Tryouts today?

The_Taxman : 10/13/2015 3:43 pm
Anyone have any word if we brought in some guys for tryouts. I'd like to see us continue to bring in TEs & WRs. Depth is needed at both positions. I'm shocked Welker hasn't been signed yet.
Welker is not signing with us

And I was encouraged by the play of Harris, Davis and Tye on Sunday night. The only question mark was White, who deserves another game or two before he's run out of town.
Agree on Geremy Davis

Think was a real good sixth round pick. And I think Tye will be around for a long time..
You're 'shocked'? Why?

They had Welker in for one workout, Tom's response on the results were lukewarm at best and the local media ran with it like it was a foregone conclusion.
They signed a WR from the workout

to the practice squad. If Welker was going to be signed they probably would have done it instead of adding White to the roster. Get over it. Welker ain't happening.
TC and his staff (a talented . veteran good one)

think Welker is niot the answer, Deal with it. Stop the armchair nonsense.
Welker may not be the answer,  
RollBlue : 10/13/2015 6:27 pm : link
but they may need to sign someone if OBJ and Randle's hammys are still iffy tomorrow.
The workout is tomorrow  
Anakim : 10/13/2015 6:34 pm : link
And will reportedly be heavily WR-based
Thanks Anakim

Would expect WR and LB as well.
We need to look for sure  
JOrthman : 10/13/2015 9:44 pm : link
We can't go into a game with our 4th and 5th guys getting sigfnicant time especially since these guys aren't exactl world beaters.

If we sign guys off the street wouldn't that be our 6th and 7th guys? That's worse, even, than our 4th and 5th I think.
Tomorrow's Weds - with a game on Monday  
jcn56 : 10/13/2015 10:50 pm : link
how likely would anyone we sign at WR really see the field against Philly? Like it or not, the bottom of the roster guys might be getting some play on Monday.

I hate to keep harping on the Welker thing but even at 34 and losing a step, Welker is better than our bottom 3 WRs by a mile and would be a better option than anyone we try out tomorrow. Welker had over 40 receptions and 400 yards last year as a #4 receiving option and after losing a step. Harris,Davis and White couldn't give you that combined.
