camp body

 

[Syracusecards]

seriously, is Keim trolling us now?

 

[Solar7]

Who needs a WR2?

 

[ASUCHRIS]

Padding the underbelly, love it!

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Oh boy!

 

[Shane]

I mean the kid averaged about 8 yards per game give him a chance…. Clearly there’s some level of production in there

 

[Cheesebeef]

who?

 

[mjb21aztd]

Next man up see if he signs

 

[Shane]

who?

Did you read my post he’s a gamer

 

[AZman5103]

3 TDs on 12 catches. With that production if we get him 100 catches he will have 25TDs.

I like it.

This is the kid that was on Seattle a few years ago and the announcers kept telling us the Seahawks loved him, good after the catch etc. Then Seattle let him walk as a FA.

he's got some interesting elements he's got 29 career catches 4 of them for TD's. If we're signing him to compete for the #2 yes that's not smart, if we're signing him for depth he's somewhat interesting

Looking at his wiki page apparently good on special teams which you look for in WR depth. That was one of the issues I always had with Isabella, he didn't really do anything on ST which is why he was inactive so often.

This kid is not fast and has had some leg injuries but might be worth a look

 

[Austin Zonie]

Why only 100 catches? Put him down for 200 catches and 50 TDs and now we're talking.

This all sucks, because this is hardly depth. Hernandez, Turner, this is the Cardinals filling out their roster so they 'will not have to worry about drafting for need' in their words because these guys can be 'staters', when they actually will be drafting on need thinking their 'exciting' selections will not let it come to that. Of course, they will then be rookies, which will get minimal play with this coaching staff, and the Turners and Hernandezs of the roster will be the Cardinals answer to these current roster holes. This is how Keim talks, and this is how Keim approaches his roster, when he no longer has to worry about his own contract... at least on paper

 

[DaHilg]

Phew !!! Thought we weren’t going to improve the team at all… should be good now!

 

[CardsFan88]

Compete with Isabella for back of the roster WR who might dress because of special teams

 

[Harry]

Frankly not much to recommend him. He’s slow. He’s played about half the time in the slot but he’s no big YAC threat. Best that can be said is he’s okay in the red zone and he doesn’t drop many passes.

 

[Realist Cards Fan]

I think Terrell Owens wants to play still.....

Well the good news is that he will be very cheap. No big buck contract.

Almost everyone > Malik Turner

also

Malik Turner > Antoine Wesley

Obviously this is a camp body with upside. Plays special teams. Has been stuck behind a deep Cowboys WR depth chart but they thought he was good enough to make the roster.

Smart move IMO if they sign him.

He's better than Wesley and Wesley also doesn't play ST's.

I would not go out to say he's better than Wesley, because I believe this was the first time Wesley was able to contribute any significant play to actually progress. Not saying Wesley is a starter but I would hardly say Turner is better than him yet... hence, we still need a starter at the 1 or 2 position with not only height but speed to be legit

Wesley, and I can't emphasize this enough, is complete garbage. The only thing he has going for him is being 6'4" with 34" arms. At best he's an EZ jumpball specialist only, which was where he had all his success last year.

Of all the roster construction criticism Keim has been getting the least talked about but most egregious was Wesley being our only depth at outside receiver. Playing 80% of snaps down the stretch with Nuk out he averaged less than 24 yards per game and never topped 30. He was, in my opinion, a major contributor to that horrible run in.

After never making a 53 in 2 years it was a travesty he was so high on our depth chart and complete homerism by Kliff. I believe he would have been out of the league had Kliff not thrown him a bone.

Malik Turner, while not having may opportunities, can at least do this.
