There are roughly 100 players occupying those roles. If anything, I'm underestimating how bad he his.
This is his third year in the NFL and he has 17 catches. Seventeen. He averages less than ten yards per catch. There is nothing about him that is noteworthy. He's end-of-the-roster ST trash, at best.

My thoughts on Junior haven't changed since he was drafted and I told everyone he'd be on this team. In pre-season again, everyone was calling for him being cut, I said it wouldn't happen, it didn't.
He's a physical guy with a big body, total red zone threat type of guy on paper. His 1 drop this year was pretty bad, but he's been shining pretty well throughout the year, especially so on run blocking and special teams, serious emphasis on the special teams. Short of Phillip Gaines playing like a pro bowl cover guy, Junior would be getting some big rants and raves about his cover skills. He's just not "Overly" talented, he's the type of guy who is going to put up a 40 for 550 statline once he gets a grip of the offense. He'll never be a #1 or a #2, but he's certainly a #3/#4 guy that will perform very well on special teams to keep his roster spot, and its guys like that who have a tendency to make plays when we need them the most. |

I disagree. Dex was good in the slot for reasons we didn't expect and reasons Tennessee is too dumb to notice. Dex would be doing really well in this new offense. Not because of speed. As a hands or possession receiver. Why Tennessee put him back in the gadget role, who the **** knows.
I agree with general consensus here. Hemingway is a phenomenal special teamer, very good blocker, and occasional pass catcher. He is basically the new terrence copper. |

With Avery out for a while he'll get some more looks?

I doubt he is even in the NFL next year.

Why are people still talking about Junior? Definition of "nobody".

No one is claiming a conspiracy. I am however claiming (and have shown if you bothered reading or watching tape yourself) that the snaps he is in on are overwhelmingly ones where he is not even a potential target. The few times he IS asked to run a route and get open .. he overwhelmingly does. So, anyone claiming he doesn't get open is simply wrong and making shit up. Want to add to the discussion? Why don't you actually look at the plays he is in on and come back with an analysis... instead of simply acting like you know what you are talking about. |

In theory he shouldn't because that isn't a spot he would ever fill in any circumstance, but who knows. My guess is that Jenkins gets a bunch of those looks. He's much more Avery-esque (even down to the inability to hold on to balls)

he is what he is he's awesome but for some reason our team refuses to acknowledge it i don't have to 'analyze' reality...he's overachieved by even being on an nfl roster this long, and good for him
