OTA Drama

Ahhhhhhh, that special time of year where you have to continue listening to who isn't at the OTA camps and why. Really, they aren't called Optional because they have to show up. For teams that make the playoffs it was a longer season then lets say the Raiders or the Bengals who were out of the season pretty much after week 1. Some players could use the workouts and some need the rest. It is Optional, enough said. But i do believe if you have changes teams, or if you team has new coaches then you should be around so you can be in tune with everyone on the field when it comes to the game plan. In other words T.O. should have and showed up. As for J. Peppers of Carolina, well, with the contract and everything else, he isn't needed their now is he. he is a premiere player at the position and it is Optional. As for Fantasy status player, do NOT judge anything by OTA's. Some say to not even judge on Pre-Season games as some players don't even dress. One there that shouldn't is Clinton Portis of the Skins. Give him the rest as he is the golden boy there and if you want to be successful in the NFC EAST you better have him as rested as possible if you plan to not be in the bottom as i have you slated already and i don't see that changing. Ladaian Tomlinson is known for not caring the rock till week one and in those years he was the rushing leader and set records.
