Kelly the Dog Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 After reading a few more reports, I think we're looking at Foster inactive, due to injury and not demotion. He went from full participant Thurs to limited yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 If he can make contested catches down the field he could find a place on the offense. The other things are a most. Teams, blocking, but adding a poor man Alshon Jeffery deep threat may help Allen stretch the field. Being able to underthrow it and having a guy go get it could be a big difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fansince88 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Dont be surprised if Zay is used less or not activated Sunday as a wakeup call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is a lot of conjecture. It's what I would do but McDermott and Beane have their quirks. ...so if you're an opposing other 31 GM, what in his skill set attracts you to give up any pick?.....you'll have to be objective and ignore his "TBD whipping boy status"......just curious bud...

Just don't see that skillset translating to the NFL. A tall WR who can out muscle CB's and has shown the ability to make that contested catch. He is not a speed burner, His job is to fight and attack the ball in traffic. He has shown he is pretty good at that, and it is the biggest missing attribute we have in our WR corps. He will be utilized much differently then Zay IMO Edited October 5, 2019 by ddaryl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you see much at all. But he was a second round pick, he had a great college career, he caught seven touchdowns last year, he can block. I wouldn't do it but some may.

He will be utilized much differently then Zay IMO We'll find out. My opinion is that anything Williams can do, one of the tight ends can do. I like that he's getting a shot; why not? It's not like the back end of the receiving unit has any standouts. Just don't have any real expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihilarian Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Good to hear as I was hoping we would see him at some point. Hopefully he can catch better than Mr Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 They've got dozens of small, quick receivers. They need a tall, physical guy. Duke looked great in preseason and I hope he's ready to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone (except for other CFL teams and fans) care? I wish Duke luck. While I was fairly unimpressed with him in preseason, regular season is a different animal. Hopefully he steps up. As to who is inactive in the event Duke plays I hope it isn't McKenzie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why were you unimpressed? He made probably the best 2 catches in the preseason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
