    WAY too early to make that assessment. The difference between the two already is that Meachem has shown he'll practice through the pain (yesterday aside). Donte Streetclothes never did that.

    Nobody knows what is going on with the injury anyway, until Payton talks about it today.

    actually its a fair comparison. he showed up weeks ago at camp completely out of shape which hasnt gone over well with sean payton. maybe this mystery injury is directly related to still being out of shape.

    I read somewhere online that he showed up 19 pounds overweight. Do you know if there is any truth to that?

    i read an article when it was first apparent he was much heavier and not close to shape upon reporting. he said each time he visited a team before the draft they kept feeding him something else so id venture to say its true.

    im sure he can get back to his normal weight in no time but that was before the knee injury. now, who knows.

    gonna have to avoid these UT flakes from now on. all that discipline phattimus instills seems to resurface.

    He will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery on Tuesday and will be out for at least 4 weeks.
