The fact is this guy is probably going to lose the 4th WR spot to Gilmore. Now with the talk of Welker playing so well in training camp then we have a KR who would be a very capable 5th WR. IMO that leaves no room for Darrius. From what I remember this guy hasn't restructured his contract. If he is cut it will save us just over 1 million in cap space. I can't see him being around before the season starts if he isn't even going to be starting and taking up that much cap.
 
He might have some trade value...

I would at least see if he has some trade value. Even if it means getting a fringe player from another team in an area of need (ie. cb; s).

I don't see him making the team this season, he's really hurting himself by not practicing. There's a few fans here that think he should make the team. How many more dropped passes do they need to see?

Well... we dont need the cap space right now. We are under the cap... if we needed the room, then DT should worry...

I'll call him by his real name when he stops dropping easy balls. Until then he is known as Darrius. ;)

I know we don't "need" cap space right now, but cap room is never a bad thing to have.

i think hes got trade value and philly is desparate for a WR pretty much i think we could use that to our adantage if we showcased him a bit in a pre season game

It's Derrius Dropson. :D
 
I agree, with the TO situation getting uglier in PHI, maybe they would be interested in a deal in a couple of weeks. Even if its for CB or OL depth, better than getting nothing at all.
 
Does anyone else think that Derrius Thompson is just the playing version of Derrius Rucker (Hootie) cause they can't seem to catch passes in a Phins uni?
