jetsrule128 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 The Lions are releasing Breshad Perriman as part of their first round of roster cuts, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports. ESPN first reported the move early Monday. NFL teams have until 4 p.m. Tuesday to reach the 53-man roster limit. The Lions are now at 79 players. Perriman's release comes as little surprise after he finished with one catch for 6 yards this preseason and had more drops (two) than catches (one) against the Colts. The son of ex-Lions receiver Brett Perriman, Breshad missed time in training camp with a hip injury and was only modestly productive when healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing that there were a significant number of Jets fans who wanted to keep Perriman this year. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 LOL. Classic 1st round bust. Beware WRs drafted by Baltimore Ravens. As if we Jets fans have anything to brag about.... we have been even worse at drafting WRs. Man, if Mims busts out then the curse continues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How Boykin and Duvernay turn out remains to be seen, but joining that team is different than joining a bottom of the barrel team. Guys have to contribute right away. They are not getting volume to develop. They drafted Darren Waller in the 6th. If it weren't for the substance abuse issues that probably would have been a nice pick. Have to say I am not the biggest fan of Bateman, so he will probably be great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggs Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 He was a patch. We practically turned over our entire WR room in 2 years. It looks like one of the strongest parts of the team right now. Not sure what anyone's complaining about? Hoped he would be better last year thought he was a 1 to 2 year band aid at best. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetroitRed Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Not saying Sam is going to be great this season, but he definitely has a chance to shut some people up and have a very nice year. He had Crowder to begin last year and that was it. That’s a complete joke. The rest of his starting skill positions are out of the league 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sec101row23 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 How bad of a WR do you have to be to be cut by the Lions this year? Look at their WR room, it rivals those of the Jets from the past few years. Perriman is a cautionary tale that if you can’t catch the ball in college, you aren’t going to be able to catch the ball in the NFL, no matter how fast you can run.

Given his production in the 2020 season you're scoffing at, $10MM/yr is an under-market contract. If he was a FA following that season instead of a second season with Darnold he'd have gotten much closer to the $15MM/yr he was seeking. Other than guys still on their rookie contracts, how many receivers behind him (in $) were noticeably better and more productive in 2020? I'm not really seeing any who are clearly/objectively superior. How many WR making more than RA were not as effective last year? Jeffery, Tyrell Williams, E.Sanders, TY Hilton, Fitzgerald, Shepard, Boyd, AJ Green, OBJ -- none of those 9 top 25 WRs by money were top 25 in production last year either (nor even measured up to RA's numbers with the WR-maker gunslinger Bridgewater). That's not even counting superior and pricier WRs like Thomas, Kupp, & Woods who had down, less-productive years in 2020. He was worth the $ differential between money to a cap-rich Jets team looking to see whether or not its golden boy QB was worth not just keeping for a 4th season, but also reinvesting in a ~$20MM guaranteed 5th year. On an amortized basis, the team saved very little cash between the two WRs considering that importance. What's done is done, I'm very happy WR is finally looking like a Jets team strength (at least on paper thus far), but it wasn't a prudent choice at the time. However things worked out in spite of a poor decision, the plan was never for Perriman to be such an unreliable disappointment he wasn't worth retaining for a second season and the team had to go WR shopping again in both FA (x 2) plus with another high draft pick. Hey, bad decisions can still work out to a team's benefit. It might be that this is such a case, and I'm hoping it is. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Sammy will not have the excuses he had here and those excuses were 100% valid. Worst coach in the league by a country mile. Laughable WRs most who got hurt, no TEs, no Oline, no RBs. He has tons more to work with in Carolina, starting with a good oc and do it all RB. Will be interesting to watch what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their OL is as bas as ours was last year, and even when he plays well like he did over the weekend he is on the edge of having a bad day. He is just not very good in my view.
