2015 Philly Brown is our 2012 Doug Balwdin

Both Brown and Baldwin are mid sized receivers who don't particularly excel at anything, but are decent at everything. 

Both undrafted free agents as rookies. Both come from legit college football programs. Both had unspectacular 40 times in the combine (thus being undrafted)

Similar stats in their first years (aside from Philly not getting as many snaps)

I feel like Philly should really take a look at Baldwin's game as a model for his career. In a couple of years he has all the ability in the world to get near 800-900 receiving yards.

So now that ive read what their stats are, this is a really good idea to me. I didnt realize Baldwin was Phillys size. I dont know why but Philly still looks so skinny to me. 

I really hope we can see more Philly in the slot. I feel like he played well out of there when given the chance.

I love Baldwin's game. Baldwin is a hands catcher who is able to absorb hits and make people miss. Baldwin has the strength to fight off defenders and out runs guys with the ball in his hands. Philly is a straight line speed kinda guy, who doesn't trust his hands (and never will). Philly isn't a threat to go anywhere after catch and doesn't have the ability to make people miss. 

I'd love to go and get us a Baldwin type receiver in this years draft though! A guy like Sterling Shepard would be a nice pick up and I'd compare him to Baldwin. I just want to see us surround Cam with some guys that have the ability to make people miss, Braxton Miller has that ability as well.

Philly's catching passes from Cam. baldwin's catching passes from Gary Coleman. It's the same physics that makes mediocre girls look hot when they're hanging out with their one fat friend.

    • Yeah I'm still not sure about Canales' play calling but I'll give him another season. Still can't quite figure out why you think Young won't work out. His numbers with Theilen are as good as any QB Theien's ever had - including the three games he has started with Rogers this year. Cokers' numbers are as good as Theilens and he is an UDFA and TMac is in the run for ORTY with Young as his QB. Young's throwing more accurately now (from 21.5% in 23 to 16.5% this year) and he has shown he can make the throws in clutch moments. If you take into account he was saddled with XL, Chark, Mingo and Johnson for receivers at one point, had a coaching staff his first year that didn't want him and a current coach who is suspect at play calling, I'm not sure he has been as bad as people here say. I know he has had terrible moments/games but most qb's still on their rookie contract will.  Anyway, had to give my weekly BY plug. Guess I thought this was the perfect time lol.
    • He missed a lot of time. Was slow getting back up to speed. And we have an offense that is not exactly WR friendly so his targets were low.  How many targets does anyone get when you have 120 yards passing, 54 yards passing, 160 yards, most of the time? It probably took the time it needed to take.
    • The 5th year option jus gives them a little more time to make their decision and figure out the position going forward.  The idea that it means hes def gonna get a extension is asinine.
