Capps shoulder surgery will likely open the door for someone to take his starting position. He won't be lifting, something he desperately needed, and will be held out of contact drills.

What's the estimated time that he'll be out of workouts? Sounds like something that could keep him out of next season...

They're talking about Taylor Pharr.

He's talking about Taylor Pharr, an O Lineman who was redshirted last year.

Looks like RT is wide-open this Spring.

Looks like RT is wide-open this Spring.

As is every other position.

Looks like RT is wide-open this Spring.

Thank goodness.

I wouldn't want it any other way. Saban is going to send these guys through hell and find the ones who come out the other end. Those will be the ones who will play.

From my understanding, every position is wideopen there are no hold over starters. Gotta earn it. So to say someone may lose his starting position, is kinda redundant. CNS already said .. Clean Slate. :biggrin2:

The RT position was "WIDE OPEN" most Saturday's last fall also.

i doubt if andre smith will play under 300 lbs. he will be more likely at about 320 lbs in my opinion.

if RC is still on staff, why has his pic been removed from the athletic website?

I'll answer my own question. His pic is STILL on the athletic website, but it is NOT on the football side of it.

Nicely done.

Somebody said they don't expect Capps to catch up, I don't think he was ever there. In my opinion Jimmy Johns would have been a better RT than him. Heck him and Darby usually had to pick up his "blocks" anyway.

I wonder if Quentin Groves sent flowers

taylor pharr will be that person

This brings an interesting point. Will Andre loose some weight and play slimmer? For some reason I see him playing at 290 to 295 and being more of a menace than he was. If he can drop some of the baby fat he's carrying, I see...WOW! Chris Samuels all over again!

andre weighed 357 last week. so him playing under 300 is a long shot

 

[RAM]

Andre weighed 357!!!!!!

Is there a list up of current weights on the players?
