True Statement....But I am sure he will get picked up somewhere...3 things he showed this year regardless of what some may think. He showed he gets open, runs great not good great routes, and guess what outside of pre-season he catches the ball. I think I saw one person on here say that after Philly got hurt the offense struggled. Was that because he was out there putting in work on Talib even after he almost got is neck torn off? Just sayin......

But that's becoming a problem. ..

3x times now Philly has gotten hurt with nobody hitting him making a difficult catch.. It's not helping us if Philly is working somebody but he gets hurt by hitting the ground hard and done for the game..

I am sure that more than 1 WR will be brought in, either through the draft or FA. There will already be competition, as we have 2 WR coming back from injury, and only lost 1.

I'm sure of that my point was bringing in a WR more like Philly then the basketball team  (wr corp) We have already..

If Philly doesn't make the team this year that means we got better. He's a good receiver and whoever replaces him has to be better. 

And if he doesn't make the team I hope he is beat out by a guy more in his type that can do the shifty short pass to big play thing and not another giant ..

So should go hard after the ball like in the Super Bowl or not go after it like he sometimes get's dogged out for. I think he gets a bad rap that's all no matter what he does it is blown up except for when he does something wrong then it's magnified.  Funny thing also is he was leading all recievers on both teams before he went up between those two fantastic defenders and caught that ball.

I'm with you but DG isn't.  For some reason he feels like he has to get his franchise quarterback 6'2"  and taller receivers.  Stephen Hill in the 4th spot or the guy  picked up from the Seahawks would be my prediction.

Or maybe don't be so fragile or get somebody who can do his job and not be so fragile..

It's your job if you want to be a starting quality WR to make a difficult catch every now and then.. 

He can also help him self by being more of a hand catcher then a body catcher.. 

But it isn't helping us if we can't keep taking advantage of a mismatch when the WR is hurt..

Or as long as he just catches it would be my guess....we can go on and on but the truth is he is just not respected as a player here by some.

He will be apart of our offense next year.  The guy has come a long way from being a UDFA to a solid contributor on a SB talented team.  The combinations that Shula will have at his disposal this season is going to be awesome. 

Brown is an excellent route runner.  And for those of you that are worried about his body catching. Get over it.  Not ever single player is going to be mechanically correct ever single play.  As long as he keeps catching the ball I could give a fug if he caught it between the gaps in his face mask, as long as he catches it.

Well that's you and your standard for a WR.. 

He won't reach his full potential until he can bulk up and consistently catch with his hands.. 

Plain and simple

But that didn't help us when he missed the 2nd half of the Superbowl with a injury because he just caught the ball...

How the fug do you know what my standard is AH.

Brown is a good player and obviously much better than you think he is.  They are grooming him and I NEVER implied he has reached his ceiling.  In any sport if you aren't improving you are getting worse.

Many players have had successful careers and ever a few HOFer that weren't your perfect technique players.  Bottom line if he is getting open and catching the ball.  I don't think they have a stat that separates body catches from hand catches.

But then again you "think" you know it all.

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

    • 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.
