ECURB Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Would Brad Smith be able to push his way up to the #3 spot? We can only use him in :gadgets" for so long before they just dont work anymore with a bench player... http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/421137 They list him as 3 games started this year, I would assume that means the #3 WR so Jmac won 13 times out of 16... If we can get smith in there on a regular basis we can get sneaky with the tricks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coles and Cotchery started all 16 McCareins- 7 Dwight-2 Smith-3 First 4 games we only started 2 wr's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DireJet38 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 This all depends on his maturation at the WR position. Personally, I feel that he would be best suited as a deep threat, but he must increase his speed and route running ability in the offseason. Maybe Cotch will take him under his wing and invite him to join in on his offesason training regiment. It was clear that Jerricho was able to make major gains during the offseason, and we can only hope that B. Smith takes that same step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read in one of the local papers on Tue. that Chad and Coles are tacking family vacations together... not that they will get in better shape... but the closer your QB and #1 WR are the better....

Smith is signed thru 2010, and Dwight is signed thru 2009 I believe... both at much lower cost than JMac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wr's need to be able to create separation and McCariens could never do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCareins was actually creating some seperation towards the end of the season, but it does not matter how much seperation you get whenever Chad's ducks allow the DB to catch up to you.

4HCrew Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 not sure why speed would matter so much when Chad cannot reach them or lead them deep. Smith will have a strong offseason and learn a ton more about how to play wr and should have a much bigger impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Doesn't McCariens get a big roster bonus if he isn't cut? If that's the case he's going to be cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 my guess McCariens will choose Reverend BBQ and the soft camps and easy practices over thewinning but tough attitude Eric has. KC here we come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
