David Newton thinks Torrey trade really worked out

Torrey's not a deep threat but elsewhere I honestly have to say he's been fine and good. He's been a nice route runner in the intermediate range honestly. 

Newton does list some weird reasons but otherwise I think Torrey has been fine. Just don't need to keep pretending he's a deep threat anymore though and start getting Samuel wet.

He's been open deep this year, Cam hasn't really looked his way.

If you're talking about some of the ones where he wasn't the primary read or where he was schemed open over the middle (actually misrepresented that as Wright in another thread), I don't think those are as consistent as I'd like imo.

He's fine if we use him as our intermediate. I'm more open with that. I just want to see Samuel getting the deep targets instead of trying to force some to Smith.

That's more him being open because of bad coverage/good play call against a specific defense rather than him actually beating someone deep. Bersin would have been open deep on those plays.

    • No one is necessarily saying they want him to be third in receptions, but that it could happen and that it wouldn't be some automatic negative. At this point we have other younger, less experienced players who could of course end up producing more than Renfrow, but depending on game dynamics and coaching philosophy regarding experience and simple execution at/on the job, there is a scenario where Renfrow gets more play than most of the guys. That's all I'm saying.  Furthermore, run blocking is an understated part of the job and Renfrow isn't bad at that, but younger guys (especially rookies) need to master that before they become a regular staple in the flow of the game. In my opinion, some Huddlers are just discounting Renfrow a little too much while glorifying younger guys who still have a lot to learn. I've seen this story before. It's not about "infatuation" from the coaches' parts, and more about getting the receivers on the field who can do their job. And speaking of "infatuation," I'm not inclined to fall in love with the next best thing either. I've seen these players come and go on a consistent basis. I told people that Philly was JAG, and that's exactly how his short career played out. My advice would be to at least see players in a game before you crown them as roster material.
    • I agree with those that say Steve Smith won't make it.  No rings and probably pissed to many people off.  Neither will Cam.  His dominant period was to short.  Luke might, but its not a given.  
    • This defense needs someone other than Derrick Brown to bring some mean energy I like it. Of course, I'd rather him save it for the regular season or maybe joint practices but I'll take it.
