Decent fit. He was likely going to be cut by the Pats. The Lions took a look at him and passed, despite needing WR depth. Where is he at in terms of his career? Is this much ado about nothing or is he going to be an impact guy that the Lions will regret passing on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trentwannabe Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Yay. I saw he had worked out for the Jets and I was scared I was going to have to continue rooting against him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't distinguish himself for us during training camp, and that was before Flash was reinstated. Edited August 21, 2019 by Elky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won’t be that IMO. NE despite their lack of talent at the position, see upside in some players. They have Edelman and Gordon as locks, Matthew Slater as a special team ace, N’Keal Harry as a first rounder, Jakobi Myers as an UDFA who has been one of the best receivers throughout training camp, and still have depth players in Dorsett, Berrios, and Harris. Inman found himself in that bottom group and he knew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious as to what this guy would bring/not bring to the Chargers and Jets that the Lions would pass on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather, Inman didn't offer anything that the Patriots already had with other receivers. Obviously he's not going to be a high impact player as he'll probably be the 3rd or 4th WR at best with the Chargers but I think he can have a relatively productive season with that in mind. His existing familiarity with Rivers will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he merely chose the Chargers over the Lions & Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty21 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 He had four good games for us in Chicago when we traded for him which made me think he could be more than he was. He’s capable of having a couple good games a season but otherwise nothing to rave about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar12 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 He’s a decent wr played well with his short time with the Colts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesehawk Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 A cheaper option at WR I was hoping the Packers would target in FA this offseason. Should do good back in LA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because after the first three (KA, MW, and Benji), I don't see any of the receivers in camp really taking the lead. At worst, Inman is a #5. Best is #3 after MW and KA.
