You're right and the key is ... protecting Sam. Also running the rock. It opens up things for the offense. Going OL heavy in this draft (or at least using early picks on upgrading) just could be the key. We can have SIX Sammy Watkins on the team.... but if your QB is on his ass in 2.5 sec's, it won't matter.I think a lot of us get impatient with guys like Austin, Bailey, and Quick.
We forget how green they are (were) and how much of a leap forward we could see this year.
It happens all the time at WR.
With Sam back... It could surprise some people.
Love Stedman Bailey. He and Tavon were my favorite duo in college.. still can't believe we got both of them. I think Sted can end up the best WR on this team.
I have the strongest feeling that Stedman is going to be a big deal 2 years from now. I think he'll begin this year showing flashes of what he's going to be. That guy does NOT miss catches if they are within reach. He's barely had a chance to play and I'd go out on a limb to say he's currently our best receiver. Not as fast as Tavon but as a full package I think he's gonna be incredible.
Now, why don't the Rams hire me to throw passes to him?
Here's a video of me playing some ball (slow motion) recently here in Portland, Oregon. Damn I love the game of football. Wish I wasn't getting so old.
I'm the QB and the DB in this video my son captured. Change it to 720p HD for larger picture.
Cool. Never been over to Newport yet. Technically I'm in Vancouver, WA but people understand where Portland is more.Looked like a kick. I'm also in Oregon here. We have a restaurant and brewery just east of Newport.
Yep. Used to live in Portland and worked all over the metro area including southern WA. If you find yourself heading out to the coast, let me know.Cool. Never been over to Newport yet. Technically I'm in Vancouver, WA but people understand where Portland is more.
Why do we need another WR, anyway? Any need we had for a 6th WR went out the window when we signed Britt... hopefully.
