Seriously though, I agree with you that I did see him open all the time. I don't question his skills, I just question his emotional and physical strength.

Something to the effect of "You're NOT a starter? Why not?". I think it has something to do with his ego. He's probably a lot like the second tier athlete that has the physical skills and really stands out against weaker competition. Now that he's on a level playing ground it's like he has some mental block. He's spent most of his life being told how awesome he is now that he has to step it up a notch to prove it he breaks down. TheMalcolmConnection 04-13-2006, 11:41 AM Speaking of Patten, for some reason I really see him being our Monk or Ellard this year. If we run any 4 WR sets, I can see him being the go-to guy. Beemnseven 04-13-2006, 11:54 AM I think Patten is a great insurance policy. But since I don't think we'll see too many 4 wideout sets, Patten is going to have to really prove that he's clearly better than either Randle El or Brandon Lloyd. 724Skinsfan 04-13-2006, 12:09 PM I still don'telieve Randle El will be used as a WR consistently. Special teams and special plays (HB option pass?) mainly. Lloyd is the number 2 with Randle El and Patten splitting the number 3 spot.

Lloyd is the number 2 with Randle El and Patten splitting the number 3 spot. If so, he'd be the highest paid special teams/gimmick player in NFL history by about $30 mill. MTK 04-13-2006, 12:19 PM I see Randle El and Lloyd battling it out for the #2 in camp. Regardless of who is labeled the #2, both are likely to see plenty of action in Saunder's 3 WR sets. Beemnseven 04-13-2006, 12:25 PM With all these wideouts, anybody else think there could be friction at some point between receivers all wanting the ball and a head coach who loves to run it? I haven't really heard if Saunders is a run first or throw first kind of guy. 724Skinsfan 04-13-2006, 12:26 PM If so, he'd be the highest paid special teams/gimmick player in NFL history by about $30 mill. True, very true but he'd also be one of the highest paid #2/#3 wideouts. backrow 04-13-2006, 12:41 PM True, very true but he'd also be one of the highest paid #2/#3 wideouts. I guess you didn't hear about the money tree that LDS has growing at Fedex Field! He has his Cash Cow stashed in a pasture at Redskins Park! |
