With this we may keep Darling on I/R and have him later if one of the others becomes unreliable.

Hey, that's 19,999 for me. I wonder what gem of wisdom I can impart to the Crowd for 20,000 that will solidify my place in history here?

....Oh I know!

I wasn't a fan of Darling at any point and I'm surprised that he had been running with the first team all throughout training camp. I think at best he's the 5th best receiver on the team, certainly behind Bowe, Engram, Toomer, and Bradley.

Of course it sucks that he's out for the year because it's still one less player to work with.

Darling just isn't a football name.

Sucks that he got hurt but it I'd rather see Bradley, Lelie or Toomer in there. He really hasn't stuck out in my mind when I see him make a catch except to say, "He's still on the team?"
