Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

New Saints WR Cameron Meredith 'way ahead of schedule' - New Orleans Saints Blog- ESPN

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

Great news ... here a quick clip on Meredith at Saints OTA's. JP ...notice Coach Curtis @ :15 with the whipping stick :p.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

It looks like he is moving really well. From that clip you can't se him favoring either leg or not cutting hard.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

He makes a good point that many players have comeback from similar injuries like Jory Nelson.

Odds of him making a solid comeback are good.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

He looks pretty smooth and comfortable. I like it!

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

I had to take another peek at the Meredith video ^^^^ .... he's cutting pretty darn well in those drills. By t/c I think he'll be 100%. Definitely ahead of schedule. Watch him make the Bears & Pace look like idiots.

Keep grinding.

Championship!

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

I'm not expecting much even if he does make it the whole season. His success in Chicago was like Pryor's where he was open a lot because it didn't matter a lot.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

Beast,

C'mon now ... this cat has size, speed & blocks well. Trust me, Sean Payton & his staff have a clear vision for Meredith in this offense. Much like they had with Kamara. Pre injury this guy was putting up serious numbers with Matt Barkley throwing him the ball. Don't forget who coached him in Chicago (Curtis J). If all goes as planned with rehab, we have a legit #2 WR threat.

BTW, don't see the Pryor comparison at all. Trust and believe :bng:.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

You beat me to it, K. I was about to say the same things. He had already been slated to be the Bears' #1 WR this past season before he went down. This guy's got good size, speed, hands and route running ability in addition to being able to block down field. The ONLY question mark was his health and it is looking like that isn't going to be a factor at all. I really feel he'll have us forgetting all about Snead, Coleman AND Ginn by halfway through the season.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

He only got on the field in Chicago due to bodies dropping. They were also not a competitive team. He is a QB-WR converter like Pryor. I think he will be a good pick up but he still has a long long way to go.



I'm not saying he sucks but watch his highlights. He was wide open most of the time. I do though hope I am 100% wrong and I eat crow.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

He's open because he's a polished route runner. He converted to QB early in college and led his team in catches his final two seasons. Pryor never played WR until he came to the NFL. Apples and oranges. Meredith was a natural WR that played high school QB. Pryor was an athlete that played QB because he was the best athlete. He's not an NFL proficient player at either position, though.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

Not sure why people don't get this. Possibly another reason why Brandon Cooks is no longer in NO. Gotta have the complete package at this level.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

Yeah. Know what you mean.

Re: Cam Meredith Ahead Of Schedule
 

I think it was a great gamble. I was actually pushing for us singing him. He is unpolished though. New QB, new playbook and has not played football in a while. Most of what he has to do is mental. He has the physical ability. Can he do it? I do not know but I hope. Looking at his highlights, he was on a bad team snagging grabs in junk time. One of his TD's was a freakin hail mary that dinged off of a couple of players.

And, he was never considered as the two or three. That only happened due to injuries which fan boys will ignore. He was their best option by default.
