Erickson

[Shake n Blake]

I like what I've seen from him as a return guy, so I guess I wouldn't mind him getting a few snaps here and there as a WR. What can it hurt? I never have high hopes for these late round/undrafted WRs, but Erickson seems special to me. Kinda like a white Tom Waddle.

He's been starting to show that explosiveness on returns and he has made a play or 2 in the passing game. With Gio out and Green hurt, I'd like to see more of him and Boyd. I would like to see them put Core in there, but we know the coaches wont do that. At this point I'm putting in my younger players and letting them learn and gain experience.

As he has shown on his returns, the kid has speed, and his hands are pretty good. I say put him in and see if he can do what none of the other recievers could do Sunday, and that is get separation from the coverage.

He's another Steve Largent type of player.

We've got Core and Boyd to develop.

Erickson has just now gotten his crap together enough to be a decent returner. Let's stick with that for now.
