Billy Turner, NFL career

[BisonNeil]

Holy cow... the guy that wrote that actually used "for all intensive purposes."

Yes but also be clearly does not understand d the concept of FBS versus FCS. He twice referred to NDSU as a small FBS school.

Maybe BCS > FBS = FCS

Do schools teach grammar any more ?

Grammar is relative these days. Whatever makes you feel good. As long as you're close, it should be understandable, right?

After reading several reports from Dolphin-land, it sounds like Billy is going to have to show some flash during training camp in order to get the starting nod. This report seems representative:

This seems odd as hell. They moved him to LT, and he certainly didn't play well. However, that's almost like getting a promotion and then getting fired. Just move him back to guard. I would expect someone to pick him up.

Wow... giving up a 3rd round pick before his 3rd season is even over seems a little extreme. That said the Dolphins are horrible and they probably needed to shake something up.

I know of a certain NFL team that happens to be undefeated that could use some OL help...

...sounds like a good situation to get out of. Miami is a mess. Hope someone else picks Billy up. Thanks for posting this.

My thoughts exactly. He still had another whole year next year on his rookie deal, which is below average for a starting guard. The silver lining is whoever picks him up might have some competition and maybe Billy gets a little more money.

Eagles definitely should be giving his agent a call.

Or a 3-1 team that just had one of their OL suspended for 10 games...

I honestly think him going to the Dolphins was bad for him altogether. Unstable organization right now and he forced to play out of position as a young developmental player.

May be a blessing in disguise.


Also Lane Johnson just got suspended for 10 games this season for the Eagles. So there is a spot in the Eagles organization.
