JaMarcus Russell / Of course Jeff Locke can placehold in a laundry bin

When the Vikings spent a fifth-round pick on punter Jeff Locke two months ago, the end was near for Chris Kluwe in Minnesota, mostly because carrying two punters on your roster is sort of like having a surplus of JaMarcus Russell rookie cards. One feels like too many, though every team needs at least one professional surrenderer.

Michael Crabtree / The Curious Case of the San Francisco 49ers Receiving Game

With the loss of Michael Crabtree to an Achilles’ tendon injury during offseason workouts, the 49ers seem to be in a bit of trouble when it comes to their receiving game.  This injury and their current core of pass catchers could make the team fall back to a time not that long ago where the wide receiving core had one catch for three yards against the New York Giants in the NFC Championship game (and that one catch was made by Crabtree).  Crabtree had a breakout season a year ago with 1,105 yards for nine touchdowns in the regular season and then added in another 285 yards and three touchdowns in the playoffs.  So, with Crabtree gone for at least a good portion of the season, the 49ers are looking for some answers to keep their winning run going in 2013
