Why in the fuging world would a young UDFA WR of ours, who's costing us nothing and showed out his rookie year, be disposable?

Because he cost nothing.

 

I like Philly....I just think the Ginn signing presents an interesting paradigm that's all.  We could play them at WR simultaneously, but we wouldn't have much run blocking out there.

No, Corey isn't disposable. He's slower than Ginn, but has far better hands and also greater potential. Ginn at #3 and Brown at #4 is actually ideal for us because that way we have two fast guys who are legitimate receiving threats.

can Philly be developed into our #2 receiver, with Ginn and Philly taking turns blowing the top off?

Ricky Proehl is no joke and I'm not doubting his teaching, especially after watching Philly's evolution from the beginning of the year to the present.

Sorry to keep calling him Philly, I know he prefers Corey, but he may be a few really crisp route progressions away from being a terror in the field..,and not just a one trick pony.

      Rookie minicamp

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.

      I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
