Nice to see the players just really buying in to give that kid a special experience including everyone clustering around him after his "touchdown" jumping up and down Very cool. Did he get a request for a drug test like Stephen Jackson? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sills) Probably, but I still think he might land on the PS, because they really seem to like him. Considered drafting him several times, made a big push to reel him in as a UDFA. I think they see something there and may wanna develop him. But he's definitely gonna need to have some flashes or, as you said, he gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason they won't try that again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe being on a practice squad and getting into a gym will help. We'll see. He's still relatively new to WR, so he'd be a good project. 2 minutes ago, John from Riverside said: Or they are going against a pretty damn good D line Edited August 2, 2019 by whatdrought 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is he was throwing to the man giant Mike Evans, not the pre-pubescent Cole Beasley. They did a good job flipping the WR room, but there's still a size void there.

Agree we could use size, but unless Williams stops double-clutching his balls, don't see it this season PS man that sounds crude ??

Mike Evens still does this sometimes though. He's a guy whose skillset would be a match made in heaven with Allen. Maybe they'll bomb hardcore and tear it all down and we'll get him in for a 5th rounder. Yeah... That sounds like something you hear about the creepy co-worker getting diagnosed with and having to go to a mental facility.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like we have depth at the position anyways... I think it'll be Knox, Sweeney, Smith, and Kroft on pup. Then, when Croft is healthy, they will either send Sweeney to PS or get rid of Smith- those two seem redundant- I prefer Sweeney as he's got more potential and is a nice wildcard.

I don't see Sweeney and Smith as redundant at all. Sweeney is the type that can do everything pretty good and nothing extraordinary. Smith blocks extraordinary and is lousy at everything else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I stand corrected- I thought Sweeney was a better blocker. Do we think Kroft is a lock? I don't see an odd man out and 5 TE's seem's heavy, especially if we keep DiMarco.
