Yes, he's tall and has hands, but that's about it. He's never flashed. He's never proven himself to be a chain mover. I think we like him because we fantasized about what he could have become. Of course, if I think there's little chance he's claimed that probably means there'll be a bidding war over him. He played one year. An injury plagued season and coming from a small school without a lot of opportunity to transition to the NFL. Teams that can afford to show patience and ease him. RR doesn’t really have to since our roster at WR is deep. 2 minutes ago, NickyJ said: If I had to choose between Cam and Kyle Allen, I'd pick Kyle. Cam was extraordinarily mediocre to me for the past few years. Both are back-ups at best but I do think Cam has a higher ceiling regarding the ability to dominate a game still.

Going Commando Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Maybe Ismael as the last man in on offense if he can play guard? If they cut Milne, I think it means he makes it to the PS. And I think that's what's going to happen unfortunately. The potential cut that scares me is Reyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be an okay football move, but it'd probably be a terrible chemistry move which is likely what Rivera thought about yesterday when he didn't sign him to back up Haskins last year.

KDawg Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 Reyes and Patterson are going to make it. Milne will make it. I think potentially Montez and Allen are released and we try to stash 1 or both on the PS (I have no idea what the PS rules are now that they change every 3 months, so may not be possible). McTyre/Juste are why Moreland and Johnson are gone. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet they do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjinhan Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 2 minutes ago, PartyPosse said: Young teams needing red zone targets. Hell, a team like Philly that has a bunch of 5’10 speed demons at the receiver position and not a lot of big bodies down at the goal line. Like I’ve said before, AGG’s appeal isn’t the same as the flashy guys. But still signing AGG to the active roster is a big gamble by the other teams. It is not like WFT is overflowing with WR talent. McLaurin, Samuels, and Brown are nice/great but it is not like the other WRs on the roster were WRs that are highly sought after and none of them are big body WR like AGG. So WFT that knows AGG the best cut him despite our lacking of big body WRs... another team is going to cut one of their WRs that was going to make the roster to pick up AGG? I think we are over valuing our backup players too much. Ashburn syndrome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your small you better be a playmaker like Darrell Green was.... He was making plays, its gotta be a height thing, like you said. Tough call, dont believe being a Jay guy had anything to do with it, wasn't like he was lazy or something. Cam Newton cut 👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monte51Coleman Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 The team wanted Peyton Barber to slim down coming into camp. Peyton Barber loses his job because he slimmed down. Oof. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until he made that over the shoulder catch on the sideline and took a big hit (out of bounds) and still held on to the ball. If I'm a coach and two players are close that play is really standing out in my mind in Milne's favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyst Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Not surprised by AGG - a few contested catches against backups in a preseason game is not a good look. Prior to that, he hadn't done anything. Similarly, not surprised by Moreland either. Never passed the eye test. Guys who are amazing in training camp but rarely show the same skills in regular season games should never be a surprise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the three you mentioned, AH was a lock and a virtual request to have from fitz, Cam is the big target the team needs and that’s already 5. Now if they keep Carter I’d question it unless he’s the full time PR. Rarely do highly-touted WR cut after one season remain unsigned. Haskins after 2 seasons was a disaster in every sense and even he got snatched up almost immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
