Philly Brown


WOW!!

Recommended Posts

Maybe I'm looking at this wrong but I saw Philly as the small quick Wrs .. Who gets Yac and makes short passes big gains... 

He can run deep routes but also gets smoke screens and slant routes as well.. And maybe this is a plan not to show anything in the preseason and only run vanilla routes and we will see these plays in the regular season...

So I'm not giving up on Philly in that aspect ....

 

My problem with Philly is.. He needs to either be a better hands catcher.. So he snatching the ball out the air and ready to run after  catches.. Or countine you being a body catcher and be prepare to take hits going across the middle... I don't see the 2nd thing because he is always looking for a place to fall when he knows he is about to take a hit...  So he needs to improve his hands so he can reach his full potential.. He gets to much separation to always go to the ground after making a body catch...

He's just not that good.  He surprised last year simply by making the team and making a contribution, but our WR corps was trash overall and he had 21 catches for less than 300 yards.  Not sure why everyone wanted to rush to crown his ass after that.  Anytime you get anything out of a UDFA, you have to count yourself as fortunate, but it seemed like everyone wanted to pencil him in as our starting slot WR for the next decade.  Easy now...

Im not %100  sold on Brown either. PPersonally I'd like to see Boykin get some reps with the starters Fri.

I have no idea who I want to see getting the reps.  We just really, really need Funchess to get healthy ASAP and be able to be a legit threat because our WR corps is terrifying.

You and me both. I believe Boykin is a damn good underrated receiver. If anybody watched the Packers in 2013 when Cobb and Rodgers was hurt, he came in and put up some pretty good numbers for the season. He attacks the ball in the air better than Philly and is a bigger frame. I hope he gets reps with the ones Friday.

I think he has earned It.

Jarrett Boykin is better than Philly Brown. I wouldn't cut him just yet. I would put him on the practice squad.

 

Philly = Upgrade over Reggie Wayne at this point. He won't make it past waivers. If NE got him they would turn him into next Wes Welker IMO

 

I don't get why we are talking about PSing him instead of Spicoli Bersin

    • Why would we not be contenders? As long as Bryce plays like he did when he came back, we absolutely can be contenders...that is...   if the defense plays better... which is why adding someone like Ramsey when we have a QB on a rookie deal and can afford it makes sense IMO. No one thought of the Commanders being contenders last year or the Texans the year before and so on and so forth. Top-end QB play, especially for a guy on a rookie deal, changes everything in terms of timelines. Regardless of what this board thinks, I hope the front office is willing to he aggressive in thks window we currently have with a rookie QB deal  
    • Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.
    • He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
