Has Camden Brown made the 53?

[kskboys]

From my perspective, everything I've seen of Brown at camp and the preseason game, he is going to be a better receiver than Turpin. He has good speed and his catching ability and separation is really good... Lamb even said that Brown is "ONE OF THOSE" meaning, a dawg... Turp will be on the roster, but this brown kid is not going anywhere. I know we all have respect for flourney, but just maybe this kid is way better? we will find out soon enough once the skin starts flying around... My prediction is Brown will get to play and he will make the most of him limited snaps..

Lack of separation ability is one of his weaknesses.

You know the off season sucks enough. Now this?

It’s the wild, Wild West at the moment.

See, I appreciate comments like this... I'll look for route running inadequacies in the next preseason game.

As will I.

Hey, nothing wrong w/ getting excited about a kid who looks good in preseason, but the early anointing is just silly.

 

[kskboys]

He is a lock to make the team.

According to what information? Jesse Holley put you up to this?

 

[kskboys]

Cooper Kupp was slow in the 40 too. Was he stashed on a PS based on that?

Cooper Kupp runs incredibly sharp routes. Brown rounds off his routes, one of his weaknesses.

40 time is a terrible way to evaluate a player. Yes, it's part of the equation, but it's just not the endall.

Beware of the training camp/pre season studs when the regular season rolls around. I want the best for this kid but there always seems to be a standout in pre-season who shows nothing when the regular season rolls around.

Dude’s been balling since day 1. “But can he do it in a game?” He goes out and does it in a game. “It’s just preseason.”

According to me.

According to me.

The kid that had Romo making it as a rookie.

Would you agree that Camden in no way clears waivers? Because whether or not he’s made the 53 he certainly won’t clear waivers.

Well, there are going to be qualifiers ... because it is training camp and preseason. We've seen training camp heroes come and go, so it's hard to say he's made the 53. He's off to a good start, though, and that's all we can really expect at the moment. We certainly can't say that about every player.

He wont make it to the PS.

Every year fans say guys won’t make PS. Every year they do. It’s really rare for them not to

If he’s gonna make the 53 he’s gonna make it by playing good on ST. That’s the ticket to making the 53 and actually being active

 

[nathanlt]

Why not keep both?

I’m thinking that the offensive tackle spot could use an upgrade

Well, if he just looks too good at receiver to make the practice squad, he would probably be an inactive keeper. I think we sometimes get caught up in these bottom-roster players got to play special teams, but there also have to be inactives each week. Some of those will be hurt players, but some will be reserves who don't offer anything on special teams.

I've always had trouble with expecting receivers to be great on special teams coverage teams. I'd just prefer they be really good receivers.

How do you know this? Have you been at training camp? Do you have the All 22 subscription? Do you know Will McClay?

Well, if there’s an inactive keeper option, then he’s definitely made that. No practice squad for him that’s too optimistic when it comes to the waiver wire

This would work if there was another Jerry the GM in the league.

 

[erod]

If Brown doesn't make the team, then training camp is a bigger waste of time than I already thought.

He's owned this whole camp.

Cam is a good kid.

But he is slowww. 4.61 40

Stash him on the PS

Jerry Rice was 4.6 guy also, so was I. But why was I always open then? Because I was smart and was super quick in my cuts- yeah, they'd eventually catch me if they didn't get juked out of their shorts by me, but I'm living proof that 4.3's doesn't always make the best receivers.
