Troy Williamson?

What do we do with this guy?

I want to keep him, only because he was a high draft pick.

Didn't we have another WR (Hassan Jones) that suffered from the dropsies and didn't he go to a hypnotist to improve. And didn't it work? I know Jones never was a great WR but I do beleive he did start holding onto the ball and would make some fantastic catches. Maybe the hypnotist thing was just a urband legend I heard??

What do you think? Keep him or dump him?

Obvisiously, he doesn't have much trade value at this point and he is a 1st round pick so that seems out of the question.

Let me know your thoughts

Just another Underwood! That's why I would rather have a free agent then a draft pick any day. With a free agent you most likely know what you're going to get. A draft pick may be good in college but you never truely know what you're gong to get in the NFL.

I'd say keep him another year, and see if the rookie jitters are now gone. He was able to get himself open sporadically, and just needs to concentrate more on the ball as it's approaching. Not sure if he is a little gun-shy about getting hit pretty hard, but that MIGHT explain why some balls were dropped.

I'd give it another year to see if he develops more. If anything, we could always get him to dip his hands in pine tar :-)

Keep him one more year and send him to chris carter to learn how to catch.

Package him up and trade him off, cut your loss. He had a year to learn how to catch last season. Carters camp will make you better but if you can't catch to start with. Running routes to make them look pretty and then drop the ball when it gets there is no improvement. Can you tell I am no fan of Williamson.. smirk.gif

jake reed had problems catching the ball also and was diagnosed with some sort of vision problem then was able to get that adjusted and was able to perform better.I agree keep butterfingers williamson and see if he has overcome the droppsies after all its not like we got a boat load of talent at reciever i noticed joe horn was released by the saints whats your take on picking him up he is a veteran reciever who we sure could use but the downsides are his best years behind him and he has had a handful of onfield and off field antics dont think childress would deal with that he also would come at a price.

Has posted earlier Horn is ready for the Old FOlks Home. How about Dante Stallworth instead? Drew Bennett? I would rather hve both of these then the reported Ted Ginn Jr. who they have sellected the Viks take with their first pick.

You have more too gain by keeping him around and seeing if he can overcome his problems. Its his 3rd year and cutting him wouldnt save any cap room. He had a solid start too last season and the drop in the last drive of the bears game sent him spriralling downward. I have a bad feeling hes just plain a bust but you have too keep him around this year.

Drew Bennett signed with St.Louis. Kevin Curtis was in town but who knows where that will go.

Starter to the inactive roster...

A Corvette is fast, but it's not on any football team.

A giraffe is tall, but it's not on any football team.

Let the boy go.

We do not need another doped up wide reciever. Stallworth is one strike away from a big suspension. Besides, he is injury prone and highly over rated.

I didnt catch the hole story on KFAN this morning, but they were talking about Troy and his catching problems. Seems chili and other coaches, from watching films figure his problem has something to do with his helmet confused.gif So if they get him a new helmet, he should be on this way to the pro bowl next year grin.gifgrin.gifgrin.gif

Yep. It's true. Alot of fisherpeople aren't very good in the open water months because of the tiller-handle on their outboard. It's throwing off their concentration.

His helmet is bobbling around out there thus scurring his vision. 2 sizes smaller, a little lighter meshing on the facemask, and less padding and he'll be 1,500 yards +.

Millions of dollars of video equiptment finally pays off to find that Troy has been wearing Matt Birk's helmet this whole time. Birk never noticed the first year cuz he was out for hernia surgery.

Micheal Bennett had problems getting past the line of scrimmage because he was wearing Gary Anderson's old jock strap.

Ain't that a shame.

On second thought, maybe Troy should just skip the helmet all together??? confused.gifconfused.gif

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
