Lol. All I meant was him being a guy that could make a clutch catch or 2 with his sticky hands. Didn't mean to infer any "white receiver" comparison,, just that it made me think of Ricky Proehl, that's all. How about Ernest Wilford then? He never did all that much, but came up with some terrific clutch grabs at times. Is that better?


AROB was supposed to be that guy,, but idk what happened to his sticky hands as of late.

You know it's bad when the fan base is hailing Brian Walters as a harbinger.

Its called the 54th man roster trick.

Quote:It goes like this: A vested veteran not subject to waivers gets cut late in the week, after being around long enough to get a game check. Then, immediately after the next game, the player returns to the roster. Eventually (sometime later that same week), the player is cut again.


Lather, rinse, repeat; right up until the trade deadline, after which all players who are released must pass through waivers.

Every year we seem to always have that one player that bounces on and off the roster each week.

This is what I'm thinking. That is, they probably plan to put Thompson back on the PS and re-sign Walters once Gratz is ready to play again. As a 27-year-old WR they might figure he's one of the best options to not get claimed, although I do believe he was the Jaguars fastest WR. Marquis is said to have speed, but Walters ran a much faster combine 40. At any rate, what really surprises me is they activated Thompson over Rashaad Reynolds.

I think Knarnn is right that he might bounce in and out the squad. And he will probably stay behind Rashad Greene as our third receiver. (And see limited action as a result). Gus and Dave probably don't see him as part of the long term future.


But given the failure of our receivers last week to hold onto simple passes, it's a little surprising there is no room for him in the short term.

Your memory is outstanding, my good man.

Of death, of course.  Is there any other type of harbinger?

Well. The elementary school example was always, 'The robin is a harbinger of spring.'

Bryan Walters could have been the next Richmond Flowers. How's that for obscure?

You do know Grazt and Cyp, are both out for this game right?

I still think the Jaguars will regret cutting Kevin Elliott and Armon Binns.

So we bacially have 4 receivers on the roster who get injured every game and a collection of TE plays that don't work in the regular season?

Lol. I went back and read every post in this thread. Unless I just completely missed it somewhere,, I didn't see one post that said Walters would be a difference maker.


I was probably closest to that,, saying that I thought he could catch 1 or 2 clutch plays (an important 3rd down conversion or something).


Some others mentioned his release was a little surprising due to the fact that he could actually catch, and the receivers playing ahead of him now look like they couldn't catch a beach ball with a bunch if stickem on their hands.


Never saw anything about how the Jags would regret releasing him. Geez
