Clearly that ref fucked up

David Wilson last night:

8 carries for 34 yards, including one run for 21
2 catches for 21 yards

Jayron Hosley
1 Int, 37yd return, almost broke it for a pick 6

Alonzo Tweedy- 1 tackle

Not a bad night for Hokie Giants there.

I love sports unis, I've got a slight jersey addiction.


But I can't bring myself to get a Giants Wilson jersey. Sucks, love DW. I have to hope he and the NY management have a falling out near his FA year and he signs with the skins or somewhere outside the NFC east.

No word on Ryan Williams I see... Last legit article I can find is the "Williams looks like latest Cardinals RB Bust" from 5 days ago.

Saw that article. Sounds like at least some people think he's being a bit soft and just needs to go play, but we have no way to judge whether that's accurate. He apparently got a platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) injection about 2 weeks ago, and I believe you're supposed to work your way back into things gradually after one of those. May not play in the preseason, but doesn't sound like he's done. If people think he could just play through it, then there's a good chance that'll happen if it doesn't get to where he would like it with treatment.

Me thinks they have a really short fuse for injury-prone backs in AZ. I doubt he'd be getting this much pressure to play from another franchise. Kinda fucked up that they're public calling soft after getting his knee bent the wrong way in the preseason in 2011. It was all "he's crushed and we feel for him and we hope to get him back next year, blah, blah, blah" back then. Now it's like, "play or get cut".

I think RW could get picked up and make another team pretty happy coming off a PUP-list in week 6-8.

The Eagles cut Ed Wang.

except for that INT, tyrod looked good last night. He was getting into a groove on that first drive til the penalty killed momentum, then he threw the pick 6. Looked good after that, until that shot he took on his last run, hopefully no concussion

 

[757Hokie83]

Wilson went 5 carries for 92yds and a TD
Hosley had a 3 yard punt return

Ryan Williams played, got 2 carries for 10 yards and a reception for 6

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Tweedy got cut.

Sounds like Ru is about to get cut. I bet someone picks him up though.

 

[Hokie200proof]

If this is true, this is worst trade sales job I've seen in a long time...

Cardinals - "Anybody want Ryan Williams? Dude we've trashing in the media all preseason?"

Eddie Whitley did not survive cut day with the Eagles.

I heard he got cut but I didn't know he died

 

[HoHumHokie]

Well, looks like DW is officially the man for NYG. Maybe the G-Men will make a move for RW.

I would rather any of the other 29 teams not in the NFC East make a move.

 

[wildturkey]

RW had 9 rushes for 25 yards and a TD in his last preseason game so maybe Arizona might keep him. And I read that Danny Coale will likely be a practice squad player for the Boys.

 

[wildturkey]

More Hokies cut:

Corey Fuller from the Lions
Roc Carmichael from the Texans

Bruce Taylor cut from Bengels
Nick Becton cut from Chargers
Vinston Painter cut from Broncos
Danny Coale cut from Cowboys
Cody Grimm cut from Bucs
