Never said anything about an after thought about him....he is a RAM "now" and he's had an impact with us for sure, but as I said IMO a franchise tag denotes to me a separate area. I can't see calling a guy a franchise type when fans of another team can do the same for that same guy (as being an impact)
Isaac Bruce is kinda different to me because yes he went to the whiners, but he played in less then 2 years worth of games and really didn't show for them.....I mean a whiner fan could say he played for us, he was a whiner, but really he didn't play much and when he did he didn't do much at all. So I would still consider Bruce a franchise RAM.....Aeneas I put with Big Whit.....Jerome Bettis I put with AW and Whit.....Those players were RAMS but also players for another team and made impacts. Deacon I put with Bruce for the same reasons, he went to the chargers and skins, but really only showed as a RAM....he did his play with the RAMS.
