The fact that Coleman’s still on the team indicates he’s tentatively in the plans this year. It’s not like the new decision makers have been shy about cutting or trading people. All l know is that Coleman has shown the ability to make some really good catches. Question is can he make them consistantly and when it really matters? Remains to be seen, but l squarely think there’s more to gain by giving him a shot than not. New QBs on this team, and you never know who Tyrod or Baker will find their chemical groove with, so why not throw them on a grid with wideouts who have at least shown some potential and see where the cards fall?

Didn’t the Sex Pistols not go to their Rock N Roll HOF induction? Clearly it’s the punk thing to do.

Perhaps that could be Coleman’s role. Less things and people to crash your hands into way out there.

Good stuff. I’m hopeful for Coleman too. Mostly because the guy has flashed some skills, and l hate the thought of yet another first round bust. Another thing going for him, and Higgins and Louis conceivably, is it’s a real young group of receivers. Dorsey seems to like a good balance of vet presence to balance out the rookies, hence the Landry and Janis signings. Also, if Landry really does do more than slot receiver as Gumby theorized, someone will have to fill that role. Higgins looked good doing it, and conceivably Coleman has the speed, size, and shiftiness to do it. Not sure where Louis fits in, but l hope he turns heads doing whatever that is just cuz l like people named Ricardo.

I’m hung up on the fact that we collectively refer to multiple runs batted in as RBIs instead of RsBI. It’s “runs batted in”, not “run batted ins”. That’s like saying passer bys, or lady in waitings.

Higgins may be a wild card for the wideout room. He had a few good games last year in a slot role. Somebody has to be the main backup for Landry in that role and l think he’s got a shot.

His punt blocking prowess! Haha He’s like the elder statesman on the team by now, having been with the team since 2014. Him and Maybe Kirksey? Tank Carder?

The public intoxication charge of Mayfields seems to get so much play. It reminds me if this joke... https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/26pf4s/an_irishman_at_the_bar_heavy_npr_listeners_might/

I rather liked the previous rated R atmosphere. To be fair, a shmuck is the part of the penis that gets thrown out after a circumcision. That’s kinda nastier than the word it’s trying to mask.

Right on. I suppose it’s a good sign that Orchard’s on the roster still then. Maybe someone within the new regime saw something they could work with. I saw your words in another thread about the Ratley pick and was intrigued with the QB discombobulation situation at A & M. Good call. Continuity is good.

You may be right. I might be crazy. I’m done watching film for a while, but he may just be the lunatic we’re looking for. This is the thing l hate about regime changes, l don’t think the new guys do their due dilligence to see where their existing assets may fit in with what they are trying to do. He was drafted as a pass rush guy, but in all the changes no one bothers to see how and where he might fit in. I root for weak links. Sports are boring without them. Like pitchers batting in the NL. It usually doesn’t go well, but when it does, man is that fun.

That seems like hyperbole at best to say that. I root for the guy and hope he can turn some heads this year.

Oddly enough we seem to do better with middle round picks. I seem to recall having this observation before with older drafts. Perhaps we should trade all first round picks for 2nd and 3rd rounders?

Oddly enough both guys were picked just a few picks apart in the 6th round in drafts a year apart. Kinda bummed at first thinking Telfer did ok for the Browns as the main blocking TE, but PFF gave him a poor grade, so l suppose no major loss. Nicolas only credited with 1 pass defended and zero tackles in 11 games, so l suppose he’s the guy that occupies other guys so that other guys can make a play.

This is my thought, the super sub role, and let circumstances determine where his playing time will be. Definitely sparked my interest when they drafted this guy at the tippy top of round 2, like out of all the guys left he was the guy they had to have, even over RB Chubb whose name we’ve heard bandied about for weeks.
