I’d hold off on the Stallworth comparisons for now.

 

You're always so negative!   

[Virgil]

Stallsworth was an absolute burner deep threat.  I remember having him on my fantasy team year after year.  While I would love your comparison to be true, I just don't see it.

This is a joke, right?  John Stallworth played for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 70s.

Hahahaha, you're so right! I was thinking Donte Stallworth.  

 

Leave me alone, I'm still hungover from not sleeping!

For sure. Keon is a wasted spot and bad draft pick. Need to find a spot for Gabe on the roster. Is Beane ballsy enough to cut Keon for him? Probably not. 

I said before the game to put Gabe / Shavers opposite Palmer and it should stay that way.  However, i do think Keon as a redzone guy could pay big. Just a matter of who and how many do you suit up on gameday.

Agree with this. Bad Tampa pass D but my word I'd rather Shavers and Gabe rotating than Keon. He is a net negative to the offense. 

Yep. Additional by subtraction. The passing game looked like a different animal yesterday. IDC about Tampa’s bad pass defense. The Fins & Falcons both stifled Allen and they aren’t exactly world beaters.

I thought he looked a lot like Jerry Rice out there

[hondo in seattle]

Yikes.  I want to be wrong and I just got new glasses so maybe I am because what I see so far is a jag.  Not fast, not quick, average route runner, good size and physicality.  After not being drafted and toiling on the PS for 2 years, he made the 53 this year which suggests coachability and a good work ethic. 

 

Put all that together and I'm rooting for the kid, but I don't see him as a HOF Stallworth comp.  Though I wouldn't mind him taking more snaps away from Coleman.

why not Jerry RIce?

He has more of a Randy Moss build!

What's your opinion on this route here?

 

I feel like there's a legitimate deep threat here. 

 

I was reading unconfirmed stuff online that he's a 10.4 100 meter guy also ... 

 

 

 

 

[TheBrownBear]

Lol. Don't think he belongs on the WOF yet, but he's showed some nice things when given an opportunity.  I noticed he ran a slick little route against Miami last week too on the end zone interception.  It was just a bad ball by Allen.

[BigAl2526]

Shavers is not at all sudden or twitchy.  He was getting opportunities because the Buccaneers left a backup cornerback on an island with him.  If defenses make a point of trying to take him out of the game, I think he'll probably disappear.  Kudos to Shavers for taking advantage.  He showed he can be effective in making a defense a little more honest in their coverage schemes.
