laxpck Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 "John Murphy, of Yahoo! Sports, reports free-agent RB Trung Canidate (Redskins) has been in contact with several teams with an eye towards setting up workouts prior to the NFL Draft. Canidate, who has been out of action since 2003 due to a foot injury, has received a clean bill of health and has recently been timed in the mid-4.4 range during training." I thought that this guy had retired to that place where undersized backs re-live their glory days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Interesting that he's an ex-Redskin. I still think of him more as a Ram that also played for the 'skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallMeGreen Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 If he's actually still got that reported speed, he might have a future as a return guy. Being out of the league for 3 years, he's gotta be caked with rust. Ricky Williams came back after a year and didn't look very good. And Trung looked worse than Ricky last time I remember seeing him. I can't see him sticking anywhere, but who knows. He is only 30. Maybe the !Yahoo guy is just trying to give Skins fans more indigestion. Like we need more of that!?!?! http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/187503 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heidenreich Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Trung Canidate had a huge year backing up Marshall Faulk in either 2001 or 2002. He was unreal on that rams team. For us, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scruffylookin Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 yeah b/c spurrier liked small quick backs for his system Yeah, and there's nothing wrong with that. If you're a talented back your a talented back. Too bad for Spurrier that it was Trung Canidate that his FO got him and not the guy we acquired a year later.

Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I always thought of Trung as more of a Vinny guy. It was always my understanding that Spurrier went to Vinny and said, "You know...this offense is built around speed....so how 'bout some?" And then he went to Congressional to play 36. Vinny - being Vinny - got Canidate. And then - being Vinny - dropped this nugget to SI: "You can't get Trung Canidate in the fourth round," Cerrato said. "That's a no-brainer." No, Vinny. You cannot get Trung Canidate in the fourth round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazhog Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I thought Trung would have worked out better than he did... I remember him catching an option type TD pass from Rod Gardner. Those were the days! :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RammsteinSkins Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 what teams does he have of chance of screwing up if he signs with them? "John Murphy, of Yahoo!

cyfar Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Say what you want about Trung, but I enjoyed a ton of success on madden with him because of that lightning speed that never translated over to our real life Skins. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
