He's not special. Literally every NFL team has a Daurice Fountain on their roster bubble at this point in the year.
Some Fountains are more talented or better than others, but you can basically lump them all together in the same category of "WR 5/6 who shouldn't ever be taking significant offensive snaps in a game". And the ones who break the trend and eventually become okay or even great NFL players are quite rare.
Again, hope he proves me wrong and like Detoxing said, shows that he's more Victor Cruz than he is Fred Williams. Hell, I'd be satisfied with him just turning into another Byron Pringle.
In the meantime, people are having wet dreams about the possibilities for him on this team when it's not even clear if this asshole can beat out Kemp and/or Powell for the final roster spot. And he's DEFINITELY not making the team over Robinson. You can have your opinions of Robinson all you want, but they don't matter next to Reid's opinions. Robinson is staying, and Fountain is on the bubble. I'd say he's a coin flip away.
