Why I like the Hogan Signing

[Steves89]

Remember how, for three years we complained about how our receivers could never get separation and Cam had some of the smallest windows to throw through? Well, Hogan ranked second in the league last year in separation (https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/receiving/2018/all) Hogan is a reliable receiver with some big play potential and should make things easier for Cam. My question now is who is the odd man out? Or do we keep Samuel, Moore, Smith, Wright, and Hogan? I would cut smith and maybe bring in a late round pick, but that's just me. 

Oh, by the way, while Hogan was 2nd in separation last year, guess who was last.

9 targets, 13 yards and 1 touchdown less ... than our previous #1 receiver (until the Detroit game)..

Good signing... vet presence and should mix well with what we already have. 

I'm good with it ... if we need a RZ target ...Greg Olsen and Ian Thomas.

Awesome signing. I’m very excited about Moore, Samuel, Wright and Hogan as our starting 4. Hogan can beat out Wright and they can interchange.

Guess what we got CMC too! Wow Cam has weapons now!

Lol that's funny nope.

I don’t get excited about many signings anymore.  I was excited for Russell Shepard’s potential and Dontari Poe.  Just gonna see how it plays out

Honestly, I'm not expecting much. 

Pats fans say he's a good 3/4 option in a passing attack but struggled mightily when asked to be their #2. 

I really don't foresee him getting a ton of looks his way this year. Players in line to see more targets than him are CMC, Greg, Moore, Samuel, and Wright. In my mind, he's 6th in line to see a target. 1 or 2 a game. Hopefully it was a relatively cheap deal and we can save some money by moving on from Smith.

We'll see.

I like the Hogan signing. I see him coming in and making the tuff catches as he has done. Also bringing in some Veteran experience and showing the younger guys the ropes...

Funny stat. Just got off the Pats board and all they were all saying was he couldn't get separation last year. Hope their all clueless. Few did say he and Brady just weren't on the same page. Superbowl LVII 6 catches 128 yrds. Tells me he is at least clutch.

Boom

[top dawg]

I honestly didn't know about the separation thing. He should help this offense. We'll see what Norv is thinking.

I'd love this signing if it means getting rid of Smith
