The catches from the practice film with the Texans look more like he did his senior year in college. He was very good at catching with his hands and high pointing the ball. I hope that last year he may have just been adjusting and been in his head a little bit.

Echoes what I've heard about him from a couple of his college teammates that I know. They all say the same thing. Humble and works as hard as anyone on the team. I do hope it all comes together for him.

Dude is so talented, but not very cerebral and cannot stay healthy

F'em. People are already starting to watch less the generation coming up has less interest than my generation and the rest of us don't want all the politics that ESPN likes to throw into our sports programming. I'll just watch the games broadcast on the major networks and watch less football I guess. The only reason I have ESPN now is for College football. I don't ever watch it otherwise to much BS on there for me.

I thought this thread was going to be about drinking heavily to forget what we just saw on the field.

I quit following Person a long time ago when he started thinking I gave a poo about his political opinions. I also like how he projects that Tepper may have had something to do with the removal of the post without any facts. He got his feelings hurt by Tepper early on and cannot give an unbiased assessment any longer. Typical little "in touch with his feelings" writer who thinks their opinions are much more important than they are and that any of us care how they feel.

Anyone that watched XL in college knows he had good hands and would regularly go up and come down with 50/50 balls. He got thrown in as a rookie and struggled along with dealing with a wrist injury. I am hopeful the injury was part of the problem and he can use his size, strength and speed to become a solid part of our rotation.

Clowney was absolutely a beast prior to having microfracture surgery and then he was never the same player he once was. It has happened to many athletes, they just never get back to their level.

I set let Bryce be Bryce. He does not need to carry on any Cam traditions, let him make his own and let his personality be what it is. I could give a rip about how he acts on the field or in the press conference. His confidence in the second half of the year has been great to watch as you could see it grow from game to game.

Giving up on a player after their first year is the kind of craziness you expect from fanatics. Plenty said Derek Brown was a bust after 3-4 games. Let's give him a chance. I was disappointed with the drops for sure, but not ready to write him off. He was sure handed in college and was great at going up and high pointing the ball. I will reserve judgement until after next season.

Read the boards and it should be pretty evident. If not I can't really help you.

Dude never dropped balls in college. He was aggressive and high pointed balls all the time. I think either something is still wrong with his wrist or he just needs to get his confidence. I don't think he was/is as raw as some people think. He is a rookie at the end of the day. Just like many rookies on this team that many here want to judge after a couple of games. I remember when many on this board were saying Derek Brown was a bust after a few games. I thought XL should have caught that pass yesterday and hopefully whatever is going on can be corrected.

Sometimes I feel like there are fans of other teams that post on here to make our fanbase look really stupid, but then I realize some of our fans just are. The kneejerk reactions about draft picks and then never admitting they are wrong when things work out.

Rivera did him in. We would be up late when the game was in hand and Rivera would run him over and over again. I remember telling my wife that he was going to end up injured and wondering what the hell was Rivera doing. Nobody's body can take that much of a beating and last. I can see him move into coaching one day. Very high football IQ.

When his footwork is on, he is money. Problem is like many when he is under pressure or duress he regresses back to his athleticism and the footwork goes to garbage. He also has a hard time with anything beyond his second read most of the time.
