Messing with bull and losing the Horne

Ok, I know that the title of this thread is utterly reeruned. I am aware of it, so let's talk football.

I am under the impression that our WR from Mass, Mr. Horne, looks to be a pretty good wideout so far. While I understand we're only halfway through the preseason, he was open a few times in game one, and had our only TD in game two. In limited action it appears the game isn't too big for him, he has good size, hands, speed and he might make a nice addition to our WR core. While I'm not sure his performace warrants a jump to 2nd or 3rd string, I will say that aside form special teams, he has a bigger upside than Copper. He certainly has shown me more in limited action than Long, Urban, and Lawrence.

My concern is that we're going to cut him and then try and and sneak him on the practice squad. This will not work. I'm going to be as disappointed as Hog Farmer with a barn full of sows if we do this becasue someone will sign him to their 53. Count on it.

The WRs should be:

Bowe, Chambers, McCluster, Urban and Horne.

They could keep Copper too and consider only keeping Jones and Charles at RB.

I think we've got to keep 3 backs, although since McCluster is our utility man, that might work. I don't know about Urban though. I haven't seen shit from him.

I'd hate to let Battle go just to keep Copper

I guess I haven't seen enough to say I think he's won a spot on the roster. I'm going to have to defer to the expertise of the coaches.

Every year it seems we have some WR that works his way into the hearts of fans during preseason. I can't think of many that actually went on to be anything.

Sorry I didn't see that. I must have been doing something else. Perhaps we need to discuss this further?

No need to apologize. If I were busting balls, I would have just said "repost."

Just wanted you to be able to see the opinions that have been thrown out.

I also can't remember one of these "hearts and minds" receivers of the last few years that actually caught a TD in preseason running with the 1st team. I don't think the 2nd coming of Jerry Rice; Bobby Sippio ever did, but I could be wrong. Actually, did we have any WR that caught a TD in the preseaon in the last 5 years? I'm sure we have, but sadly, it doesn't seem like it...

To reiterate what I said in the other thread, and to elaborate a little, I don't know that Horne will ever amount to anything more than a guy that can stretch the field.

However, we do need that kind of receiver on this team.

He has the speed, and better size than McCluster, who is the only other option with speed to stretch the field.

I totally agree. Our QB is not the most accurate with the long ball. If we're going to chuck it up there, we need a big WR that can fight for the ball. McCulster is not going to win many of those, even against your average 5'9 DB.
