I'm pretty psyched about this guy. With a good TC and Preseason he'll beat out Hurd or Austin I think. He looks far more polished coming in than either of them did.

With the big, strong DBs in the NFL, Amendola will definately have to play in the slot. As he shows, though, 40 times aren't everything. Quickness, precise routes, and great hands could keep him in the league for a long time. Man, if both of our speed guys stay healthy, & Amendola comes in for the 3 package, it will resemble the Pats offense. Add Witten, and what a dilemma for the defense.

Their point was that he does it with his quickness and extreme precision in route-running. If both didn't stand out to you when watching the video, I don't know what to tell you.

The Welker comparisons seemed forced to me at first, but he has the same "water bug" quickness and precision that Welker has. Neither is going to run a route over 10 yards in depth, but in the slot they can kill you.

I see how this is going to go. This guy is people's new pet cat so of course you then have to downgrade others to make room.

I hope he does well but the zero sum mentality is one part of human behavior that ihave never liked.

You need a hug and a cookie man.

Nothing wrong with churning the bottom of the roster.

I cant say the guy can or cant do something based on anything in that video.

They aren't going off the video, I listen to their podcast, and he's a guy they've mentioned several times. Draftguy's likes to cover the lesser known prospects in the draft, so it's safe to say they didn't base their opinion on 10 seconds of video. You simply made that assumption all on your own.

Nah i prefer cake but i try not to eat it.

I really do think its one of the sadder things in the human experience that people think that by lessening someone else it makes themselves or those they advocate better.

So, you seriously think it's "one of the sadder things in the human experience" that someone thinks Amendola looks more polished coming into the NFL than Miles Austin or Sam Hurd?

Drama queen?
