I am personally on the Jayson Foster bandwagon rooting for the guy. He sold me with his you tube videos. Did any one see him in practice or hear anything about him?
 
I tell you what. In the videos I saw, #14 looked awful sharp...and fast as hell. If that man develops some sticky hands, he's got a shot. I know there's a lot of love for Davone Bess right now, but I want to see a lot more before I heap it on him. I mean, I loved the guy back in school. But, when I watch the field, #14 looks quick as hell and crispy. Davone Bess looks solid. We'll see.

Ted Ginn's hands are smooth as ever. I don't think he'll ever make circus catches but the dude makes hands catches look routine. Fast, too.
 
How can you not root for a guy like Foster? He's 5'7" 175 and played at a small college. It would really be something to see him beat the long odds. He certainly has the speed and quickness
 
Take a look at this video from camp:

It looks like the video is playing at normal speed when the other recievers are doing drills, then all of a sudden at around the 2:35 mark it looks like the video goes into fast forward mode. Guess who it is? Man, Foster is SOOOO exciting to watch. I am with you, he is the player I am rooting for most this year!

PS: in case the link doesnt load directly, it is the video called Training camp PM practice highlights

I haven't seem Ginn live (Houston this year) but he looks like he needs 3 strides to get going. Fast not quick. CK your take?

I love Foster's speed and what I have heard of him here. Good luck to Bess too!

Jayson Foster and Ted Ginn are both speedsters. #11 was looking pretty quick towards the end and I gotta say I had no idea Ernest Wilford was that big, he dwarfs the other receivers. Btw, did anyone see Derek Hagan trip towards the end?! XD Atleast he didnt drop the ball.. the camera didnt really show him falling but it showed his cleet like stuck in the turf/grass (whatever we have).
 
I just watched his youtube highlights! Holy crap. Maybe with this guy can replace TG so he concentrates more on WR. Again this guy looks awesome (On tape in college) I know it's not the NFL, but I think he's got as much potential as Sproles (SP) for the chargers coming in at least at WR and return man! Boy I really do hope he makes it as well!!
 
just watched the highlights myself. foster definitely looks some kind of quick and he comes back to the ball unlike some wrs. routes look pretty good also. for a converted qb and jack of all trades he looks pretty polished to me at wr.

it's just one day but if he keeps looking like that i'd keep ginn, hagan, wilford, bess and foster and release camarillo and/or kircus.

i don't see any way we can store that guy on the practice squad if other teams start seeing tape of him and he keeps looking like that.

i was impressed. bess is a keeper also in my book at this stage.

the fact that foster and bess can/will both play specials as returners gives them the edge to me.
 
he looks like a Ginn clone.... not only a world class athlete but a heck of a football player plain and simple. I'm hoping we atleast keep him on PS.
 
looks to me like foster already runs better routes than ginn. ginn likes to round off a lot. needs to come back to the ball more also.

ginn has wonderful hands though. much better than i thought coming out of college.
 
I watched Foster yesterday at the 5 pm session. He looks really good. Caught everything but the double team drills. Runs sharp, quick routes. Obviously very quick.

Ginn did appear to round out his routes, but I don't care. He looks leagues above the other receivers out there.

Wilford is enormous.

Bess has his own flavor. Looks to be solid.

It was Ginn and then everyone else.
 
Quick, fast little guy..... Maybe he's this year's Lo. Booker... Let's hope he can get on the field....
