I completely forgot about that dude.

Actually, I did toO (probably like most of us). This is even more of a reason not to believe the hype regarding anyone not named Kelvin Benjamin. There is going to be some competition, and the Huddle may not like who is going to be cut, because someone is going to be cut.

The issue isn't an unwillingness to spend but rather a colossal misdiagnosis of wr talent.

KB not withstanding the team doesn't get it.

Seattle went to the Super Bowl with TWO UNDRAFTED wrs.

Your last point cancels your first point..

This was said last year and look what happened during the season.

 

Cam was hurt 80% of the season.

 

We didn't have a consistent o-line that built chemistry til late in the season.

 

Our #2 corner back at the end of the season missed 8 games.

 

Our best pass rusher played hurt a lot of the season, and te other pass rusher missed all but 1 game.

 

We didn't start our #1 CB and our FS til last 5 games.

 

But I mean it's okay let's pretend it was just say it's because we didn't sign some player, yeah?

I'm sorry you don't understand

Yeah I'm sorry those numbers aren't showing out imo..

He was good for a undrafted (as was Melvin White) but I don't want to depend on him being more than a 4th wr. .

Right Now he is fragile and more of a slot guy than a all around #2 WR.. Which is what we need..

Tell us wow.

How much should we spend on a #2 wr?

Kenny Britt could be a number 2 that won't cost more than 3mil a year. 1 example of a FA. I also think you can get a number 2 WR in the draft..Which again is very deep in WR..

My imo is there is no reason we should enter the season with Cotchery, Ginn, Bersin or Brown as the number 2. . And added bonus we shouldn't have Bersin and Cotchery on the roster.. Maybe 1 but not both..

Really if we achieve the goal of adding speed and Cam weapons.. Neither should make the team....

Best case scenario is we have a roster of more talented WR'S than Bersin and Cotchery. .

Let's pretend the scraps weren't one of the main reasons we sucked early in the season.

 

Cason (Our supposed #1 going)

Decoud

Cotchery

Avant

 
Honestly I only want us to target a decent/cheap wr. I'm tired of not being able to overcome 17 point leads. The rest of the holes can be addressed in the draft or after.

In the vicinity of 2.5 mil per year, with 4-6 mil guaranteed on a 4 year contract. This person may not necessarily be a WR2, but with upside. We can then draft someone to definitely fill our WR2 role, or at least compete for it while they develop, then likely have to pay them bigger bucks in three to four years if everything works out.

Having bodies isn't "filling a need"

We aren't, or it should utterly horrify you if we are , simply trying to get 53 guys on the roster. We should be trying to field a team that is better than Seattle, New England.

We shouldn't be trying to hold water. We should be trying to be the best.

Michael Oher isn't addressing a need. Ted Ginn isn't addressing a need.

The thing about the Hawks is that Wilson is actually better out of the pocket and Marshawn can run over just about anybody, so the OL is really not that important for them.

They just let go of their former pro bowl center and have one of the worst interior guards (Sweezy-a DT turned OG,) in the NFL.

with all of our injuries to our bruising RB Stewart...our, Lead blocker Tolbert on the IR half the season, Trai on the sideline, and basically the worst LT ever to play in the NFL with only UDFA to compensate, it was floodgates open with no hope and not enough fingers to plug the deluge. it was Just about worst case scenario and you can add a hobbled QB to that.

I mean, we had Olsen and Swole Bones in the backfield half the time just keep our QB from getting killed as soon as he snapped the ball. well, we finally got healthy and made the playoffs.

I don't ever want to see Olsen in the backfield as a blocker ever again. so we need our line to be deep, healthy and have great chemistry all while being perfectly clear about their role and blocking assignments. that happens and we are gonna be one tough team to take down.
