Who was a Pre-Season stud...or Backup that you thought would be a star..and never was
Some of the one's I remember:
Zamir Cobb - on a couple message boards that I am a member of, people were penciling him as the #3 receiver with his great hands, speed, etc. There were debates and numerous threads about this guy. He had a couple of nice preseason games and got hurt. Tried to come back the next year and was cut. But, I remember the heated debates that were about this guy. Donte Brown - a RB that had some really nice long runs in preseason several years ago. For 2 years, he made us think he was the the "Willie Parker" before there ever was a Willie Parker. Ended up being signed by the Bills and never made it very far. Jason Capizzi - I know he is still around, but one more decent preseason and he could enter into this status. |

I thought that Cobb was going to make a great name for himself.. until he got hurt.
Sad. |

Tee Martin was a college standout. He did what Peyton couldn't do (beat Florida & won the title game) and was never given an appropriate chance to shine in the NFL. Crying shame

Walter Young. Tall, Great Hands, made big noise in camps with his catches. But when you cannot run a route correctly to save your life you will never make it.

I really think Kuhn would have been pretty good if we had given him a chance in the regular season. I liked him myself. |
