Kevin Curtis, Mormon & Philadelphia Eagle

[Magical_Retard]

any predictions on how well he will do?

i say around 40-50 receptions with about 6 TDs.

[Sgt PSN]

16 catches, 1584 yds, 16 td, 99 ypc. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

16 catches, 1584 yds, 16 td, 99 ypc. 

I was thinking more like 1584 catches for 16 yards.

WEST COAST OFFENSE!

No one is going to say that Curtis is better than Stallworth, but IMO he is close. Have you ever seen the guy play or are you just ripping the signing for the sake of it. I'd rather have Stallworth, and am still a little annoyed that he isn't back, but we aren't losing Chad Johnson here. Donte Stallworth is NOT a stud #1 WR. He drops balls, he isn't durable.

I think Reid just said Curtis is a more precise route runner. I can't remember for sure but I think he said that referring to all the receivers last year.

curtis is basically greg lewis...perhaps a little better but not much

[The BIGSTUD]

You should actually watch him play once before making that assumption.

They're moving him to RB?

not really...in mike martz fun and gun behind two hall of famers his numbers werent astronomically better than lewis' have been...lets see what curtis does now as the supposed #1 or 2 guy in reids offense

like i said hes probably better but not by a ton

[Eaglez]

If he's only better than Greg Lewis by "not by much", then this was a horrible signing.

Greg Lewis: (2004-2006)

17 Receptions, 183 Yards, 0 TD

48 Receptions, 561 Yards, 1 TD

24 Receptions, 348 Yards, 2 TDs

Kevin Curtis (2004-2006)

32 Receptions, 421 Yards, 2 TDs

60 Receptions, 801 Yards, 6 TDs

40 Receptions, 479, 4 TDs

------

He definitely scores more, and he's more of a deep threat. Curtis can probably put up similar numbers in this offense that he put up in his 2nd year with the Rams. And I'm find with that. Maybe even a couple of more TDs and a few more receptions. WRs don't get a ton of balls in this offense, so I'll be happy with that. But, who knows, maybe the offense will be more WR-centered this year and Curtis blows up like another unknown white-boy (i.e. Furrey), but probably not.

I just don't think the WRs are going to make or break this team. Right now they are fine. I'm not all for wasting another draft pick on a WR when the Eagles probably have their 4 deep for this year (Brown, Curtis, Baskett, Avant). Barring some injury, that's the group. This team still needs LB and secondary depth. Focus on that.

[ice grillin you]

he scores more and gets more receptions because the martz offense is all about going down field...plus he could run wild vs the other teams secondary with all the attention being on bruce and holt

lets just say curtis is closer to greg lewis than he is donte stallworth

No, let's not.
