I like the signing as long as it's commensurate with his contributions,   he is a nice player that I don't think they utilize his skill set enough.   I would like to see him tried as kind of a gadget guy like Mckinnon maybe?  Just not sure he can take the additional pounding the JM takes for KC

Well, as of now the team has no clear WR #3.  I think Powell can be that guy, but it'd be nice to get another one too.

Stepped up as a WR when we were down last year, do not love him as a returner and would prefer to see him just at WR.

He was pretty reliable on punt returns.  And he showed up mid season at WR3.  In one 8 game stretch, he had 24 of his total 29 season receptions.  This is a good value re-signing.

Great resigning, love that kid - all heart. Solid player at a position of needed depth.

Brandon Powell’s got that dog in him. Nice to have him back

I was hoping they would bring him back. This is a good move. He was pretty reliable the few times the ball was thrown his way.

Dig it.  WR3/4 box now checked.  If we can draft a guy cool but it's another position we no longer "have to" fill.

Powell competing with Nailor for WR3 isn't terrible.

What's going on with KJ Osborn?  Is this a sign that Powell effectively replaces him?  Getting Powell KJ's reps?

well KJ is a free agent and likely is wanting a bigger role ( if one is available ) than a 3/4 guy behind two of the better in the game currently.  I doubt he is back unless there is virtually no market for him which would be odd.
