That's what I'm curious about as well. Luckily the routes you run as a WR don't really change, even if the terminology does. So at worst you could tell him what to run from the huddle lol.
He was a very good receiver with good speed once upon a time. Was an 1100-yard receiver a few years ago. Injuries derailed him. He was diagnosed with testicular cancer this summer. Right now he's your #5 WR and the most experienced/eldest man at the position.
If you're implying that there are 4 other WRs on the team, I'll have to respectfully disagree. We have Marshall, Bess, and who else?
The bolded part I did not know. I figured at 32 he still had enough juice for 4 games, but now I'm definitely not so sure.
He has some talent and if he's physically healthy - then he's a good signing. After Bess & Marshall, there's no one on the roster that really knows how to be an NFL receiver. He won't learn the playbook but players don't need that to get in the game and contribute. He can learn half a dozen plays at the the slot and run the routes and actually contribute a bit.
I agree with Moore, he hasn't shown anything. I am surprised he hasn't been cut already. might as well see if Julius Pruitt has anything. When Wallace made the team everyone knew he was going to be an investment. he is not the type of player to play well during his first season. If he works hard and learns more how to be a wide receiver over the offseason, he is worth keeping.
The guy had speed. If he still does, you can use him to take the top off of the defense and hit Marshall/ Bess on intermediate routes.
Brian Hartline is far more than a "token white-guy". Hartline was as productive as Brandon Marshall before his injury.
Terrible joke. Ripping on someone because they hand cancer is bush league. Kevin Curtis was a heck of a player and a good guy. He won't stick long in Miami but beating cancer deserves some kudos.
At least people here don't bash just Henne undeservedly. It's like some here expect everybody to be Dan Marino and Jerry Rice their first year in the league. It's fairly well known that WR's need 3-4 seasons under their belt before you expect anything from them. Moore and Wallace are both rookies and even though they haven't shown us much, neither has the great Brandon Marshall with this play calling. I think they both have the size and speed to be good WR's.
"Juice"? He had testicular cancer, and now you're not sure if he has "enough juice" for 4 games. A little compassion please.
Respectfully, do you understand concepts like "coverage", "single coverage", "combo coverage", stuff like that? Just curious b/c your statement could be misconstrued as being ignorant, no offense.
Ya know-- it's a good thing you didn't accidentally say balls instead of catches or else you'd be berated by the morale police.
Respectfully, get over yourself. You're new to this forum, so please don't come in here trying to take it over.
Curtis was one fast dude with great hands just a few short years ago. Didn't know about his battle with cancer, but assuming he's fully recovered from any surgery/treatments, and further assuming he's been training to get back into football shape, it will be intriguing to see what he can offer these last few games. We need help at the position, so he's definitely worth a look IMO. As an aside, does anyone know if he brings any special teams abilities with him?
And it's not like the Iggles would be missing him right now anyways, so maybe we'll get a pleasant surprise here.
