[QUOTE="LarrysCrookedFinger, post: 668121, member: 11393"] If Abbrederis is so superior to Janis in this regard, then why did he not out-perform him on every level against the Cardinals? Instead, it was the other way around. If Abbrederis is such a refined route runner and is wise beyond his years with the playbook, then that tells me that Janis has a much higher ceiling than him once he catches up in that regard. All anyone seems to want to talk about is playbook this, playbook that. While obviously a comprehensive understanding of the offense is of high importance, the playbook is only part of the equation. Speed and strength aren't found in the playbook. The ability to catch the ball isn't in the playbook. The ability to improvise when a play goes bust? Not in the playbook. Playmaker instincts? Nope. Not in there either. Neither is size and physicality. I think the only way Abbrederis makes the roster is if Davis is an immediate and obvious bust [I]or [/I]if they keep 7 WR. Nelson, Cobb, Adams (despite his horrendous season), Janis and Montgomery are all pretty much locks unless one of them just totally screws up big time. If Davis shows up and does everything that is expected of a 5th round draft pick, then he'll make the roster too. That pretty much leaves Abbrederis as the odd man out. I have a hunch if Abbrederis had gone to play football at somewhere other than UW then there wouldn't be near as much fuss about him around here. [/QUOTE]
