It's a shame TJ didn't see many targets this pre season.
I would have liked to see TJ Moe kept over Givens. Givens is overrated in my opinion
Now I think you're going a little far on that one. Givens has shown he can play, but has dropped off. Replacing him with Moe, who doesn't even bring the same thing that Givens does, is a bit of an oversight.
To me Givens has hit his ceiling. He hasn't done anything other than score on a whiffed tackle. He doesn't come back to or fight for the ball. I would rather see if someone else has a higher ceiling. JMO
TJ Moe has shown nothing at all though. At least Givens has made a play or two and has made plays in the past. Moe didn't stand out and didn't deserve the roster spot.To me Givens has hit his ceiling. He hasn't done anything other than score on a whiffed tackle. He doesn't come back to or fight for the ball.

Who's our burner then? Tavon has that 40 yard jitterbug speed, but Givens is our true long range burner.
Remember that Chris wasn't playing to his strength last year. I think he'll be in just for those deep balls this year, because he has slid down the depth chart.

whoTJ Moe wasn't given much off a chance to show anything in preseason. No idea how he was in camp. I'm just not a Givens guy.
Not given much of a chance or not, he didn't make the most of the chances he did have, and I'm sure there was a reason why he didn't get many snaps or chances. I'm not as high on Givens anymore either but you can't expect him to get beat out by a guy who hardly played.TJ Moe wasn't given much off a chance to show anything in preseason.

Fair enough not being a Givens guy but Moe hasn't done anything - so you're not gonna cut a guy whos real fast - like superman fast, has scored TDs in this league and actually set a record for consecutive games with completions over 50 yards for a guy who hasn't proved anything. Maybe Moe will be good - maybe he wont, and maybe Givens has ceilinged out (I don't think he has - hes still young and can obviously work on things like fighting in traffic and running crisper routes) but you aint gonna get an unknown unproved unfathomable to replace that!
WHOA NELLIE!!!! The one thing Chris Givens has NOT done with any consistency is score TDs. He has THREE in 25 starts, and 31 games he has played in. All this talk of him taking the top off of defenses is actually tiresome, because he hasn't done it other than in those now infamous games in his rookie season. For what it's worth, his 75 yard TD catch and run this past week never happens come Sept. because THAT route and role be Tavon Austin's once they count.who
