Funny how this has played out...A few months back we were worried Scheffler would be on his way outta town on the "Bus" express...BMarsh was a vocal supporter of the new McD regime, even regulating his boy Cutler publicly.
As the world turns...here we are now; Scheffler has been gaining praise through mini-camp and OTA's...BMarsh has been dealin with a hip injury (unknown variable in situation), off-field issues (domestic assault allegations permenantly stain reputations) and now this contract dispute and trade request...anyways...
This is what I'm thinking...with our depth at WR (Royal, Gaffney, Stokely, Mckinney, Jackson, Lloyd), TE's (Graham, Scheffler, Quinn, Putzier) and receiving RB's (Hillis, Moreno, Buckhalter)...we can probably afford to let Marshall, sit, sulk, be salty and whatever...
Furthermore, we may have his replacement on roster already...why can't Scheffler be that big body receiving threat? He's too big for DB's, and too fast for LB's, runs routes well, is intelligent, and has soft hands. Granted, injuries have been an issue...but this makes sense. Scheffler can line up at TE, spread wide, block for runners and be effective in the RedZone. This also helps explain the Quinn draft pick, and the Putzier re-sign.
The way I see it, Marshall can get as comfy as he likes, there might not be enough balls to go around anyway...and I almost forgot...I heard we might run the ball this year too...shhh, keep it on the low...I know, craziness...
