Should we pump the breaks on the Byrd enthusiasm just a bit?

[csx]

I was just starting to get excited. So the answer is yes.

Watched him drop too many passes in college to let such a small sample size now completely change my cautious outlook on him at the present.

Everyone who hopped on Byrd's cock after Wednesday need to slow their role the ones who have been believers from day 1 can continue on.

You never know. Byrd could just be a late bloomer, but I would feel a lot better if he had consistent and better production in college.

Byrd was a track guy playing football in college.

Now he's had 2 years of learning how to run routes, adding some muscle and fine tuning a lot of things. He was your typically run straight WR in college so he was extremely raw however extremely athletic. 

His 3 cone time combined with his 40 tells you he has the quicks and speed just a matter of putting it all together which he slowly is.

Patience is a virtue and I believe it will work in Byrd's case.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

There was a guy a year or so ago that showed out in the Superbowl in his coming out party and we traded him to NE for trinkets.  I think one preseason game is not enough to prove he has "arrived".  Prior to that he was in a tight fight with Brensin (some say he's only on the team cause he cut JR's lawn) Bersin. 

I want him to be good and want him to be a strong contributor but I think we need to let the rest of the preseason unfold.

"Ron Rivera says aspects of Damiere Byrd's game remind him of Steve Smith, specifically his quickness."

I will say this, Like Smith, Byrd is a very smooth moving athlete

The D's have it.

Don't you mean dainty like a duck?

Not in this case, let him have this hype.

He came from a local school, ultra raw being a career #3, and weight was around 150 to start. He put in work and this could easily be the best time in his life. His 15 minutes could be starting or just ending now. I just hope he doesn't turn into bersin 2.14.

The answer is a resounding
