I really wasn't expecting to come away from a preseason game thinking I'd be re-evaluating my thoughts on the WR group... but.. McCutcheon.
I mean... he looked like a starter playing against backups. Big target, long arms, hand catcher who attacks the ball.. strong and fast enough. What the hell??? Lol... I mean... I like the way he goes after the ball a lot better than Van... and Stafford loves guys who can attack the ball. He looked good enough that I think, if he can be a big contributor on teams, that he could be in a fight for the 5th or 6th WR spot.
So, that was a big surprise for me and a real pleasant one.
So, Bruss... looks like he has a lot of work to do.
Alaric Jackson had at least one bad rep.. but showed well, otherwise.. and looks intriguing on the inside at guard.
Arcuri looks like a rookie.. but I don't think he was bad.
Anchrum looked good to me at left guard, am I alone on that? He seemed solid.
Hardy showed some flashes of real ability.. he's definitely small.. but explosive.
Whitley looks like he might be able to play.
Bobby Brown flashed and showed some effort. Hopefully ankle is minor.. he's got plenty of time to heal, anyway. I think he's a guy that will make an impact at some point.
Kendrick looks like a baller.. Durant looks small.
Oh.. Burgess... Well... he looks like he's in danger of getting cut.
Perkins is a fun preseason guy who absolutely, 100% does not have an NFL arm. Nope. I know he's fun, but there's a reason Wolford isn't taking a snap in the preseason... he's WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY ahead of Perkins, and it's not even close.
And Perkins lack of arm strength and inability to run the regular offense is another reason we won't see Tutu out there.. there's nothing to learn about Tutu in that offense and nothing to gain if you've seen him make it happen in practices.
