At least he's doing something for the team and is 7th in the league in punt return average. 

People rightly called out how bad our WR room was after our 3 at the beginning of the season and have been proved right. This is why you don't have people who are on the team for blocking, like Mike Thomas, as your #4 WR.

I totally agree!  Thomas should have been cut a couple of years ago IMO.

He must have some incriminating pictures on somebody to keep sticking on the roster. 


Although sadly believe he is the best of the 3 back ups.

I don't think you're wrong, buts it's gross that it's even close to being true, if its not right. The dude has 2 receptions on 9 targets this year and a career catch percentage under 50%.

I think we should've kept Lassiter and Pryor on the 53 this year.

I just don't think it's very wise long term.

They need to prepare for the worst, instead of hoping for the best scenario.

Oh well.  Someday fools will learn.

none of those guys listed in the tryouts were long term solutions

Thought Pryor's 4.37 forty time coupled with he looked to have very good hands in pre-season would have been something the coaches could have worked with personally. 

yet I'm no coach

I didn't mean the guys listed in the workout.

More so guys like the other FAs listed out there.

Such as a Marvin Jones, Terrace Marshall, Elijah Moore.

Chase very well could be put out for the whole season at any point.

Tee has issues he's working through.

Hurst as well.

If one of those guys go down there is a HUGE drop off in talent at key positions.

Man you really didn't read all of the posts in this thread.

Instead of repeating what I meant I just reposted my follow up.

Most of those guys weren't answers either as trade acquisitions not FAs.

I still would've been intrigued by the Terrace Marshall one though.

I agree and Lassiter was just as quick as Pryor.
