Don't care if he starts or not. He just better be sat down if he isn't producing.. He shouldn't take away snaps from players that actually produce on the field.

Sure. As I recall, he was a great kick returner. Let's see how well he performs in that role + part time receiver and if it sends a message to his noodle hammies.

Recall that Miles also plays the slot.

Dez and Williams outside, Miles inside.
In total:
Dez outside
Miles inside and outside
Williams outside
Harris inside and outside backup
Beasely inside backup

Miles Austin is now our 4th wr. DEZ, Williams, and Beasley are all better options. Trade him for a bucket o chicken & call it a day.

games Beasley provides something in the slot no one else does. Is he better overall than a healthy Austin? No but then Austin is rarely fully healthy. But Beasley provides a perfect contrast and different type of option out there in relation to Dez, Witten, Williams etc.

We need Beasley out there for this offense to be complete. Putting him back on the bench is stupid just as was having him inactive the first couple of

watching him play looks like he is not running full speed to protect those hammy's. Plus beasley and harris are beast in the slot. Beasley is super quick and harris is about as quick as miles but breaks tackles and is shifty. Miles needs to be traded.

You people are crazy. Haven't we been through enough years where a lack of depth at a position just killed us when injuries cropped up to not trade away good players?

Let Miles give us all he's got this year, then we can address his value to the team in the offseason.

Rotate miles in and out.

Give him Punt Return and Kick Return duty.
He is quick as hell, is extremely physical and runs through CBs just like dez does.
Healthy Miles Austin is easily better than any other WR not named DEZ on this team.
