Not every player the Pats sign is gold. CAMP FODDER! He will be one of the first to get cut.

I'm sold! I didn't even know about the dreads.
Of course, a lot hinges on what number he's assigned. |

I'm already sold on his name, too.
Keron! There's a winner. Watch. End of Training camp. He'll be there. You heard it here first. |

Seriously now, guys.
My first yawn was like Pats1's. But Stan finds that he is a former quarterback. Former QBs who are good enough athletes to make it at another position (classically, WR) ... are always interesting phenomena and should be able to digest the playbook in good time. Could be a Belichick player.

Trying to learn something new every day

I am a UConn alumni and season ticket holder. I watched him play all four years at UConn. He was a run-first, pass-second qb when he came to UConn. His athleticism wowed people but he was not a great qb. He threw a tight ball but was not terribly accurate.
After switching to wr, he showed flashes but was never the threat he should have been. I firmly believe that if he had more than two years at wr, he would have been a lot better. You could see that he was inexperienced at wr as he was very mechanical when running routes and catching the ball. This cleared up a bit during his second year as a wr. One thing that you always noticed was his speed and athleticism once he had the ball. He could outrun many players once he had the ball. I remember one play vs Rutgers (I think) when he made an amazing catch and had a very impressive run (including juking one player and then hurdling another) to win the game in the waning moments. He may only be camp fodder (I expect it to be this way), but he is athletic and is still learning the position. Who knows what happens down the road. I wish him a ton of luck.
