Best case scenario, we won't get Sharpton back at full speed until after the bye week.

And yes, this really, really, sucks.

Problem with Sharpton is he can't stay on the field. I think the team is fooling themselves if they really believe they can rely on him as an option.

Well, looks like the worst has happened. Torn ACL. Expect Kubes to officially announce it shortly.

Zeirlein's article is very good. I wouldn't mind dropping a second or a third on the right player. Remember we have the aging Bradie James as a place-holder opposite Cushing so we have a place for a good player in 2013 and beyond. We also have some excess in the offensive line and could see us offering, say, Caldwell and a fifth if a third seems too steep.

This is what top teams do. They fill holes while the window of opportunity is there. Let's not be cheap about this beyond what the salary cap limitations are.

Who are we trading the 3rd for?
