I had always hoped that he would make the Vikes regular squad:

I second that Cajun... He is a decent size.. 6'2 200lbs.. He is also born and raised in Minnesota.. To bad it didn't work out for him with the Vikes..

He didn't have the hands.
I am surprised the Redskins got him and put him on the practice squad.
Gibbs must see something.

Do you have stats to back that up?

I know he improved his speed to impress the coaching staff in the offseason;

To be an NFL receiver, or to be a receiver on this team?

To be an NFL Receiver.
Maybe he is ok for college ball, arena football, or flag but lets not get away from the real reason.
He doesn't have the NFL talent.

I know some are into him because he is a hometown kid but in the NFL he is just a little below average.
