Im hoping Hank has a breakout year. Robinson im hoping has a getout year. I see potential with Hank.

I would say we keep six guys (all this could change barring injury), but I also see someone other than one of these three taking a spot at wr.

Moss seems to get mentioned a lot the past couple days by pundits but I think at this point he has an uphill battle to make the final roster. Kind of sad seeing how much he's done for the team over the years.

Aldrick I'd argue is kind of redundant now as up to this point he was our poor mans Desean Jackson. However he's been having problems for a while now with inconsistency and while Jackson is capable of running a full route tree Robinson seems to be limited to go routes off play action. Of course you could also reframe it as giving Robinson a chance to learn from a pro bowler with a similar skill set so we'll see how that turns out.

I think the coaches want to give Hankerson every chance to make the roster and be a major contributor and might even want to have him compete with Andre Roberts but at this point his saving grace will probably be the lack of size among our receiving corps. Even more so when you consider how fond Gruden was in Cinci of bigger receivers, even outside of AJ Green.

Of course these days its not uncommon for coaches to favor the guys who do best in practice over the 'sexier' names among fans. James Thrash back in the day being the quintessential example.

I wonder if Gettis a WR we signed from the Panthers is fully healthy now. He played at Baylor and he has the size at 6-3 215 in the red zone. He might surprise if he can play special teams .

I know 1 thing we will need some WR to play special teams . I think the 4th or 5th WR will have to contribute on special teams.

I think James Thrash is a very sexy name.

Sounds like DJax will be 11.

Has there ever been a time where an Office Space scene wasn't relevant? Just pretend AR's nickname is Milton.


With that said might I suggest that Desean holdout for a bit?

Hope Aldrick's the odd man out. I think Hank has more upside and well, I just love Santana.

I really didn't want Desean, because I think he breeds trouble/discontent (ala T.O.).
But, maybe that's a wrong read on my part.

Either way, he's on the team and I'll root for him to help win games.

I was surprised that we got him at the price tag he signed for. That's at least one good step forward...he really wanted to be here & we didn't cave....a win all the way around.

I think this is Hank's last shot. Hell, one of the two might not make the squad as is.

Hahaha

Kevin Durant called DeSean Jackson to recruit him

Dale Jr., KD, Wale… pretty cool.

I dont see Robinson on the team this year. As mentioned he's a poor mans DJax and thats being kind; he's inconsistent, has trouble holding onto the ball. Add Roberts and DJax, who're better versions of Robinson, he's (Robinson) the odd man out
