he runs a slant like Fred Biletnikoff

Too early to declare Baskett a sure-fire HOF'er?

Just saw him yucking it up on the sidelines with McNabb.

It says something, IMO, that he was playing with the starters.  It says something even more that they pulled him along with the rest of the starters instead of leaving him out there.

(But that is incredibly accurate, I'm at least glad someone is stepping up.  Even if it's this guy.)

I think Reid was really trying to boost this kids confidence by taking him out. Hopefully it works.

It was good and bad like someone said here earlier, but regardless if Reid thinks hes going to be a starter for the season, he needs game time reps more so than the next guy to take it to another level (more than Brown and Gaffney because they already are proven starters-"proven" being the word here)

One drive in my opinion was not an, "Im sold" kind of drive, but I guess to Reid it was

I don't think Reid's "sold", necessarily, but with 4 more pre-season games to go, he saw a good opportunity to get the starters out of there on a positive note and work the backups (who obviously need it) more.

Undrafted free agents, late round picks, mid-season free agent cuts, skiiers and castoffs.

But everything's cool. Nothing to worry about here.

Because 1st round picks always are studs, right?

Speaking of which, I saw Freddie is trying out with the Cowboys.

At his own request, not theirs.  It's nothing.

So for those of you that actually got to see him play again tonight is he as good as the hype? How much did he actually play?

He made an excellent catch on a deep sideline ("go" route) pattern.  The ball was perfectly thrown and he caught it just as he should have.  He also had another slant pattern go for six or seven yards.

He looked good in the short amount of time he played.

Brown, Baskett, and McNabb were talking amonst themselves on the sideline for most of the 3rd quarter. Can't wait to get my Baskett jersey.

He caught the first pass of the game and fumbled, but got it back. But the deep catch was very nice.
