The kid has shown that he can get open, the problem is that he does not catch the ball. He has make some big catches, but has dropped more. With the addition of Lowber, if he can be that speed guy to stretch the defense, then troy becomes expendable. however word out of camp is that lowber might have the same case of the dropsies. time will tell.

Schefter has already noted that Williamson makes too much money to get cut; but he may not be a starter if the other draft choices and/or Lowber show more promise. I suspect he will be on the side lines or perhaps a third receiver behind Rice, Allison and/ or Wade.

However it may not matter too much as we may see a lot of two TE sets to help the running game. Very predictable and easy to stop but about what you would expect from Childress and a raw QB.

I think he'll have a mental block.
60,000+ fans all expecting him to drop the ball..........and he will.

Stick a fork in him,he's done.

Him and TJ can go somewhere else and bomb together.
With any luck Avant will follow their smell.

Well, childress has apparantly fixed williamson's depth perception problems with eye exercises. now he won't have the black spots that lead to so many drops last year. For those of you not laughing, please contact me about some great business opportunities.

Last year he looked like a superstar & chilly said he'd solved williamson's eye problems. Had a whole debate during last year's camps where 98% of you guys told me i was stupid when i mentioned he can't catch & has eye problems. i compared his eye problems to buster rhymes. The really stupid people out there said the rapper never played nfl football.
