    I think a guy like this can help right away, unlike Skippy's pipe dream, Charlton Mitchell. This is the first WR we brought in this year that I can get semi-excited about.

    I am still frustrated he didn't get playing time last week.

    Williams is intriguing. 6'2" with a career APC of 16.0. They call him Spider man because of his freakish ability and sticky hands. With four years experience, this is the kind of guy that break right into the rotation and start makig plays for us.

    If they guy isn't in a wheelchair, he's probably an upgrade over what we have now. It's becoming more and more apparent that Robiski just doesn't have enough speed to consistently get open in the NFL.

    When your depth chart reads MoMass-Cribbs, Stuckey you have problems.

    Lol i would say you are right on both counts! Im thinking we will keep seeing musical WRs and maybe RBs as well throughout the season and continuing on next year and beyond in search of that elusive unknown leftover talent that can mesh with our system/gameplan, heckert and mangini appear to be working very closely together to find what the team needs, as for the round of the player/experience of the player i believe we are looking to add stability and impact and if the new guy dont/wont/cant work in our system we waive them when something else pops up on the radar and we try again, both heckert and mangini are being very aggressive and determined as a team to throw a full functioning unit together and ya cant help but to like the effort!

  • I am begining to like Stuckey a little more

    He is quick in an open field. He can usually wiggle through the first tackle. He will break a big one soon.

    That made me laugh out loud. Sad but true. How is it this team won two games?

    I been saying that since we wasted a 2nd round pick on the bum. That pick reeked of legacy pick just cuz he was from Ohio St. and Daddy coached here.

  • Well we only lost the teams washing machine when we signed Figurs, it was time for a new one anyways.

  • Figures was brought in to return Kicks if Cribbs couldn't go. Cribbs is fine so they released him

    Anybody know Williams' 40 time

    No but if im correct this is a video of him in college

  • Norwood has fantastic hands, but is a bit undersized and no speed demon himself.

    Don't be hating on Carlton Mitchell Zippy, the kid is tall and reported to be the quickiest on the team. Remember he came out after his Junior year from a smaller college. He has some learning to do and I would take him over the inflated big school recruits of Robiskie or Nomass anyday and we haven't even seen him play yet.

    Sometimes legacy picks can be a good thing- you wouldn't happen to want Clay Matthews Jr on the Browns, or would you?

    What kind of coverage was that? I suspect that saftey had cement in his shoes, or Williams is lightning fast..

    Regarding Mitchell, if he was another Marquis Colston we'd have seen him active by now. Maybe he has Ben Gay syndrome? Like not too bright?

    BTW, Oregon has about six flavors of hideous jerseys, courtesy of the Big Enchillada at Nike- who graduated from there, and pays for all the hideousness.

    Just like we saw the Patriots bring in Tom Brady to replace Bledsole, oh wait... that's not correct. Brady was kept on the bench until Bledsole was too injured to play.

    You gotta let the kid get on the field and start playing before you rule him out. Not saying he's going to be Colston, but you never know how a player is going to pan out until they get some game time. Sometimes a player just doesn't get a chance due to his position on the depth chart.

    I will admit, i'm a USF homer and always was a fan of Mitchell. Hopefully i'm not using the blinders, but I just want us to give him a chance to succeed.

    Let's not start up the excuse factory on this guy. He played in 37 games, 3 full seasons, at South Florida. Plus a redshirt year. In case you weren't aware, South Florida is in the Big East, a BCS conference. The Bulls went to four bowl games in a row and were ranked as high as #2 in the country while Carlton was there.

    I want to see him make it as bad as anybody, but I feel a lot better with Demetrius Williams and his four years of NFL experience out there helping Colt rather than this sixth round draft pick that made goo goo eyes at you at training camp.

    Zombo

    All I want to say is don't give up on this guy. Look at the season Lance Moore is having with the Saints. We had a chance to sign him as an undrafted free agent a few years ago, but he said he wasn't good enough during try outs and we dropped him, then after have 3 years of work in the NFL he broke out with the saint 1-2 years ago and now he is a solid receiver.

  • If I'm not mistaken, Mitchell was a project pick...

    At draft time it was stated that he had exceptional speed but had some issues catching the ball...

    We were going to coach him up and if that failed all we have invested is a 6th round pick....

    After the bye we will probably see more of him to stretch the field---that is, if he accepted the coaching up...

    Peace

    great swag, horrible game to back it up.

    His one end around last week, complete with a self tackle, was all it took to get cut. lol
