Byrd's role?

Shepard has really disappointed, I had high hopes for him. Honestly after watching last game Bersin should get more snaps then Clay. I like Clay as a returner and occasional deep threat, but he isn't even close to a starter. Bring on the turds.  

He's amazing on special teams though. He's a great gunner, notice that he's always right next to the punt returner when he catches it. The guy may not be Cotchery as a WR but he's been very valuable for us.

Yeah I agree. I just don’t think he should be on the field with the offense as much.

Very true, unfortunately they paid him to be more than a special teams ace.  Hopefully something starts clicking at the WR spot for him.

Folks, do not give up on Byrd.  He has been on the PS and has not seen many reps with the 1s.  It takes a WR 2 years of playing to get it...He is basically a second year player coming off injury.  Byrd has talent and has not had the chance to do much in this new system--it should benefit him.

Who knows?  I just hope that Byrd steps up.  I think that he can.  Let him and Clay compete. 

As for Shep, he is what I told all the m-f-ers he is.  

We gotta roll with what we have unless we get a relic off the couch.  Gotta hope for the best.

He can't do any worse than zero catches for zero yards which was last week's stat line for every WR we have not named Devin Funchess.

Clay gets a pass on that though. Big reverse and punt return TD.

Can anyone guess what position our first rounder is in next year's draft?  I am going with long snapper, but that is just me.

Considering how no WRs caught a pass last week minus Funchess, Byrd will be the number 2.  I like Clay but needs to work on his hands. Shepard had his shot and blew it. I think Bersin will be in the game on short down and distance. 

Bersin had a nice out route last week and Cam threw it too late. I wish Cam would anticipate the break and make the throw.

I wonder who we cut to bring him back on.

Clay is making 370 grand. It's not like they gave him Russell Shepard money. He's fine

Was talking about Shepherd.
