He has very much impressed me (for those who are not bear fans, he wears number 11).

He made this catch earlier in the Jag Game, that I about fell to the floor. I think he has loads of potential and could potentially take over for the number 3 from Josh Morgan or Santanio Holmes when one of the other inevitably fails.

No, 1 catch doesn't cut it for me. I'll take the proven players, along with Williams and Wilson.

Anyone remember Brittan Golden or the other 7 foot WR a couple years ago that made 1 or 2 big time catches in preseason? Me neither.

Will Williams even make this team?? He has shown us 1 catch. Josh Bellamy also has the ability to return kickoffs

Williams has been limited with a hamstring injury from said catch. Look at some of his CFL footage, dude can ball out.

he's this years Joe Anderson....

he'll be gone...doesn't have the potential to challenge for a solid WR spot, nor enough upside on the return game when compared to Williams IMO....not to mention perry looked okay on the returns as well...

maybe he'll end up on the PS...

I think if we keep any project WRs, it'll be Spurlock.

He is getting cut along with spurlock IMO unless he is some ST ace. We have marshall, Jeffrey, Wilson, Morgan, Holmes, and Williams.

Is he related to Bill Bellamy? If so, cut him.

Spurlock was more impressive to me but I dont think either make the roster.

I think Morgan is gone. He doesnt offer anything on special teams. Whoever makes the squad in the 5 and 6 WR spots will have to be high upside specials teamers and that could mean anyone at this point. 1. Marshall 2. Jeffery 3. Holmes 4. Wilson 5 and 6 Best special teamers. Considering that the bears WR 4 will barely see the field on offense, this is how I see it breaking down

Morgan offers no upside as a receiver or special teamer. He is a possession WR. The Holmes signing basically moved him right off the roster unless Holmes really tanks it here before saturday cuts

Isn't it easier to teach a guy to play teams than teach a guy to be a possession WR?

The special teams value is a concern with Josh Morgan. That may keep him from making the roster. Emery is going to pull some move before the 53 is announced, whether a trade or waiver pick up from another team (not necessarily for WR but could happen for another position).

no way morgan gets cut.

BM, AJ, Holmes, Morgan, Wilson, Williams. Bellamy MAYBE on the PS, but I think Spurlock looked better (can't remember if he's eligible, think not)

I agree Morgan won't get cut. I think Bellamy is our 6th out.

BM, AJ, Holmes, Morgan, Wilson, Bellamy.

I dont think Williams has shown us enough to keep him
