Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 I was pretty high on N'Keal Harry during the draft, but if you can't get off jams at the LOS and you can't get separation, you will not be a successful NFL wide receiver, regardless of how good you are at jump balls. Hopefully a change of scenery will help his development. 1
DrDawkinstein Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 you LOVE to see it! Good for N'Keal. Do whatever you gotta do to cause more turmoil over there. 4

But I do love the way this has shaken out for the Pats. 1
Rocky Landing Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 "Straight-Line" Harry thinks he can get a better opportunity somewhere else-- and he may be right. But, there aren't too many WR corps currently worse than the Pats*, where Harry projects... third, or fourth down the depth chart? Maybe he could do better in Detroit with a reincarnation of Jared Goff throwing long bombs that Harry won't have to cut too sharply? Hard to be a top receiver on any team if you have neither high-end speed, or an ability to cut to get separation.
dorquemada Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 Yeah if Brady couldn't find a way to use him, then good luck wherever he ends up 2 1

Harry is just upset because his rookie QB looks like a middle aged congressman smoking a cigar in a tweed jacket Are you sure it really wasn't Kraft running a football fantasy camp for members of Congress? Making friends, in case things get out of hand? 🤔 * 😁
Virgil Posted July 6, 2021 Author Posted July 6, 2021 20 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: I had the impression Harry was targetted infrequently because he was struggling to get open It doesn't help that he only caught 50% and 57.9% of his targets, either. This sort of reminds me of Sammy Watkins in B'lo demanding more targets. In hindsight, Sammy Watkins acknowledges that he himself was the cause of many of his struggles here - that he wasn't in the playbook, wasn't working hard in practice, wasn't following the rehab programs the doctors and trainers laid out for him. You're bringing logic and reason to the conversation. I just want to push a magic button so that the Pats can go ***** themselves 2 1 4

Rocky Landing Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 Trolling text I just sent to a friend who is a Pats* fan: The Pats* aren't going to miss N'Keal "Straight-Line" Harry-- Cam can't throw in a straight line anyway. Although, Mac & Cheese's long arcs that lose velocity, and fall out of the sky would've been perfect for him. 1
Patrick Duffy Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 Seems he knows he will not be getting much of any opportunities once again with Cam (as of now) at QB. Likely doesn't feel too confident Jones would be too much better LOL. Seriously though, I don't know...but that actually might have a little something to do with it. Either way, I hope they crumble for a long time and I will enjoy every minute of it if so.
BillsShredder83 Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 20 minutes ago, RoyBatty is alive said: He is requesting a trade because it is doubtful if he makes their 53 man roster this year, nothing to read into it about their QB situation. Logic doesnt check out. Why would he want a trade when he can hand pick where he goes post cut? 1

YoloinOhio Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 Add another WR bust draft pick to the list for that team 2
