Camarillo done for the season

November 24, 2008 · Written by: Butler 

During Tony Sparano’s press conference he said about Camarillos injury that “Camarillo is not good – he’s done.”. Pretty much ending Camarillos impressive year at WR. While unfortunate it does allow for more WR’s to come out and perform to see if they deserve to be on this roster. Brandon London and Ernest Wilford will all try to take their shots at trying to replace the 3rd WR spot.

Sparano said on the situation “Ernest Wilford has been getting better and better every single week on the practice field. London has been doing some good things. Maybe not as consistent as I’d like it right now, particularly from a special teams standpoint. Even in practice sometimes. [London's] got to be a little bit more consistent. He plays a bit young sometimes, but he’s getting better.”

Wilford should look to get better in practice since hes just been standing around for the game getting paid big money for nothing. But London should look to be a big surprise just as Camarillo was this season. What is needed now is consistency from the WR position. Camarillo always caught the ball and looked for extra yards. Bess can do that, Ginn is more of a deep threat and we need to see what London and Wilford can do.

Wilford was brought in to be a reliable and durable pass catcher and London was brought in to be a special teams star. Now if Camarillo goes on the IR, that leaves room for an extra WR so who knows who else could be brought in. Maybe Anthony Armstrong could be brought in, or some other free agent WR.

Last year this time saying Camarillo would be out for the whole season nobody would really care, but now it is entirely different. It is amazing how a chain reaction of events can make something bigger.
