Andre Davis, Dezmin Lewis and Tobais Palmer
Andre Davis has a lot to prove, after a less than complimentary scouting report referred to his lack of speed and leaping ability. The 2014 South Florida MVP also has a concerning amount of timidness, when running routes over the middle.
Dezmin Lewis has strong hands, at least partly explaining why the Bills took a chance on him in the seventh round of this year’s draft. However, the 22-year old’s scouting report refers to him as an average athlete, who lacks the explosive ability to create separation.
Tobais Palmer was one of the more hyped unrestricted free agents, after signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2013. However, the 25-year old has so far done nothing to distinguish himself as an NFL prospect.
2014 receiving statistics: Davis and Lewis are rookies, Palmer had no catches
Statistics versus Panthers: Davis had one catch for six yards, and Palmer had two punt returns for two yards
Will they make the cut? Its’s going to take a virtual miracle for any one of them to make the final roster, but never say never
