert.  Sams is every bit as fast as Ell, and I would bet faster.  And Hubert has comparable speed to Sproles.  The numbers seem to back this up.  Although I welcome you to refute the numbers I've found with some of your own.  If Sproles is faster than Hubert in this respect, I'd bet it's not by any appreciable margin to make the SS option more successful.  So the reason should be something else, like shiftiness for example, which I said Sproles was at minimum as shifty as Hubert.  At minimum.  Chew on that for a while before pounding on the keyboard some more.

So do you still want Snyder fired immediately?  I know you were saying that at the mid-point of the season, so I just wanted to check if you are still standing by that.  Haven't kept up lately.

Wow having Sproles and Charles to dump balls off to would be exciting as a QB.

I think Sproles and Charles are too similar for him to make sense in KC.  Would still like to see it thought

Defenders having to worry about 2 possibles for screen passes? I don't think anyone could defend that. Chiefs win every game 70-45

Saints still haven’t released RB Darren Sproles and now plan to trade him due to heavy interest, per ESPN source. Not being released, though

huh?

I heard that today on the radio. Not sure how it works tho. They want some type of draft pick or something before they release him.

they think they can get more value in a trade (prob draft picks) than in free agency with the cap savings, I guess.

For sure. Chip Kelly system ideal for him. And only had to give up a 5th rounder for what is one of the more durable backs in the league.

Nothing will sound cooler than Foles to Sproles.  Main reason Philly should ditch Vick is because it doesn't rhyme with Sproles.

Crap, I just looked in my search history and I searched for Sprooles.

I think if he can make people take notice this year that he can really make a strong HOF case.  His numbers are worthy but I worry there just isn't enough respect for All Purpose Yards.  He has evolved the RB position as much as anybody over the past 10 years.

You're probably right about Sproles being the most beloved football cat ever. Being a kid from Kansas and on the '03 title team really helps his case over some of the other guys who were clearly elite, like Bishop.
