Aiken is right above him.

Saw this pic on Twitter. What do we notice about his hands?

Now look at Jaleel Scott. Yes the pass is higher than the one above but his hands are in perfect position.

Yup those pics are not surprising ^

Forced unnatural motion vs smooth natural catching ability

it should be open competition. If late round rookies and UDFAs are playing better then him this offseason, then yes cut him

He’s just not a natural hands catcher.

Has a juggs machine ever helped anyone improve significantly, anyone of note?

It appears as though the Ravens may have decided to carry Perriman deep into Training Camp. I would think the Ravens would've released him before OTA's. This may be an indication that they are planning to eat the 650K bonus to see if Perriman has progressed from that atrocious season.

If the Ravens are planning to cut Perriman before training camp, then these OTA's are rather important for Perriman. I haven't got that indication from listening to the coaching staff that this is the case. I could be wrong though.

What're your thoughts?

Perriman is going to perform well during OTAs. I think we all expect that. His issue has been in games. Coach Harbaugh has even eluded to that in the past, with comments on the issue, if I can remember correctly.

Definitely an interesting question.

Juggs machines just let you get as many reps as you want which is good for muscle memory obviously. But if a guy has shit technique catching the ball, a million reps won’t fix his technique.

I found this article on ESPN coincidentally mentioning Perriman.

Now with his fourth team in eight NFL seasons, the 30-year-old Wallace finds himself the professor. Just as he did at previous stops in Minnesota and Miami, he's returning the favor of Ward by mentoring young Ravnes receivers Breshad Perriman, Chris Moore and Keenan Reynolds. Office hours usually include a session (or two) with the Jugs machine.

Back in the day, Wallace would do 200 balls after practice, but young players today don't seem to have that kind of attention span, so Wallace "toned it down" with 50 balls apiece on each side. To keep them engaged, Wednesday's bonus session features one-handed catches, followed by a freestyle competition.

"You have to kind of do something crazy," Wallace said. "We call that one the 'Make it nasty.'"

Wallace tells the young receivers, "If you want to get as much money as you can, you have to catch passes. And this helps. If you have access to something that is going to make you better or help you at your craft, help your family live better, then why not do it?

"If you do it in high school, you'll be better by college. Then you'll be amazing by the time you get to the NFL."

Yeah, that's a great question. Just standing in front of a JUGGS machine may not do much. I hope he hired a trainer in the offseason to help refine his catching ability. But, looking at these pics, it doesn't appear to be the case lol.

That’s and it’s hard to retrain mechanics that have been developed from a young age.
