Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
OGSB, I hope you don't mind that I moved it here. I did so because not only does it go into current news on two key players (DL Kennedy back, S Teamer out for Memphis game) but its a great read on Tanzel who still keeps up with what's going on. And Man, do we miss him!

God Bless Tanzel Smart but getting Robert Kennedy back is a serious boost. He can play inside and out. Welcome back, RK.

Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
getting Kennedy back is big but how effective he'll be will depend on what kind of shape he's in.

And just in the nick of time with Washington out and Aruna still looking hobbled/slow to me. AA seemed a bit more active v SFU.long green wrote:It helps.

Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
Rams just signed N. Suh to a $14M one year deal. With Donald and Easley also there, I would think Rams would be shopping Tanzel.
Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
Why would they shop Smart? They're not paying him anything (probably at or close to the minimum), no reason not to keep him around for depth purposes if they like him.wave-em in wrote:Rams just signed N.

Tanzel listed as the back up to Suh for this weekend. Does not appear to have played much this year though.

Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
I think he was only active for two games and barely played. He's going to have a serious fight to make the roster next year. A change of scenery might do him some good. The Saints might need another 3 tech after Rankins' injury.
This one belongs to the Wave.

Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
We discussed this once before, but Tulanians with Super Bowl rings:
1. Max McGee
2. Warren Bankston
3. Eddie Murray
4. Shaun King
5. Mewelde Moore
Can anyone else think of any others? Did the two CBs on the Broncos get one in 2015?

Shaun didn't make the Super Bowl. The Bucs were victims of another questionable call in the last two minutes during a promising drive to score to take the lead against...guess who...the Rams. n/mRotorooter wrote:We discussed this once before, but Tulanians with Super Bowl rings:

Re: Former DT (Smart) enjoying life in the NFL with the Rams
Doss most likely would've gotten one for Super Bowl 50 as he was on the Broncos official roster. Taurean Nixon was a practice squad player so I believe whether or not he got one is up to the team's discretion.
