I hope he shows something this year, still could make that 2nd round passable. Plus, him, Hankerson, Moss, Armstrong if they all turn it up, we could actually have a legit receiving CORPS. That would be the first time in a long time.

For once this is a good off-season thing. It looks like we have the most players showing up so thats a great sign. I mean we have more players then Dallas, Phil, and the Giants combined. Not sure how that will translate into actual play on the field but it can only help.

I hold nothing against any player not attending...These "workouts" are a circus IMO. Nothing is being accomplished outside of maybe a little team bonding, but they can bond by going to the dinner or any other activity together also. These practices are a publicity stunt across the league to try and get the public on their side. The same way Roger Goodell's phone calls to season ticket holders are an attempt to gain public sentiment for the owners side.

I agree the workouts aren't all that helpful without coaches there, but I'm not sure it's just a PR move. I think players are genuinely eager to get back to work and these workouts are at least helping to get playbooks out to the rooks and getting them into the fold.

Maybe...I am not really down on individual players...just their leadership. Many of them may have a genuine interest in getting back to work but that doesn't make these workouts productive. I do agree though that getting the playbooks to rookies is big...provided that they are able to understand it without having coaches install it in practice. I guess any bit of familiarity they gain from flipping through it has to help somewhat though...

Well to be fair, players need to be more conservative with their money at this time, and part of that might be not spending a $1,000 on a plane ticket to go to an unofficial workout.

I feel like Kyle from South Park.... "Your joking right?" "Tell me your joking."

I definitely don't want any Skins associated with VY. I don't want there to be any reason for any Skin to be lobbying for him or putting ideas in the coaching staffs head. Also hoping the idea is not already there.

"Concentration Drill"..Hankerson

If anyone is worried about him dropping balls, take a look at this. Obviously, it does not guarantee success, but it's great when athletes show transparency in their workouts.

Man, I'm so proud of these guys. Very impressive turnout...bit disappointed Orakpo, Landry, and Williams didn't show up.
