FWIW a great catch doesn't make a bad throw any better. I removed the goggles after game one and didn't see anything to write home about- as far his passing skills... Like I said he's fourth string here, but maybe not elsewhere. His read options were nothing that dazzled me, particularly with who was suppose to stop him. Had he tore off a 70 yarder I'd give him more praise... I just really don't think he did anything that the average Joe blow ps qb couldn't do.
It's what ever really, our first three qbs will ensure he isn't needed which is music to my ears! When's the last time we had depth at the most important position??

Pierre

Moss
Hank
Aldrick
Lewis

If not picked up by another team, Skye Dawson probably makes the PS. I really do think that they intend to use Paul to return kickoffs which is just weird b/c he's so damn big (6'1, 233).
Since we are likely keeping 4 Tight Ends, it would be tough to keep 6 wide receivers.
True but by no means undoable. In 2012 we had 3 and 7. In 2011 we had 3 and 9 including Sellers at TE/RB.

To me if a guy is excelling with a certain group he should be promoted.

I think what you want to see is if he's accurate/quick and making the right decisions. For the most part Pat White playing with the 3rd team offense with 3rd team defense has played well.
Don't try to over analyze my post or put words in my.mouth. he is a fourth stringer here fora reason... Elsewhere different story. Hopefully we stash him on the PS, but the fact is I'd rather have Sky Dawson (someone who would actually dress up and see the field) over Pat never playing. As for the third steamers he's also had some help from Paulson and Helu to help bolster the "look" of his play. He's decent, not great, and that's why he is where he is. His passing skills leave a LOT to be desired hence the 4th string title.
Well my reply was mostly in general cause I hear it often...but you did prompt me to think about it. My point is if he is a 4th stringer and excelling with the 4th string competition then he should get a shot at 3rd string and so on until he no longer excels. That is all I'm saying. Helu and Paulson? If your talking about Paulson's one hand catch then it isnt' a good example because thats his job to catch the ball. Helu's td run was great and props to him but also Pat White's two successful read option runs prior helped set that up for Helu to have more spacing in the middle for that run.

I'm just going by what my OWN eyes see and not what reporters have been bashing him about during training camp. Considering he's in his first year with this offense and with a great group of coaches would like to see us keep him some how and add to his development. I definitely would keep Skye Dawson over him as well. White probably isnt' eligible for the practice squad.
Rex & White will get all the reps the next 2 games. White should get plenty ov reps against at least 2nd stringers.

I believe that Brandon Jenkins is the result of the trade we made to the patriots of Haynesworth (you remember, when the media (particularly Wilbon who isn't a hypocrite at all) blasted Bill for taking giving up a 5th round pick for a guy that was awful, unmotivated and done, the same way they gave Mike crap for treating him like an awful, unmotivated and done bum) :roll: when we got rid of his sorry behind.
I know he got a pretty good zip on the ball. He has a quick release. . . once I seen a coupla' throws, I was just like 'Yeah, he's that dude.'"
