A Funchess Reminder

YUP, counting the 2 UDFAs we'll be signing, we have  11 WRs on the roster:

Benjamin, Kelvin

Bersin, Brenton

Brown, Philly

Byrd, Damiere

Funchess, Devin

Ginn, Jr., Ted

Hamilton, Cobi

Hill, Stephen

Norwood, Kevin Garrett, Keyarris Stoshak, Jenson

Should be a fun camp with those guys.

KB, Funch, Ginn, Philly appear to be safe. That likely leaves two spots for Bersin, Byrd, Hill, Norwood and Garrett to battle for. I think Garrett gets one of those spots. The last one is a complete toss up.

[Jeremy Igo]

I'm not sure Philly is safe.

So basically what you're saying is that our WR corps will once again be rated the worst in the League... LOL

[Castavar]

Looked like Funchess was the Vet in the superbowl while Crotchery was the rookie tbh

[Kevin Greene]

And we will see CBs grow the same way this season.

[CPF4LIFE]

Yep, funch bout to take off

[Bartin]

Didn't Funchess play 4 years in high school and 3 years in college? Where does the limited football experience thing come from?

I agree

I think we keep Hill as replacement to Ginn. Hill is 6 years younger than Ginn, and has the speed to be a deep threat but he has the same drop issue as Ginn had his whole career

There is no way Bersin should have a spot..

We need Garrett to teach Ginn, Hill and any others with drop problems his tennis ball catching routine that seems to have helped him significantly decrease drops!

Last year we had Peanut teach our DBs the Peanut Punch.

This year we need our WRs to learn the Garrett grab.

Here's what I'm referring to re: Garrett and catching tennis balls:

Quote

ProFootballFocus ranked him 77th in their recently released top-100, and noted Garrett dropped just three of the 99 catchable passes thrown his way in 2015.  How did he catch 96 passes, with only three drops? In the summer before 2015, Garrett would catch 300 tennis balls a day, shot 40 miles per hour out of the machine, from about seven yards away.

Had not seen this before. You have to love his dedication to do something like this. That work ethic plus being pissed off he wasnt drafted.....watch out.

Ginn might have more success if he catches cpl more of those deep balls.
