Would be nice if we could use Shenault as more than a gadget player, can he not play traditional WR?? 🤔 

I feel like this staff is competent and will get him involved. He was a late addition for us before the season started, but now he will be on equal footing with everyone else as the new offense is installed. We just have to find a way to manufacture touches for him because he's a lot more dangerous than DJ after the catch and is very hard to bring down and runs over little dbs.

Targets correlate to production. No matter what at this point if he stays healthy he will get the targets. All you have to do is grab about 60% of them and you’ll be a number one. But of course you have to give the QB a reason to target you. With his limited separation speed he will need to work on his route tree obsessively. I have hopes he can do it.

Unfortunately, I believe this is more likely. 

I suspect we will wait until prices start to fall but still make at least one WR addition in free agency.

That is my exact line of thinking!  Let the prices drop and get one in the 2nd wave of free agency and then go all out to obtain a real good one in the draft.

I mean it’d be so dam nice to have him run up the field seven yards turn around and catch the ball I might go crazy. Craziest thing I’ve seen worst part is he ran routes in jax so it’s not that far fetched.

He is a nice developmental type guy but no sooner than the 4th IMO.  Raw player

He won’t be available in the 4th and he’s not as raw as you think imo. 
 

He‘s a hands catcher who finds holes in zones well and is good at using his size advantage to position himself to make the catch. I like him in the 3rd and wouldn’t mind him late 2nd if we traded back.

Meh…missing on him doesn’t bother me,  he won’t turn into anything

This is a weak draft class for WR's to be honest.

 

Even the best WR Johnston from TCU is not even a sure thing as a #1 WR.

 

I still think trade is our best option at WR. If we can get Jeudy or Sutton we are in good shape. 

It's a weak class if you're looking for a #1 but I think there's a lot of #2s and #3s in this draft. We wouldn't be in rage at #39 to get a guy anyone is projecting as a #1 anyway. Those guys go HIGH.

Which is why I suggested the Broncos WR's via trade.

 

They both have #1 potential. Sutton was a #1 before his injury. Both guys had close to 1000 yards recieving with Russ playing terrible. The goal should be getting a #1 WR or at least a WR with that potential. The rookie QB needs someone he can trust. Depending on #2/#3 WR's is going to make his job a lot harder.

Might as well just shoot for the moon and trade up for Addison if he falls to the early 20s.  Could go WR3 behind Johnston and S-N.  

Just shmaying.

      The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
