Jd8 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 I don't have high hopes for him. I am really hoping for Hunter to have a breakout season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvyablue256 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Shawn Jefferson was saying that Preston is the only guy that can mentally and physically play every receiver position. Very hard worker and understands the entire offense. So why isn't he? Because, Nate. Right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvyablue256 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Why isn't he what? If Preston is so gifted, why is he best friends with the bench? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 If Preston is so gifted, why is he best friends with the bench? I didn't say he was so gifted. I said he was a hard worker and can play all the spots. He's riding the bench because he's less talented than the 3 guys in front of him obviously.

Face Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Depth charts in the NFL are far from fair, the better players don't always play ahead of less talented guys, money & draft status hold a lot of weight. I'm not saying this is the case with Preston but he should have been ahead of Williams last year, he flat out looked better in the preseason. I'll still never understand why Munch couldn't get him playing time the last 2 games of the year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted June 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I don't have high hopes for him. I am really hoping for Hunter to have a breakout season! They can BOTH have good seasons, you know. Hunter is in our top 3 WRs. I'm just asking if Preston would be after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd8 Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 And I am just saying I'm not expecting much from Preston. He is like the Tommie Campbell of our WR's always hear good things durning the offseason and will show some flashes here and there but never does shit when the season starts.

Jd8 Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Those are all excuses. Britt and Dwill suck. The staff did not even want to play Britt and he still couldn't beat him out for a spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 My impression from press reports is that whiz wants a team that competes every practice.. And the best players will get playing time.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 They aren't even excuses...it's just an explanation. There's no way Preston was moving ahead of those guys at the time. Now, he'll get a legit shot. New coaching staff will look at everyone on their merits. Preston was a bit raw (as Soxcat notes, he had a big leap to make from college). But now he's got enough experience and such that he should be able to show what he can do. I know it's a new system, but that's true for everyone. So he should get a legit shot this time around, and hopefully he'll make it work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy caught a bomb against Atl's 1st stringers in the preseason & 2 TD's against Arizona which was basically all he played. I'd like to see what he can do with more snaps.

Guest Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Hunter Wright and Washington are the top 3 without a doubt. Preston should get some looks in the 4WR sets and may spell any of the first three since Whisenhunt runs a lot of Bunch formation plays. If he's any good hell get a chance to prove it this season in a real offense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
