Re: Brandon Banks
Maybe. This is a disadvantage that we hadn't really discussed yet as far as his weight goes..
Rich_Campbell Tiny Justin Tryon just put Brandon Banks on the ground during an attempted run block. Again, Banks' size is a big disadvantage at WR. |

Re: Brandon Banks
I saw Tryon make a big hit at the game too, don't underestimate him because of his size.
Barnes hit Jahvid Best so hard that his breakfast came back up...little guys CAN hit sometimes.

Re: Brandon Banks
Anyone remember Tim Dwight? He was 5-8/180 and returned kicks for a long time -- and did it very well too.

Re: Brandon Banks
I remember him. He was an excellent returner but a marginal receiver. At 180 lbs. he was also 20% bigger than Banks.

I agree with those who said,if he returns another TD on PR or even KR...He's a lock to make team. (I think he makes it regardless,unless he starts fumbling them over and over cause you can tell Shanahan loves this kid)

Re: Brandon Banks
What's sad about ARE's stats, that 102 yards on 17 returns included a 43-yarder...so his other 16 returns were for 59 yards (3.69 yds/ret) and 3 fumbles.
Except for ONE SINGLE RETURN, he was absolutely useless.

Re: Brandon Banks
banks is too small to play receiver and i don't think we keep him solely for his return duties.

Re: Brandon Banks
I keep saying this, I think Banks would be a nice 3rd down back recieving only though IMO.

Re: Brandon Banks
Something else to consider, hopefully the scouting department is eyeing WRs/return specialists playing for others teams right now. If there is better talent available, they may opt to go in that direction.
