2024 training camp thread

well apparently, he is an upgrade over McCaffery and Zack according to camp reports. Its a make-or-break year for him.

Doesn’t matter , prove it in games because his history is he doesn’t do it in games

If you are basing crap off of camp the Zack is killing him . Camp is a part of the process not the process.

well, a lot of people were writing of Brown b/c WR was going to be drafted this year. Playing at Rice shouldn't matter IMO. It was known that Maye was going to be a project and not pro ready for Week 1. Brissett will probably start Week 1

Rice matters because of level of competition and the inherent requirement to level up with greater competitors. That said, I believe that his biggest obstacle has been his lack of experience at the position, and the upside promise that he's shown. This is why I'm confident that the organization will find a place for him
As for Maye, there was a lot of debate on this board between Daniels and Maye leading up to the draft, so it wasn't common knowledge among those favoring him, concerning his (Maye's) proreadiness.

I remember Daniels being more pro ready at draft time and Maye needed to be developed. When we hired KK, I liked the fit with JD. Both are talented.

Alot of good WR's came from non-big time schools.

Brown is having a good camp, let's hope he shows it in the regular season. If you going to dismiss what he has done in camp this year that is your opinion.

I remember telling the board that Daniels was the guy long before the draft and that it was questionable if Maye was the 4th best QB in this past draft. (I had Williams, Daniels and Penix as the top 3)

I'm not sure what you mean by "good" but I consider guys like Dotson good players. Luke has done well with so little experience. Considering that, his upside looks promising, especially if it's their plan to make him the slot guy.

The one thing that doesn’t concern me about Luke McCaffrey is that he will be ready. With the family bloodline, he’s probably forgotten more about being a wide receiver than a lot of the guys in rooms around the NFL.

It’s more a question of getting those reps in this offense and not overthinking things, which is coming to come with time. But as a former QB, he also has that book knowledge.

There’s a reason, even coming out of Rice as a two year WR, that he went in the third round.

Jerry Rice went to that football factory Mississippi Valley State.

Actually, LM is new to the position. He has a whole lot to learn. That is what makes him so impressive though. His time as a QB won’t hurt either though.

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

Not saying that Dean , however when he got opportunities he failed to capitalize. Now if he couldn’t get playing time over Samuel or Dotson then how is he an upgrade or status quo now ?

I'm with dad on this one. Brown is supposed to be a deep ball specialist and in his few opportunites he dropped several. And that's all he brings to the team and really isn't all that fast. If he was a real WR able to run routes and be productive we would have seen it by now, beating out Docton and Samuel for playing time would not have been hard. But he has had 3 seasons and has not produced, I don't think he makes the team.

Brown doesnt make the team this year? Have you been reading the training camp reports? They have him as WR3 right now. Yes beating out Dotson a 1st round pick and Samuel a big money FA would be hard.

yes he has to develop but a lot of this board was way down on Brown. So, for Brown to be the WR3 as of right now its very good for Brown. He wasnt a Peters draft pick.,

we get all acc games here,i saw a lot of unc games,maye never impressed me much.

 

[kbso83432]

Skins have Zaccheaus listed in front of Brown and Luke on today's depth chart drop.

We get a whole lot of the ACC here as well and what's impressive about Maye has been his physical attributes and some of the throws that he makes when he's "on" his game. He's inconsistent as hell, and his style of play reminds me of Sam Howell in many ways. Given enough time and patience, I see the potential, but he has to really work towards putting it all together.

Yeah, his performance in that Virginia game was really disappointing, but for me the one that I wanted him to really show something was Clemson. To me the ACC is more of a basketball conference eventhough they've had some teams do well nationally. Clemson to me was a great game for him to show that against better competitors he could do well as he would in the NFL.
