No love for JR Hemingway?

Submitted by jswavel34 on
IMO a healthy Hemingway could be a much-needed deep threat for this offense. We all remember the 08 and 09 openers where he shined. In the 2008 opener against Utah he caught a TD pass and looked to have a breakout season. A couple weeks later he got mono and missed the rest of the season. In the 2009 opener JR toasted WMU for 100 yards on 5 catches and 2 TDs. Hemingway was again injured and never really was a factor the rest of the year and he has been gimpy throughout spring. Anybody agree with me that IF Junior can stay healthy he can be a real threat this year?

If Junior can stay healthy, I think he'll be a nice complementary receiver but nothing more. Stonum is a much more viable deep threat, and guys like Gallon and Robinson have the speed to take it deep. I'd love to see Junior be a deep threat.. he's just not that fast and hasn't shown us much aside from falling apart due to injuries. He's a weight room warrior though.. so maybe that will help.
