XPRESS SIGN MANY FREE AGENTS

In the past week the Xpress have been very active in the free agent market. The team needed help on both sides of the ball and they got what they needed. The team made major additions by adding key players, that should make the 2010 team stronger then the team in 2009. The team signed 2 run stoppers 6'4 300 lb Defensive Tackle Billy Rutherford, and 5'11 285 lb Defensive Tackle from Henderson State University Michael Hill. On the offensive side of the ball the Xpress signed Free Agent Wide Out Michael Cotton a Dallas Lincoln High School product 5'11 175 lb speedster to compliment All Star WR's Chris Choice and Rashaad Manning, add in Melvin Harris and Andrew Ruben who has changed position from CB to WR in the off season and you can see why their is no need for a 2 position starter. The Xpress also went out and added depth at Tight End by signing 6'2 245 lb Mack Harris who played college ball at Stillman College. The Xpress also found a diamond in the rough and added 6'5 340 lb OL/DL James Taylor to help on the offensive and defensive line. the 2009 team had running back issues when starting running back Rocky Frank went down with a knee issue. The team had to use a running back by committee system. Right before the play-offs started the team signed Guy Smith. With Smith returning and the team not knowing the status of Frank who is out trying to finish up school,or either retiring, the team signed a Dallas Kimball product Jesse Wyatt a 6'3 240 lb Brandon Jacobs type back.
