[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 153981, member: 227"] [b]Re: PACK:CUT & TRADE VETS KGB, FRANKS, MANUEL & FERGUSON?[/b] I can't. Manuel is the only veteran at Safety. Besides that, we have Collins who is entering his third year but is inconsistent, an unknown returning from injury who will be in only his third year that has yet to see any extended field time in his brief NFL career, a rookie with questionable coverage skills, and a 2nd year player that looked good in practice, but never cracked the Safety spot despite some weak play by the safeties for most of the year. It is too risky to have your back-up options be a player coming of a major injury, and a second year player that has potential but hasn't gotten himself more playing time (this is assuming that Aaron Rouse starts). I'd feel a whole lot more comfortable with someone like Manuel at least on the roster to point things out to the guys and be a safety net, even given all his struggles. The guy was a starter on a Superbowl bound team, and that isn't easy. Yes he only became a starter once the original starting S went down (Ken Hamlin, was it?), but it must say something good about him that even with Manuel playing, the Seahawks were good enough to get to the Superbowl. Heck, if it comes down to either Manuel or our DB coach Kurt S. being the guys that the other Safeties turn to advice for, I'd rather it be Manuel. [/QUOTE]
