Because Brockers already has one foot out the door, if only for cap considerations.
And Gurley is now a shadow of his former self. No longer a stud even on his own team.
Meanwhile, Ramsey is an elite player that seems to have transformed our D possibilities and Littleton is playing at Pro Bowl level. Not sure if Littleton will be extended, but his current production far exceeds either Gurley’s or Brockers.
That’s my take, anyway. Do you disagree?
No, I don't necessarily disagree with your player assessments, but...
Although Brockers has been just a solid, not special player, he has been with us for a long time, he's been a good soldier and and from all reports is a great teammate.
Gurley certainly isn't the same as he was. I think part of it is his knee/leg and a part of it is our crappy OL. I believe if we had the OL we had the last 2 years we would be seeing maybe not the Gurley of 2017 and early 2018, but something much better than what we're seeing now.
Both of these guys, in my humble opinion, deserve to stay on our coveted banner for the remainder of the season. I don't want to bury them while the bodies are still warm.
Littleton is a guy I love. I think he is a dynamic player and he deserves a spot on the banner, but not at the expense of Brockers or Gurley...this year.
Ramsey, yes...great player. But he's been with us ONE GAME. I think to get the honor of being on the banner has to be earned by being an honored RAM. I don't think Ramsey has earned that yet.
All just my opinion of course.
