At least we get production from him and the occasional big play. He pretty much was the single reason we almost won the Raiders game at the end last year.

Hes not perfect but neither does he deserves all the crap alot of you guys heap upon him. Its tired.

Using a 2nd round pick on a gimmick type player, and it turns out all his gimmicky stuff doesn't really translate to the NFL very well.

He's not an all out bust like Siavii. And what he did last year is probably enough to buy him more time. But as someone else said, it turns out he's not that fast, not that elusive, and not that powerful. He may be a jack of all trades, but it's reasonable that he could be replaced with masters of individual trades.

I think I said it last year. If he finds his vision, he can probably be a good player. I do think he has the athleticism to make people miss. He just hasn't shown the vision and timing for it.
