A WR who can from the WR position move the chains.. What the fug is the problem having a WR who can do that stuff.. Doesn't it make your offense hard to plan for when you Don't know who going to run what route from what position..

I would stop arguing with him, he's not going to get it.  This board is literally toxic.

Oh yes the great chain mover, that’s why he was so productive these past two seasons.

I guess you don’t know how an nfl offense works. Lmao “hard to plan for” and Jarius Wright don’t go in the same stratosphere.

Diggs has been playing outside these past two seasons, Theilen the same. Every WR plays that slot even Kelvin played in the slot, the slot is not some magical spot where only a certain WR can get snaps. 

Its not about concern it’s about a fact and a trend, fact Wright is a mediocre unproductive WR. Trend the panthers continue year after year to bring these type of receivers, and year after year people hype on this forum hype them up.

Wright won’t do squat more than likely, so at the end of the day his signing isn’t of much significance, my gripe is that he might get more snaps than Samuel knowing are Rivera 

I'm not saying nobody else is allowed in the slot or that Diggs and Thielen only play there.  But they have taken the majority of snaps there for the Vikings the last couple of years.  Leaving less opportunity for a role player not of their caliber.

I would classify Wright as mediocre as well and there is a hype trend on the forum.  Game changing receivers probably aren't sitting in free agency but he does potentially fill a role so there is still some reason for optimism.  There likely isn't many targets left behind Olsen, McCaffery and Funchess anyway.

Samuel is a legitimate concern especially when the staff has been unwilling to move on from vets very quickly in the past too.  I think Samuel might be heading for the PUP to start the season though and forcing him to steal snaps from Wright (or Smith, however the staff views him) is not necessarily a bad thing for his development either.

How productive was Ginn in Miami, or Zona ??  Not vert much right?? What happen when he got here?? DO you not understand you can't always count on what a player do in a different system on another team and determine hos affect on your team and your system..

Your using Ginn as a benchmark lol

 

Ginn was actually  more productive in Miami than Wright in Minnesota, I think Ginn had his best season in terms of yards in receptions in Miami. Plus Ginn filled an actual need, Wright fills nothing, but take up space from Byrd and Samuel who both out produced him last year on a per game basis.

Jarius Wright caught something like 75% of his targets the last two years.  If DCs are planning for him, it's not really keeping him from catching the football....

I'll never understand the angst for WRs on this board.

We are a run-heavy offense that also targets the TE often.  Now we have an RB that can catch out of the backfield in space.  In a highly productive offense, that will leave about 2800 yards for our WR group.

Everyone seems to want two WRs with 900-1100 yards per season.  I'd rather have 4-6 guys that can step into multiple roles and get 400-600 each (maybe a little more for Funchess).  This is just as productive, keeps everyone fresh, provides cover for injuries, and prevents us from having to pay a particular WR 15m plus per year.

You fuging idiot.. WE ARE NOT GETTING A NUMBER 1 WR this year.. The Bench mark is now putting a WR Corp together with skill sets that fits the new OC's plan. If having a high catch rate and getting open isn't a need than you need to stop watching football. IF you can't understand that than take the season off and follow another team... You Don't understand the plan or why the situation is the way it is fine... But to bitch over poo you have no clue about makes you a moron...

Oh and Ginn was considered a bust no matter what production you thought was adequate.. He was the 9th pick in a draft so 1 year of production doesn't mean you weren't bitching 4 years ago when we brought him here and were wrong...

[Mojo]

He reminds me more of a Randall Cobb/Eddie Royal.  But sure hands on 3rd down I can definitely see a similarity in that respect.

[top dawg]

5'10", and he is supposed to be J-Co 2.0. There were a couple of years when Cotchery was effectively his teams number one receiver and all the defensive attention that came with it. What in the blue blazes do you think will happen with Wright as a number one receiver? Huh?

Please!

DING DING DING.  If it's not obvious to anyone else, we are trying to pattern 2018 like 2015.  Believe it or not, this is what Belichick does.  How many good receivers have they had aside of Moss during their "dynasty"?  Welker?  He was a role player who's talents perfectly matched Tom Brady's offensive philosophy.  The just cobble together guys who can be functional when properly mixed together with play calling.  This is what we are attempting to do.

A more diverse offense is actually better suited for success than a team like.... Cinci for instance that forces so many passes to AJG

Come on dude.  Who is expecting this guy to be a #1 receiver and wtf does it matter what JCo did at the Jets six years before he came home?  The point is, Wright is a player who fills the role that Cotchery did on THIS team in 2015.  That's what we were going for.  This is who we got.  End of story.
