  • 6'4" 210, now we are getting somewhere, not really familiar with him looks like he drops some balls, how is the speed?

    Andre Holmes:

    6'4

    4.53 40

    35 vert

    130 broad jump

    11 bench reps

    Josh Gordon

    6'3

    4.52 40

    36" vert

    121 broad jump

    13 bench reps

  • Just saw some highlights on YouTube of this guy.
    He is definitely a vertical threat and could be a good fill in for the role JG plays. Made some pretty nice circus catches.

    I think he's worthy of playing in the orange and brown

    Minnesota Vikings

    Dallas Cowboys

    The Dallas Cowboys signed him to their practice squad on September 5, 2011 and promoted him to the active roster on December 9, but did not play in the last 4 games of the season. Holmes was waived by the Cowboys on November 24, 2012.[8] On November 27, the Cowboys re-signed Holmes to their practice squad, as a replacement to Danny Coale, but wasn't re-signed at the end of the season.[9]

  • Sounds like he's 1 strike away from a year off

    well, he did say that Holmes is very comparable to Gordon....

    Looks like him physically, at least. Id say he DOES look like an interesting prospect, just not sure he's any better of a bet than any rookie we would pick in the draft....while he will cost more and, apparently, has strikes against him....

    If he was on the waiver wire, I might take a swing and pick him up.....but to sign him to a 1.5m contract?......eh, Id pass

  • At least suspension was for a PED.

  • Does the Hartline deal stop this Deal??? Farmer loves the Hawkins deal.. Possible would lead to Drafting WR in Later Rounds?? Miles Out ??

  • did somebody say one strike away from a year suspension? wow that's only one less than Josh.
