Can Perriman be our first 1000 yard rookie receiver?

[Cillmatic]

For all we know this guy could be dead and his Twitter has just been set to post "blessed" every 24 hours.

For the time being the BUST label can stick. REALLY didn't see much good in him at UCF, that combined with the injury is NOT a good start.

Hopefully (HOPEFULLY) we see him after the bye.

[jazz1988]

yeah but dude..andre johnson was a lightyears better prospect than perriman..

 

also johnson didn't have this '' i am totally blessed..its a blessing attitude''..he was quiet and a killer in college.

 

perriman is not a football player..hes an athlete  and with bad knees.

 

 

its time to forget drafting WR"s as long as ozzie is around. Get the boldins and masons in FA and have a good running game and tight end. Ozzie has always been overrated..he's not horrible but he's not great. he must have had an awesome scout team earlier in his career but since harbs has been around..its been pretty bad..

 

 

which is why cap space is so important for this team. ( looking at you joe)

 

Ravens fans in general seem to always been hard on  rookie wide receivers which is kind of understandable. Torrey Smith was named  a bust  before he even touched the field in the regular season.  The idea Ravens fans such as your self nit picking on this guy(Perriman) because he likes to say he is blessed on his twitter page is crazy to me lol. Johnson was light years better prospect than Demaryius Thomas even Julio Jones wasn't all that polished as a receiver when he came out of college.

 

Just because a receiver isn't polished as a route runner and etc doesn't mean he won't be good or great. The idea that Perriman isn't a football player is not clear yet  and the guy hasn't even played three seasons in The NFl but it's quite obvious you just don't like the guy even if  you got to say stuff like he's soft before he even plays a NFl game .

How can a player be a bust in his first season ever in The NFl?

[stampedehero]

Bottom Line  Once he plays and sets his shadow on the field he has to stay healthy through one game.   

[Bmoreazfan]

I'm hoping all of this talk about him being a bust is enough to motivate him to prove us wrong (if he ever plays). Its pretty safe to say this minor injury is a look at was is to come as far as being able to stay healthy. I'm no orthopedic knee surgeon but I'm hearing If a young guy misses the entire season over a Grade 1 or Grade 2 PCL sprain (especially after stem cell injections) I think its safe to say he is not going to payoff as a 1st round pick. Please prove us wrong

Can't get on te field. Wasn't that good of a prospect to begin with. I can't argue with the people calling him a wasted pick.

Every pick is not going to be liked by fans that's just how things is but to call this guy a bust when he hasn't even touch the field yet or even played three season worth of football isn't logical.

Sergio Kindle didnt get much Pt either

Sergio Kindle also fell down a flight of stairs in which he had some brain damage. The chances of him ever playing  to the level that The Ravens expect had to be were  slim / iffy which is one of reason why they didn't sign him to a  four year contract . 

[GrimCoconut]

I agree. I'm not at all happy with this mystery injury and I somewhat honestly question his toughness and desire to play, but it's premature to call him a bust at this time.

[52520Andrew]

So it this essentially a thread where we are discussing Perriman's injury or is there still any discussion at all(not sarcastic) about him being a 1,000 yard WR?

I think this topic died long ago when we realized this injury wouldn't resolve like that of a normal human being.

This injury is just going to be a crutch on perriman career now. People will say he cant get separation with that 4.2 - 4.3 speed cause of this "sprain". Perriman will play like a 4.5 - 4.6 players. Bust.

He's always played like a 4.5-4.6 player. Only rarely did he play with a little speed.

This is quite true but I feel like you're only saying it out of disdain. 

 

 

His route running is shabby and he has to slow down to make his cuts and breaks. Only his slants are ran at full speed and they are deadly.

Nah, I could tell before we even drafted him. I remember looking at his film a week before the video of him "allegedly" running a 4.26, when that video came out I looked at his film again and knew he wasn't that fast. I've been saying it the whole time. He doesn't play anywhere near a 4.3

For comparison, Desean Jackson runs a 4.35. Perriman plays NO WHERE near that.

The only reason we drafted him was because the

FO was dumb enough to think he'd play that fast.

Can't run a route, bad hands, doesn't run fast. Bust. THATS disdain.

look..no one wanted perriman here.

 

of course when ozzie drafted him..suddenly people pretended to be happy.

Tbh if he was 25%  the guy he was drafted to be , he'd still be our 2nd best WR

2nd best WR On this team means absolutely nothing. still not starting material for most teams.

[bMore Heathen]

I wouldn't be surprised if Michael Campanaro is pissed off at Perriman. Campanaro went on IR for an injury he claims has a quick recovery timeframe. The Ravens put him on IR because they need a roster spot, which he could've kept his if Perriman went instead.

Here you have a guy who clearly wants to be on the field and could be, but our first round rookie isn't, for whatever reason. I know some will say he should blame the Ravens for not putting Perriman on IR instead of Campanaro, but people don't always rationalize like that.

This is a valid point. I guess it goes back to the misdiagnosis from the get go. It's likely that the medical staff kept (and keep, apparently) telling Harbaugh he would be back, there is no need for IR, yet here we are months later and he's still not practicing. I would say if he's not practicing after the bye, we should just put him on IR and use that roster spot. Edited October 31, 2015 by bMore Heathen

Apparently he wasnt even the #1 WR on the Depth chart at UCF. UCF played BUMS for most of their season and he STILL only caught 50 balls. Plus he was BEHIND Aiken on OUR depth chart, anyone below Aiken is trash or not playing. Dude doesn't even have a highlight video on YouTube! Lol. Could be an average #3, that's it for me. Bust. Draft Boyd, sign Marvin Jones.

I didn't think Mike Evans or Julio Jones played at their recorded 40 times either. Perriman  may not play at his 4.25 speed in college but the kid isn't slow .  Jones wasn't a great route runner, his hands weren't really all that solid, and etc when he came out of college.

 

It's cool if you don't like that guy you entilted to that but calling him a bust now is crazy. It's even more crazy that people think his 40 time is the only reason why The Ravens drafted him in the first place. Perriman was getting first round buzz way before he even participated in running the 40 . Greg Cosell whom well respected among the league as NFl Analysts/filmer  even talked about how much he liked Perriman.

Mike Evans had the Size, body control and GREAT hands though; and Julio was productive in college, HUGE and he was a combine warrior with a broken foot. Edited October 31, 2015 by Cillmatic

That's besides the point you nitpicking on Perriman cause  he doesn't play at his 4.2 speed. Honestly Evans probably drops in the draft f ihe doesn't run 4.44 40 and just like Perriman his route running wasn't all that great either. You mention Mike Evans but Julio Jones basically had the same issues as Perriman has when he came out of college.

They didn't look as bad and/or as sluggish, they actually played good teams, were the firm #1 WR's on their teams, displayed high awareness and showed high potential. Perriman is nowhere near as polished as Mike Evans or Julio were. If he was he would've been picked before we drafted him, IMO.

[Cillmatic]

We drafted him because he was fast, he's not playing, we traded for Chris Givens and got the EXACT same thing we'd get from Perriman if not a little more.

[BmoreBird22]

Agreed.

When Kevin White got injured it was known he would be out for the year.

I've never heard of a sprained (not torn, SPRAINED) PCL that takes months to heal.

Actually, this isn't entirely true.

The Bears placed him on the PUP, so they must have thought he might play, and reports have said he might be cleared for week 11.

And here's the crazy thing- the Bears were adamant that it was just shin splints, that he was symptom free, and that he was running. It progressed far further after they made it out to be something small. Hmmm, sounds like something similar to the Ravens and Perriman...

They didn't look as bad or as sluggish to you because I think you  just don't like the guy. It's just obvious Cilllmatic you  don't like the guy and that's fine nothing wrong with that. I didn't like the C.J Mosley pick back in 2014 draft but  that was at that time. Neither Mike Evans and Julio Jones were polished period as receivers especially Julio Jones whom Greg Cosells seems to compare Perriman to.

 

Even if Perriman  isn't polished as Mike Evans or Julio Jones that doesn't mean  he won't be a good player.

[Cillmatic]

It's not that I don't Ike "him", jus don't think he'll be good. I'd love to be wrong though.
