Opportunity for McCants?

[FRPLG]

I hadn't even seen our current WR corp on paper yet but it is enlightening. I Can't see anyway McCants makes this team with these four guys locks for the team.
Moss/Patten/Thrash/Jacobs

That leaves one spot for a WR and with Brown's flashes of ability I'd be surprised if he's gone. They did lineup Thrash some in passing downs at H-Back last year so I guess they could conceivably carry 6 WRs but that doesn't seem likely. I don't even see where we put a drafted WR now. Unless Brown is gone. Either way I think Brown makes the team before McCants. I do think McCants will be given a shot in camp but who is he going to beat out?

It's completely up to Darnerian. I've heard his work ethic sucks. If he wants to play he needs to prove himself, 'cause slackers arent starting on Gibbs' team.

Brown was a mid-season pick-up that another team (I think Buffalo) had cut, and is another small, fast receiver, which we have plenty of. The only way I see them keeping him is if they cut Morton and keep him solely as a returner/ emergency wide-out.
McCants has the other attributes that give him an edge, but I see what FRPLG means....I don't know who he would beat out, so he would end up as the 5th, almost always inactive receiver again....and that's if they don't draft a WR. That's why I said I could see them going with Thrash or Jacobs as the posession guy.

Rest assured one way or the other Brown is staying he's not just another fast reciever, he's the fastest, and he's electrifying on kick return's the guy stop's and go's on a dime. Morton should be gone I don't see the need for him we have better at every position he play's, possibly we keep him for depth but that's it.
