Sorry but Meyers is behind Dorsett in the appreciation thread line.

I hope they both maximize their opportunities, step up, and have a decent season.

We'll all appreciate it if Jakobi Meyers doesn't suck.

He’s on the roster.....he’s awesome

The kid has shown serious potential. Typical patriot under the radar type. Poor "athletic measurables," but production out the wazoo. While he flashed at points during PS, he also showed exactly how raw he was on a few plays with Tf'inB. I remember him stopping/giving up on a seam route that if he had ran out would have been a good chance for a chunk play. Tf'inB seemed to immediately go into teacher mode and continued to target him rather than chew him out and ice his ass. He may not be as forgiving now that the games count, but I'll happily throw on my homer glasses and call it a good thing (yes i realize nobody was on the roster at that point, shhhh).

Meyer's gonna leave us asking "Antonio Who?"

Just kidding, he will probably end up in a murder investigation

I hope that these two are useful in the future. I see no reason to say that they "are the future".

Personally, my hope is that Edelman, Gordon and Dorsett are here for a couple of more years.

N'Keal and Jakobi are the future and I think we get a glimpse of that by seasons end.

Here's hoping that this thread gets a bump upstairs around 4:00 today...

I would like a Jakob and Jacobi lay down the law headline.

Thank you Jakobi Meyers for not being a total douche who rapes women, has naked conversation with his employees, and send people threatening text messages!

Be careful saying “he rapes women”. That’s actually a false statement at this point

One of my pet peeves is people that repeat non-truths. One example is that people are still saying “Robert Kraft” along with the phrase “human trafficking”. That never happened and was never a true statement. There never was an on going investigation into HT in the Kraft case

Watch Jakobi have a big game today!!!!

Can you imagine the NFL reaction to THAT????

I am definitely a Meyers fan. he has a lot of potential. Could be a solid receiver for us. He reminds me of someone, but not sure who? Maybe Givens? But yes, too early for that probably.

This is what will be the undoing of #MeToo. No due process, just mass victimization and division based on nothing but sex. DNC divisiveness at its finest.

I feel the same way. I don't think he will be an all pro but I believe he has the chops to turn into a reliable WR for us and be a part of the team for years to come.

Thankfully, it seems like we're way past that. The kid is catching everything TB throws to him and is getting better every week. He may be out of the rotation with Sanu and Harry, but he's done everything they've asked and exceeded every reasonable expectation.

I gave him props last night (post-game thread), and I think he's going to stay in the mix moving forward.

He's still got a long ways to go, but he's making the catches when the ball's thrown his way, and that's a great start.

Meyer's has quite a head start on Harry as far as being able to contribute any time soon. Meyer's repetitions and consistency is going to win out for a while.

He reminds me of Brandon Lloyd. He’s not a speedster, but he has great body control and is acrobatic when making catches.

I was impressed - hope he keeps it up...

I'm excited about Myers as our fourth receiver (the guy is an acrobat) but not as excited as Dorsett as our third receiver. His game has evolved and opened up. Dude catches everything. MLE mostly underneath routes, but then surprises with go routes. It works because of his elite speed.

Dorsett has been good. But fwiw Myers has easily the highest yards per target of any WR on the team, despite working mostly underneath. Because Myers really has caught everything.
