I want him to be good, I want him to be in our receiving corps . . . . but everytime I think he takes a step forward . . . he takes 2 steps back . . . . I mean he is so inconsistent w/ catching the ball its crazy. I mean u could actually have nicknames for some of our players based on their actions. Hagan - The dropper Marty Booker - The slipper . . . but I chill w/ the dropper as well. John Beck - The statue Cleo Lemon - The mobile statue David Martin - Mr. Catch and Drop Schulters - The clutz (3 times this guy was just embarrassed . . . the missed INT, Welker broke his ankle and he bumped Randy Moss when Jason Allen was in stride w/ Randy on the deep ball . . . thank goodness no PI was called) Chatman - The spinner (Jessie is a tuff runner, but his receiver skills and pass protection blows.) Peele - The NON-blocking TE (boy his blocking IMO, is overrated) Daniels - Mr. Hype when I'm not toast. (but I'm usually toast) Feely - Mr. I pooch kick out of bounds because my special teams coverage SUX I mean it hurts so much its almost comical . . . . gotta take away the pain some how. Outside of Feely and Beck (I still have hope) . . . I could care less to see any of these guys back.
Travis Daniels is hard to watch. After a good rookie year you would have thought he'd be half-way decent but he just sucks.
Hagan will be here next year. I don't expect to see him on the field much though. I definitely see us going hard after patrick Crayton, and Ted Ginns going to remain our #3. Hopefully we get another guy as well. I don't know though, Marty in no way is a great player, but without him our WR corp looks very very weak instead of just weak.
Catching the football is not something you can improve on at this level, you either have the instincts and talent or YOU DONT, he's a scrub, goodbye
One of our problems is that we have two receiving Te's who cannot really block very well, and they cannot catch very well. Daniels is just torch material right now, granted putting him man on man on Moss is not a good move... Beck the Rook, Cleo the heartless, Matt Roth should have kept the weight off and just played his normal game this year...bulking him up has not worked, and a bum groin just makes things worse for him and us. Schulters was walking the street for a reason folks, he hasn't played since 2006. We are like that team in the film Major League without the hollywood ending....
It depends. If it's a matter of physical ability, then you may be right. However, he may be lacking focus, in which case you keep the guy and work with him.
I understand Martin's problems in the blocking game (tho he can't catch very well either) . . . . but Peele technically isn't supposed to be a "receiving TE" . . . he is here for his "blocking ability" . . . and I just don't see it.
