Turner stayed behind after practice and caught passes from the JUGS machine along with Anthony Fasano.
HC Sparano mentioned PT having a great week of practice along with being able to play on Special Teams, at least two of the 4 units, and it would make sense to see what Turner can do when the bright lights and the pressure of a nationally televised game is brought to bare on him.
I'd like to see what he can do for us, our Wr corps has been pedestrian at best and Turner offers a large target who can be a factor in the endzone.

would love to see turner have a good game with his college QB watching on the sidelines!

i dont think he'll play this week but it did sound like he will get a shot soon. Good news. Hopefully Chris Clemons is next on deck. Maybe week 10

Wasn't it Snatchez who gave Patrick big props in the pre-season too?dolfan7171 and SICK like this. -

I wouldnt be suprised to see him soon, the Robot probably has developed a rapport with him in practice as well

If they play him, for the love of God, please use some slant and post routes. It's his game IMO. It's what he does best, as well as work the come back routes on the sideline.

id honestly like to see bess thrown to more.....enless his performance last season has drawn more attention, it seems hes not as involved in the offense as much this season

I'd let Bess and Greg C work the middle and Ginn do his usual coverage run off, Turner is a redzone option and Hartline is the WC, and really sort of a key to the game for us. -
Mr. RedZone
has to make his bones sooner of later
Turner has been lost in the shuffle so far. can only suit up four WR's:
Camarillo, Bess, GinnJr. & Hartline, so Turner sits
there are no easy games on the schedule,
he needs playing time to develop & be evaluated properly
so who sits? won't be Hartline, Camarillo or Bess. GinnJr? or do we carry five? doubt it.
Turner better make the best of his opportunities when they come his way. we shall see.
Monday Night? -

Thinking Turner will have much of an impact Monday night is wishful thinking, nothing more... nothing less.djphinfan likes this. -
Either way, this seems to be a moot point because there's a good of a chance of Henning calling for a slant in the game as me becoming a billionaire. Also, I don't see the Jets dropping overly heavy Kris Jenkins into coverage. Ryan did it with Ngata but Ngata's agility is off the charts.Pandarilla and djphinfan like this. -
This is one of the downsides to a young team, no one, not even the coaches, know what they are going to do and what they can do, Henne may hit Turner on a deep post in the first half for all we know.dolfan7171 likes this. -

Once Henne gets a little more comfy out there, i feel our passing game will open up some. Until then it's heavy, heavy doses of R&R.

We need a Wr who can make something out of nothing, Greg C and Bess are good Wr who will get open in the short and middle range game, but things have to be perfect for them, we need someone like Turner or maybe Hartline who can make a play and get wiiiidddeee open.
To me, Ginn can get wiiidddee open, but his lack of polish means he just is not that great of a target for Henne. -
And Jerricho Cotchery might not play! Sore hamstring. That would be huge for Miami!
-
we need to get both Turner and Clemons on the field .... but doubt that will happen this week, since we have the bye right after ....
for Turner, who's spot does he take ... a STer, but who ... Clemons and Roth are much easier to swap out ... -
If nothing else having him on the field and knowing that Henne has the arm to hit him in stride ought to help keep defenses honest. -
The slant may or may not work dependent on where the safeties are lined up, or coverage areas.
Ryan is more of an overload guy to begin with. The idea is to find David Harris underneath - he is a target in coverage.
Ryan will probably blitz more from the secondary than his backers. There will be a safety on just about any overload blitz, and you can get a bit of a read from the inside linebackers if you pay attention. We need to shift formations to see if the backers flop, or if they check. There are ways to beat the defense. -
passing game= a passer + a receiver
