but as i pointed out 8 of those 11 were from one injury last year. to me that is not injury prone but rather a guy who had an injury. a guy could get hurt in training camp and miss all 16 games...does that make him injury prone? what if in the previous five seasons he had missed 4 more games? so 20 games missed in 6 seasons. is that really injury prone?mrc44 wrote: Missing 11 games due to injuries in the last two seasons tends to make me believe he is injury prone. His age is not a concern to just the casual fan. The NFL is becoming a faster game with stronger players, who hit harder and harder. At the age of 25, a man's body is fully grown and the older you get after that, the more fragile you get. I dont understand what being a casual fan has to do with age concerns. It would be different if he was 29 and he had no injury history.
@StribDW: I asked Frazier if Cassel signing revived temptation of Webb to WR: "I'm not thinking that way. Things could change. But I see him as a QB."

I agree, they'll still address WR in the draft. But let's not forget Greg Childs, and Chris Summers, they are still competing for a spot.Eli wrote: Absolutely. This changes nothing in their draft plans. The WR lineup still looks like this:
Greg Jennings
Jerome Simpson
Jarius Wright
Stephen Burton
They'll draft a WR in the first round. Period. If they draft a decent one, he'll just be coming into his own at about the same time Greg Jennings is spending most Sundays on the sidelines in street clothes.
Why does Fraizer keeps saying stupid sh%t like this? Remember his comment about our DBs a few years ago? Fine, if he doesnt want Webb as a WR, just say so. But dont say you see him as a QB. That shows utter ignorance.dead_poet wrote:

Oh, they are just as happy as pigs in .........Mothman wrote: LOL! I'm sure that news will just delight Packers fans.
You know what my fear is? They cut Webb and he goes to some other team and becomes a top WR.PurpleKoolaid wrote: Why does Fraizer keeps saying stupid sh%t like this?

From everything I've heard and read about Frazier, he is the furthest thing from ignorant. He's very consistent in how he approaches matters such as these and changing his message just to appease the fanbase would be irrelevant in how he wants to coach his team.PurpleKoolaid wrote: Why does Fraizer keeps saying stupid sh%t like this?

Maybe we can trade him to Seattle. They need a wildcat type QB to back up Wilson.80 PurplePride 84 wrote:Webb is not a WR right now because he can't catch and runs poor routes. What's the sense of changing him now? Did he getter better at those things while being a QB for 3 years? Can he fix them in one off-season? Doubt it.
The guy is a Wildcat QB and that is it. I think they should try to take advantage of his athleticism on returns but really he's a man without a position.
