I have been doing this long enough to have written off men like M. Ironside, who was undrafted out of Coldwater Community, signed the Tuesday after for the minimum. 152 yards is the league's way of saying nothing is settled. He learned to cook properly during a rehab year and now does it for the offensive line, which his teammates have stopped remarking on. It counts the same as anybody else's.
