Keen an eye on Golden Tate in Philly and DeMaryius Thomas in Houston. I have a strong feeling it won't take a month for them to be productive.
People overestimate how long it takes for some positions to pick up a playbook. The routes are mostly the same, usually just different terminology, and these guys are pro's who have been picking up playbooks their whole lives. Shoot, Josh Gordon isn't considered the brightest bulb, and he picked up that complex Patriots playbook in less than a month.
Either way, this is pretty moot, because it doesn't look like we're picking anyone up.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
