Big Turk Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Why would you take a crappy player who is a troublemaker like Hunter when a good player who is a troublemaker is like Gordon is out there? Gordon isn't available is the word out of Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Gordon isn't available is the word out of Cleveland. Isnt there a warrant out for his arrest? Or did that get cleared up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tires are worth kicking. Glad they resisted the temptation to grab a seventh running back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Of the high upside guys- he's a good option. The type that could be a long term impact, possibly. The only concern in my head here is the short term need with Sammy officially gone and worries about goodwins sustainability. I guess woods, Powell, salas and Tate is still 4 and you can add little later though so.... I suppose I talked myself into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Good scouting report....calls Hunter a freak athlete but unfocused and unrefined...we have a good WR coach to learn from in Sanjay Lal, so if he wants to work hard and learn he will...if not, we know why this is his 3rd team in less than a year. https://mattwaldmanrsp.com/2012/11/06/justin-hunter-focus-is-a-skill/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should probably include him in your 4... Poor guy gets labeled as injured when hes not - and injured people get listed ahead of him on the depth chart. Not like.. a huge fan of the guy - but jeeze he's not hurt quite yet. Edited September 30, 2016 by dneveu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't label him as injured I was counting him as unreliable and looking at what was left if he ended up missing time during the rest of the season (a fair thing to look at with his issues AND more extensive playing time needed).

As far as right now and the immediate future - he's a starter til sammy is back or he gets hurt. Powell is getting his shot in the slot while salas is out, hopefully he can make something of it.

On a purely practical level I think a gm would be ill advised to plan depth for the position assuming that Goodwin will be a healthy starter for 2-3 months. You hedge against that risk with a guy like Goodwin. Like I said in the post where I kind of talked myself into the move more fully - if it was Goodwin at starter and some long shot projects behind him you are better served for a Greg little that can step in on one plays notice. We still had more of those guys than I thought so giving hunter a few weeks isn't a bad risk. Edited October 1, 2016 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the main knocks on powell making the team, were that he was having issues lining up. So i wonder if that's one of those things hunter is messing up.

boyst Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Bills have a hell of a field events team....challenge the Pats to a track meet on Sunday and the Bills are golden...Hunter also is a 7' 3" or better high jumper..and a really good triple jumper...TN is no slouch track program and he excelled. This is one helluva an athlete...there is a huge opportunity for he, Woods, Powell and Goodwin...step up guys... we got the 4x1 team a few yes ago. CJ. Tj graham. Goodwin. And we could have win with Kyle Williams as anchor with that speed. But Gilmore was also very fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Yes this was the exact move i wanted to happen Claim Hunter and put Sammy on Shelf for 8 weeks exact move ? Can't hate the idea. If you're taking a long shot on someone, always take the athletic option. Should we be taking a long shot right now? With Salas out too ? I don't mind the Hunter , but we need depth now. Bring up Lewis or something ! Not sure...he just went into an inpatient Rehab facility as of yesterday or today cleared up and inpatient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ability to get separation in tight spaces was his strength, Powell i mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 In reference to Hunter. Remember who our WR coach is. Sanjay Lal was able to get very good production out of a past knucklehead in Harvin. I have no issue putting Sanjay with a size speed guy that needs the light to come on. If Lal can get this light on. Look out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
