So...... a #1 WR who has had only 1 healthy/good season in his career (4 years ago), a RB who has had one good year and we badly overpaid based on the rest of the RB contract market this year, a league average (at best) TE that we're also overpaying, and an admittedly solid vet presence as a slot WR.

And that's before even getting to us taking the wrong QB

But sure, let's all get excited over this very average at best set of skill position players.

Literally our OL and Defense are better units than that set of skill position players.

Sorry, but just calling it like I see it.

Also for what it's worth, I don't hate most of the moves we made this offseason, I thought many were great.

But Miles, Chark, and Hurst were the 3 moves I hated the most, and nothing to do with the players specifically, but the whole picture.  I'd have been fine with both Miles and Hurst if the contracts were cheaper and more in line with what their market value should have been with the rest of this year's FA class.  I also don't hate Chark or even his number in a vacuum, it's that I despise going into the season with him as the #1 WR for a rookie QB, would be totally different if he was the #2.

I like Chark but he's been battling the injury bug as of late and signed a one year deal. I want another promising rookie WR. And hopefully by the midway point of the season we're talking about how nice of a weapon Terrace Marshall JR is.

Chark at full strength is an absolute hand full with his speed and length.  High hopes for him this year cuz a Pro Bowl season is not at all out of the question

If he stays healthy is a nice combo. Chark has the speed to be the deep threat, Thielen is the possession slot WR with great hands, and Marshall is the big body large catch radius for the jump balls.

And Byrd is probably the fastest player on the team and Shenault was awesome last year.

Yeah, Thielen is about as clutch as you can get in 3rd down and redzone.  He won’t be a top fantasy guy like he once was but he knows how to make bigtime catches when things get tight.  Love that sign

I think a late rounder is where we most likely target it. I don’t actually expect us to go WR at 2 or 3 unless we really like drops. But there’s a few pretty intriguing options in the later rounds I’ve been looking into that could be pretty exciting

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
