Maybe I'm looking at this wrong but I saw Philly as the small quick Wrs .. Who gets Yac and makes short passes big gains... 

He can run deep routes but also gets smoke screens and slant routes as well.. And maybe this is a plan not to show anything in the preseason and only run vanilla routes and we will see these plays in the regular season...

So I'm not giving up on Philly in that aspect ....

 

My problem with Philly is.. He needs to either be a better hands catcher.. So he snatching the ball out the air and ready to run after  catches.. Or countine you being a body catcher and be prepare to take hits going across the middle... I don't see the 2nd thing because he is always looking for a place to fall when he knows he is about to take a hit...  So he needs to improve his hands so he can reach his full potential.. He gets to much separation to always go to the ground after making a body catch...

He's just not that good.  He surprised last year simply by making the team and making a contribution, but our WR corps was trash overall and he had 21 catches for less than 300 yards.  Not sure why everyone wanted to rush to crown his ass after that.  Anytime you get anything out of a UDFA, you have to count yourself as fortunate, but it seemed like everyone wanted to pencil him in as our starting slot WR for the next decade.  Easy now...

Im not %100  sold on Brown either. PPersonally I'd like to see Boykin get some reps with the starters Fri.

I have no idea who I want to see getting the reps.  We just really, really need Funchess to get healthy ASAP and be able to be a legit threat because our WR corps is terrifying.

You and me both. I believe Boykin is a damn good underrated receiver. If anybody watched the Packers in 2013 when Cobb and Rodgers was hurt, he came in and put up some pretty good numbers for the season. He attacks the ball in the air better than Philly and is a bigger frame. I hope he gets reps with the ones Friday.

I think he has earned It.

Jarrett Boykin is better than Philly Brown. I wouldn't cut him just yet. I would put him on the practice squad.

 

Philly = Upgrade over Reggie Wayne at this point. He won't make it past waivers. If NE got him they would turn him into next Wes Welker IMO

 

I don't get why we are talking about PSing him instead of Spicoli Bersin

      Qbs aren't defined by physical abilities. Brady, Brees, Manning, Montana, Warner,.....doesn't seem to correlate.

      Corbett might not be gone

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
