I'm more down on Egnew now than after preseason. In August at least he made a couple of plays. We used him over the middle. Didn't look totally out of place athletically, even if he had some drops. Heck, we got rid of Donald Lee for a few drops and he went on to have a nice career including one nice contract and one nice ring. That was one of my early battles on Finheaven, supporting Donald Lee in the face of near unanimous calls for his dismissal.
Egnew looked abysmal in the final two regular season games. That's the troubling aspect. Months to improve and if anything he seemed worse. We didn't even have confidence to use him like a standard tight end. I attended the Buffalo game and saw Egnew dash onto the field, the crowd rejoicing. We split Egnew far left in a decoy role and he was so slow and lumbering off the line that the defender marking him turned his head as if to see if he should vacate and help out elsewhere. Egnew wasn't a threat. Defending Egnew, at least out there, required no more than half speed or attention.
During the Patriots game you could see the woeful frame. I think I described it as strangely placed cavities. My point of reference was Egnew's upper body. Luckily I never bothered to check lower, the hip area that Kim Bokamper ridiculed.
What was the selling point, actually, if Egnew has poor feet, hips, torso and a pouty face? Maybe Missouri for due for a tight end to connect. I keep reading that Missouri tight ends always flop. I guess I'm one of the few posters old enough to remember the original Kellen Winslow's school.
He sounds like a dip head. Lamar Miller isn't exactly Mensa himself, as a Canes fan pointed out in another thread I sampled recently. Tannehill doesn't know if the Chiefs are in the NFC East or the NHL. I don't get it. Seems like you're unnecessarily regulating your own upside. I keep looking at this roster and wondering what the high water mark could possibly be? Joe Thomas, now he could draft. I was in elementary school and had no idea it wouldn't always be that way. Guys like Dick Anderson, Bill Stanfill, Larry Csonka, Mercury Morris, Jake Scott, they would show up and from the first press interview it stood out how sharp they were. Now I watch those guys get drafted elsewhere. One of the reasons I've supported Reggie Bush is I've long known how well spoken, passionate and team oriented he is, even if he was a bit too family oriented at my school USC, causing a bit of trouble with the NCAA, or so I'm told.
