I remember reading that he has the best hands in the NFL as he's never had a drop in his career.

but I read that like 2 years ago

interesting...would like to see what he can do with a decent qb. He's had a lot of injuries if I recall but he had some talent for sure.

In the 2009 NFL season, Camarillo did not drop a single pass thrown to him, earning him a reputation as a safe pair of hands in a pinch.

Why?
He's the reason we're stuck with Darren Sproles.

I think he was the WR who dropped a 3rd down pass from Favre in the 2010 season opener on Thursday night that would have extended the Vikings drive and put them in a position to beat us late in the 4th quarter.

ETA - it wasn't really a horrible "drop" on the play I was thinking of - the WR laid out and got both hands on Farve's pass at around the Saints' 20 yard line but couldn't come up with it. Does anybody else remember this? I think they punted and we ran out the clock.

I remember it because I was one of the few people who had the earlier point spread of Saints -4.5 and so I won my bet because of their missed XP. Most Saints fans had either -5 or -5.5 and pushed or lost.

I've probably had about 10 football bets decided by a missed extra point in my gambling career, and I think that was the only 1 of the 10 that the miss worked out in my favor. Shitty how that works.
