A Byrd Caught In the Webb

I have not posted in a while but all this info and training camp news has gotten the old juices flowing....So with that said a lot of the talk around here is that Byrd If he makes the team It would be for special teams. With that said I'm not sure how many special team/utility guys we need on a roster thats already deep at the main position both these guys would most likely see time at(outside special teams) So with that said does Byrd's chance to make the roster finally make Webb a man with out a home? Sure Webb does a lot more and plays 3 roles for the team but chances are he wont see time at QB(barring some downright meltdown In which case i would rather sign some guy with more starting exp.) Not many teams carry 3 qbs all year but It is nice to have a guy that can play that role as well,But if it is up to me and It means keeping a Dynamic special teams guy and Improving WR I take Byrd cut Webb and see how thing shake down with the rest of the wideouts....I hate to see Bersin Philly or Steven Hill gone just for a special teams spot...so have at It what say you?

Considering they just extended Webb in March I think he's a lock.  At his size and athleticism who can replace him as scout team QB, gunner, and return blocker? I don't think it's Byrd. He's a  more useful than Hill IMO. His versatility frees up roster space as opposed to wasting it.

    • The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't. 
    • I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong.
