If Armanti is one of our top 6 WRs, then I want him on the team. If he's not, I don't. It's that simple. The trade and what we spent to get him are a sunk cost at this point. Personally, I'll be happy for him if he makes it. I'd love for him to finally be able to show something. But, at the same time, I'm not holding my breath.

AE would never get off the LOS against starting caliber NFL DBs. No butthurt here, just think we could be better off with somebody that can at least contribute on ST.

We'll see. If he can't get off the line during preseason games this year, I'll agree.

Norman was at practice last night, now he is out again today. Must have had a recurrence.

Not good.

i wouldn't read that much into it. he didn't really have a lot of time to recover after yesterdays practice. first day back i'd expect a bit of soreness the next day, esp. in the AM.

Simple we have six other receivers that are more talented than him he if he were to do well he will not make the team because he still won't be in the top six.

Smith

Lafell

Murphy

Gettis

Pilares

Adams

Talent doesn't mean poo. If he outperforms one of those six, and the coaches think he can perform better in a game, then he will make the team over one of them. Saying "it doesn't matter what he does" is complete mularky, because if he does better than other receivers he's going to make the team. The coaches don't hold personal grudges or biases like our fanbase.

    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
