Quote:How do you figure he's not a good football player? I see all kinds of potential for Corey to be a great player. So far in practice, I don't think he's had a touch where he hasn't gone the distance practically untouched.

I didn't watch him at Auburn, but after he was signed, I remember reading the scouting report posted by one of our posters saying that he lacked vision and lateral agility,which is why he went undrafted.


From what I saw last season, he obviously has great straight line speed. If you gave his speed to Yeldon, we would have our new Fred Taylor. I saw good straight line speed, but he lacks what makes a good running back (vision, agility, etc). Like someone else poinTed out, he goes down at the first hint of contact.


However this is all moot. I think Denard is the better 4th option, but hopefully, it doesn't matter who makes it, because neither would see much time. Looking forward to the preseason games and seeing Grant and Robinson battle it out. I see Denard as more reliable on kick returns, whereas Grant would be the more explosive one. Denard can also play on kick/punt coverage, whereas Grant cant. We will see.
