Maybe BB, but McNeal I don't see happenning

Bennie yes, Reggie no. If Bennie Brazell is healthy I believe he should get a shot at making the team again because it has been injuries, not a lack of talent, that has kept him from playing. I saw Bennie at training camp and I was so impressed with his work ethic, his ability to learn and adapt, and most of all with his speed. I've never seen anything with less than four legs run that fast! With Bennie's speed and hurdling experience from track, he could get some serious separation from defensive backs as well as rack up impressive "yards after catch" numbers.

No one on the team ran a better "9" route than Bennie Brazell and that's not my assessment, it's Carson Palmer's.

I would definitely look at bringing Brazell back, if for nothing else, he would be the fasted guy on the team, and stretch the field running fly patterns all the time....someone on the defense would have to account for his sub 4.3 speed running down the field!!?

Certainly we'll give Benny a chance but there's just no way he can pull himself up to the 53 man IMO. Injuries will always be a concern and for that reason he probably has little special teams value. We already have a handful of guys of that ilk eating up roster spots. TJ Chatman Gabriel Holt and Draftee have the inside track to making the roster. Chad has to be traded for anyone other than a 2nd draft pick to make it.

I am not so sure BB couldn't beat Gabriel out of the spot. Speed will get you a long way in the NFL and when you have Palmers arm you need to find ways to utilize it. I think we must find a WR who can get down the field in the hurry comparable to C. Henry and if we do the offense will be fine. Great QBs make decent WRs look good. WIth BB's speed he could,could, make a positive impact.

Sadly, i wanted badly to see mcneal make the team and make an impact for trick plays. Unfortunately he seems to be ready to be cut by the preseason, or back on the practice squad. Bennie brazell is very fast, has decent hands and can jump well, but he is grossly undersized as an NFL receiver, if I remember correctly he is about 15 lbs too light (if not more) and kinda short.

BB is the one I want to keep
Mcneal wantedd to play QB I think which is pretty stupid for him but he also doesn't have much talent

[Magikod]

Depends on how many WR's we go with in the draft.
