From last year 53 we have only 21 left on this year's roster, that's 40 % returning players, 60% brand new players. After this research, I have to say that I am even floored by that figure. I predicted in January that McD would get rid of up to twenty two players and everyone thought I was exagerating, man, he got rid of 32!!!! Let me correct that percentage of returning players.

It's just that simple. GBush, as far as I know , Haggan is an outside LB. As far as the captain choices are, when McD was asked if Woodyard was the STcaptain, he took offense to that and said that they were all captains and at no particular position. If there were only three captains, I would pick the starting QB on offense (Orton), Bailey on defense and Woodyard on ST. sess44, you’re surprised DJ isn’t a captain this year because he was last year, but considering captains are voted by today’s players, it doesn’t surprise me at all that the captains are different, BECAUSE THE TEAM GOT RID OF NEARLY 5O % OF ITS PLAYERS FROM LAST YEAR!

Can somebody advise me which is correct please? AS for the captains I find it all superfluous since they are really just honorary titles. The coaches make all the decisions. If the coach wants working captains he should pick them before each game and they should be players who lead by example. You only have three teams so you should only have three captains, one of which should be club captain. Dawkins will fire them up whether he is a captain or not, but he would be my club captain and my defence captain. Orton has to be captain of the the offence, and as for special teams, who is their leader, any suggestions?

It just threw me off since Williams was a captain last year. I understand that the team votes on it. It just threw me off since Williams was a captain last year.

Obviously they're the only ones who know what's really going on in the locker room and vote on strength of character and leadership abilities. The only captain position that's a given is QB, for obvious reason (the team leader regardless of his leading abilities). All the other guys, up for grabs. Guess DJ does a lot on the field but not enough in the players mind to lead them, at least not as much as Haggan and Woodyard do, in their eyes. sess44, the players and only the players vote for team captains.

Sorry for those who were not named in my mock Captains pick. Only allowed 7, so if you guys were gorgeous blonde's who adored me, you might have had a shot, ha, ha.

It is not a direct reflection of leadership ability. Anyway, here is my new slogan, we have to KO the competition with the "jab" (the short quick punch), kinda rope a dope em. If Kyle is the QB then that's who I got to ride with. (DD, if I like it or not) So I am in need of a craft store in Denver so I can make my sign for the Home Opener. Watch out Bungles, or you gonna get KO'd. It's all I got.
