KR Marcus Murphy - a 2015 draft pick who surprised with his Sproles-like speed/burst, has continued to have problems with putting the ball on the ground; if he can learn to secure the ball, he'll be special; if not, he gone...

Even with the blunders/fumbles/muffs etc, his game is electric & Marcus has vision (often times you can't coach this gift). Imagine this guy getting cut by the Saints, then goes to a div rival & finds a coach to correct his "fumbling/hand to eye coordination issues" & subsequently gashing us TWICE a year. I can't see Sean cutting bait after 1 season.

The others you mentioned ... 50/50 chance.

JP, I only see 4 players listed. Who is the 5th?
