The Merriman of today is still probably better than a lot of the LBs in the league, but he's nowhere close to what he used to be.

No where near where he used to be, but better than most LB's in the league......ok, I'll take that.

Julius Peppers is another that got popped during his rookie year, and he turned out pretty decent too.

Color me optimistic, but I am hopeful that Cush will be that guy we used to know.
