Aaron Curry retires

[Subzero717]

2009 was a bad top end draft.

Crabtree man. Crabtree.

So when the Giants signed him, Curry announced that the reason he failed in Seattle was all that money made him think that he knew better than the coaches.

Now, we can put that little theory to bed. Dude just plain sucked.

Ruck Fuskell for not taking Crabtree.

 

[Subzero717]

Crabtree ain't all that. I wouldn't want him either. Although its better than what we did draft.

Yeh, he is only a thousand yard receiver.

Crabtree wouldve been nice, Orakpo would've been divine though.

Yeah my guess is that this FO would have taken Orakpo and loved every second of it.

Ruskell should call him to be his personal assistant.

"Ruskell joined the staff of the Tennessee Titans as a college scout in 2012" from Wikipedia.

BTW now I know why Tennessee sucks.....

I wish I could have retired before I started working........

I thought Curry retired in 2009 and was just cashing in his pension check from Virginia.

His NFL stat sheet backs this claim.

Once. As is our very own Sidney Rice. I think he's kind of diva and think he probably would have recieved the TJ Housh treatment anyway.

Curry sucks

 

[loafoftatupu]

I still say his single best play with the Hawks was in the 2010 opener when he T-bagged Alex Smith.

 

[Happypuppy]

He did pop S. Jackson with the Rams a few times pretty good. Too much of the time he would act the fool and get hit with a flag for gloating afterwards

 

[onanygivensunday]

Before that draft I wanted Crabtree... but that was based on Curry already having been off the board... so I was okay with the Curry selection at the time.

I was mistaken... along with so many others who thought that he would be a star.

What a waste.

Alright- so where did he go wrong? Lazy-addicted? what? He had all the physical tools.

Thats the thing, Curry succeeded in football using nothing but his physical tools all the way through college. But you can't do that in the NFL. If you dont have the mental abilities in the NFL you will never succeed
