Worrell? I'd love to take you up on that bet.

He's probably the best special teamer on this team right now.

That's what he was signed to cover.. special teams.

I will bet you all $10k he DOES make the opening day roster. You said it's likely he won't... let's put our money where our mouth is. That's why they created these 'Phin $'s you know, right? It's the "Vbookie"!!!! Say the word, respond to my post, and I'll arrange it through the powers that be... can you back it up?

ROFL I love it

According to NFLPA, Worrell's base salaries are $595K in 2007 and $605K in 2008. With what the Sun-Times says is the signing bonus, the total value on Worrell's contract is less than $1.5 million. That's about par for what a veteran special teams ace makes.

I am going to agree wth King on this one. Look at the previous ST players we have had in the past, Izzo, Ayanbedejo, and they are pro bowlers. Worrell was highly regarded in Chicago as a ST player, not safety. Todd Johnson has more potential to start at Safety than Worrell, but they are 2 different types of players, regardless of stated roster position. No one ever thought Worrell would make the roster in Chicago, but he plays harder than most players out there on the field. He will play on special teams and everyone will realize how good of a player he is. I say instead of saying how overpaid he is, we start supporting our new team member.

It has been a slow day.

No disrespect, but I watched Worrell at Fresno State and the dude can flat out light people up. He has no fear and comes in with a head full of steam.
