Cory Pittman's Bonehead Move of the Week

This years preseason BMOTW is a no brainer, and goes to Van Kirk’s Bronson. Do I even need to go in to why keeping Willis McGahee at $32 is a bad call? I don’t, but I will. Just because someone garnered major street cred in college does not mean they will translate in to a quality pro, especially after 5 seasons of proving otherwise (see: “Vince Young”, see: “Peter Warrick”, see “Auburn Running Backs” for more info) Editor's Note: See Robert Edwards, Danny Ware, Thomas Brown, Kregg Lumpkin, etc.. Keeping McGahee at $32 is giving respect of the utmost degree where it is completely undeserved. It’s the equivalent of seeing Christian Slater in a bar and sending him drinks with the justification that, “He was “nasty” in Hard Rain“.

A perennial fantasy football bust, McGahee is valued in most pre-draft auctions between $1 and $2. He ran for 600 yards last year, with a plummet in carries per game, rushing yards per carry, receiving yards per game, receptions per game, and receiving yards per game. He did however show strong increases in fumble percentage and child support payments.

Things you could buy with the $32:

1) A great #2 wideout, with enough money for a good backup QB

2) Adrian Peterson’s left side

3) 2 Tombstone pizzas and 30 wings

4) Spackle, roller, drop cloth, and a can of paint for “drunken outburst ramifications” after WM puts up 30 yrds on 15 carries for the 3^rd week in a row
