Sure handed big wideout who takes a while to get his chance...best of luck to him.
Go Blue.

Glad to see he has stuck with it and finally got some game-time action. Hopefully this can lead to him being a member of the game-squad next year if he continues to provide good depth and work on special teams.
I've never really seen him as a starting receiver (at least not a #1 or #2 WR) in the league, but with as many 3 and 4 WR sets that are run, I feel despite his speed, his good hands and route running could eventually end up with him getting some playing time in the future and hopefully lead to a nice career in professional football.

He'll eventually make some insanely impossible catch and become a fan favorite.
January 2nd, 2011 at 4:59 PM ^
hear the announcers say during the game that the Saints pay him more to stay on the practice squad than other teams pay to give him a roster spot? That was the most insane part of the whole game for me.

the fact that Tampa Bay had a player off of I believe the Falcons practice roster who was better paid than some starters. it makes sense bc he's a solid receiver who hasn't cracked a very talented depth chart but would be needed asap in the event Colston or Meachem went down.

Arrington would have been the next Marquise Walker if he had stuck around for his senior year and had a QB to get him the ball. I really think he could have been great as the #1 guy.

He put on an absolute clinic in the Capital One game and could have used that to propel himself into a great receiver.
January 2nd, 2011 at 7:01 PM ^
sure how many opportunities to catch balls he would have had with Threet/Sheridan and a very suspect OL in 2008.
January 2nd, 2011 at 6:04 PM ^
in preseason, but it may have been last year's preseason. I was surprised he still had practice squad eligibility left for this year.

How great a final game did he have against Florida? Those post routes were outstanding back in the day. Great wr.

I know who I am drafting in the final round of every fantasy draft next season.
