Eh. He caught 1 ball and dropped another. Would like to see video of the catch though.

We have a new Jet Sweep guy. I don’t expect anything more than what Lucky Whitehead and Lance Dunbar….

The problem that little guys who succeeded in college have in the pros is that bigger corners with good speed/recovery like to come up and bump and run with them because they can keep them from getting their legs under them to use their speed. The guys who succeed are those who can handle/escape from those situations and then blaze away from the CB. That causes defenders to back off them and respect their speed. We'll see if this is something Turpin can regularly handle.

I like the vatto....i think he can be a big asset IF, as stated he can stay healthy I really liked Lance Dunbar as a player but he just couldn’t stay healthy.....

I don't see it especially when everyone is healthy. He's not sniffing more than Tolbert, Gallup or Lamb....probably add Washington to that as well. Then there's Schultz at tight end. And its far fetched but I honestly see Pollard getting more looks in the receiving game.

i dont trust theboy genius to use him properly,he will be stuck with jet sweeps for his cowboy tenure instead of beating DBs with his speed.

I think he will get his chance some in pre season...he did it in HS, College, USFL, he now needs to show he can do it against pre season NFL...if he can we will see what he can do in the Regular season. Kid was electric at TCU, if he gets the ball he will make plays.....
