This thread kind of depresses me because we're gong to lose a receiver or two that I would like to keep.
Then again, I'm happy we actually have real NFL caliber competition at a position.
If the talk about Thompson is true, then Whaley might end up trading one of them for depth we need elsewhere (see TE, middle LB) or maybe a low round draft pick.
Harvin is absolutely playing for us this year.
I'm struggling between Hogan and Thompson for the sixth spot. Thompson has been better in TC and preseason, but our WR coach loves Hogan.
If Hogan's healthy he's a far more proven player than Thompson yet with injury concerns in the top 3 I think you keep the healthy guy.
-
Watkins
Woods
Thompson
Harvin
Thigpen
Easley
PS: Davis

Here's to hoping EJ ends up with numbers somewhat like this;
1st Drive - 4/4, 45 yards passing, 0 rushing yards, Carpenter FG
2nd Drive - 5/6, 55 yards passsing, 8 rushing yards, 23 yard TD pass to Thompson
3rd Drive - 5/7, 50 yards passing, 12 rushing yards, 12 yard TD run by EJ
As he exits, he has a final line of 14/17, 150 yards passing, 20 rushing yards, 2 TDs (1 rushing)
Would this win him the job?
It depends what do Tyrod and Cassel do?
-
One of the bigger mistakes of this franchises was taking Spiller instead of Dez Bryant. As had we taken Dez am pretty sure we end up keeping Lynch.
-
Tyrod will start then will go down injured week 5-8 EJ will take over as he can run a similar style offense. I don't think Tyrod can make a whole season how many season did Vick play 16 games ?
One.
-
We should trade for Tarvaris Jackson again
He's coming off an injury. Damn shame we cut him days before Kolb got hurt as we hadn't things might be different in all that is the development of EJ Manuel.
-
Over: Tyrod Taylor
Under: Corbin Bryant
-
Same here. They need some more veteran backup (or even starter) help.
Anybody ever hear what happened to Gosder Cherilus?
He signed with the Bucs and expected to start at RT after their previous starter got hurt, http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcsouth/post/_/id/61446/bucs-handing-rt-job-to-gosder-cherilus

There are some TE needy teams like the Redskins who could pick him up off waivers before we can sign him to the PS. It sucks because he might just be a guy who needs time to adjust to the NFL. But, thems the breaks.
The Redskins just flipped a 5th Round pick for a TE from San Fran. Am sure they'll explore a few guys in roster cuts but have to believe there will be better options than a 6th Round rookie that interest them.

Opt out clause.
We now call that "Marroning it"
-
Has Harvin ever returned punts? I know he returns KO. Not saying he shouldn't, just wondering.
Good observation, he's yet to return a punt according to http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/12569/percy-harvin
-
The worst part about Dalton is that the Bengals have to decide between paying him big bucks, or letting him go and starting all over.
It's a big bite to swallow, but letting him go is probably what is best for the franchise. Maybe not right away, but definitely 3-5 years down the line.
They'll probably keep him though since they dont want to make themselves look foolish, even though they ultimately will. They'll go off of the old Sunk Cost fallacy.
edit: I forgot they already re-signed him to a 6 year deal with pretty big money. Not 1st tier, but big enough that you can't just cut him or move on. Yikes!
He lucked out that they drafted AJ Green the same year. The kid has built a career on just chucking it to within 30ft of where ever AJ is supposed to be.
Well Tyrod's got the chucking down, maybe once Watkins and him are on the field together we'll see some results.
-
Sure. As long as he isn't overpaid, he could help this team. I still would like them to take a run at Mathis. Who knows, maybe they have. But if he is going to play this year, it isn't likely to be for big money.
This teams' OL depth scares the crap out of me.
I posted the same thoughts after the 1st preseason game. I'm sure Whaley will be busy during first cuts to find someone as think we have seven saft bets in Glenn, Incognito, Wood, Miller, Henderson, Urbik & Kujo but after that we got nothing.
-
Then we can trade Mario Williams and Marcell Dareus for Andrew Luck.
No way as they'd blurb to the Colts what we're game planning against them in Week 1. Instead let's trade Woods, Mario, Dareus and Hughes for Rodgers and their 1st Round pick [/sarcasm]
-
yeah, we should trade him while we can get something for him
Right since we have nothing to play for this year
-
I'll need to re-watch it because I admit I wasn't as focused on this season as the 1st. Episodes 5 & 6 were my most enjoyable.
-
I'm okay with women with ink on their arms and bank but for some reason get bothered with the legs. I can't explain it except for that I've always been most attracted to a woman's legs.
-
Camp body and wtf was Jeremy Towns?
-
Just Googled,"Tyrod Taylor injury history". Didn't really need to - watched him play the same style at VT - umm, nothing came up aside from a concussion check once with the Ravens - negative.
Dudes a tough guy and a winner. Give it a rest.
and what exactly has he won?
-
FJ, O'leary, Duke, Easley, and Gragg, will be gone with Hogan to IR
Carrington makes it but moves to DE
I don't know who will be the third TE/H-back
4th, 5th and/or 6th WR is anyone's guess now...
The fourth safety is not on the roster now.
I'm shocked that we didn't pick up D'wan Landry as to me he an ideal Jet castoff that van fill a void.
-
2016. So this year and next.
and being a former 1st Round pick the Bills also can pick up an option year in 2017.
-
Don't have his stats in front of me but I do know of the 4 drives he has led into the red zone we have had 2 TDs. I wouldn't say he struggling unless he puts up another 0-2+ night.
He's 0-3 passing inside the twenty, Feel free to review his stuff at http://www.nfl.com/player/tyrodtaylor/2495240/profileThe two red zone TDs he led us on were because of Bryce Brown's stong run inside the twenty and Tyrod's run and "horse collar" penalty he drew against Carolina. Again I want to see Tyrod do it with his arm, he impressed me yesterday as going in I was 75/25 Cassel/Tyrod and now it's 50/50. I sound like being overly critical and maybe I am but feel have to be as it's easy to miss things when you watch with your heart and not your head.
-
Dareus!!
Dareus is under contract for this season already, if we sign him it's an extension that starts next year when Cassel isn't under contract.

I don't understand why so many people love this guy so much. Everyone around here hates Marrone, yet they love the player that symbolizes his regime more than anyone else. This guy would have never seen the field with another coach. Maybe I'll just never recover from being upset by how many touches he got on plays such as screens last year. We traded for Sammy who is obviously far more gifted, and all the screens went to Hogan. He just doesn't have the talent you need in this league. I don't care how good he is at lacrosse. Made a nice catch in the Vikings game, but also drops a ton of passes in games. Fans are blinded by their desire to root for the underdog small college underdog guy that reminds them of their athletic pasts, and ignore how he actually plays in the game. Many have mentioned they fear him playing on the Pats. Sure, he'd make an impact with the Pats. Tom Brady would be throwing him the ball. I'd make an impact too.
People can identify with him because he was featured on Hard Knocks, looks like a guy who developed himself into a no one to a decent option last year. Yet it doesn't mean he isn't replaceable. He's struggled this preseason and have little problem replacing him as think we've seen the most we can ever expect from him which is to be a #3 WR in the NFL.

Nope Cassel, he's better than AVP was when he was 3rd string to Flutie/RJ. Toss in he gives insurance just in case the regular season doesn't go as well as this preseason has. Yet most of all I don't want him ending up in New England if Brady can't go in the first 4 games because of the suspension.
