What magic can we pull to find a receiver?

If were are going forward with this group, they need to serious work with Shenault on his routes and hands.  He can get open and is a force once the ball is in his hands, but he's not a comfortable 'hands' catcher and to my knowledge isn't the most polished route runner.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he only has limited route tree capabilities.

My stock on TMJ is at an all-time low.  Considering I was never high on him in the first place, that's saying something.

Shenault is a horrible route runner.  They are doing great with him.  All you can do is scheme plays up for him.   He is a gadget roleplayer.

What about that young guy we just grabbed from the Chiefs? I forget his name but he’s supposed to be quick and has potential. It was probably too soon to throw him into the lineup yesterday but once he has the offense down he could be our stretch the field guy. 

The word on him is raw, but with a lot of potential.  They could have gave him some limited plays, but I guess the staff thought it was a bit too soon.  I imagine he will see a few offensive snaps next week.

We used him beautifully on the opening drive and then just seemingly abandoned it. We have to get him the ball more frequently.

Chicago had him for a few games last year and the fans loved him because he apparently helped secure them the #1 pick.

So that says something...

Naw if you watch Chicago last year or yesterday JF and their lack of playmaking helped them secure that number one draft pick. He doesn't scan the field and throw players open in his 3rd year. It's all check downs or him taking off running it's really an elementary looking offense.

I mean, but he is a gadget roleplayer.   You can only go to that well so much.  Plus, if you leave him out there to try to make it less obvious it becomes just a WR that runs bad routes and can't get separation.   2-3 touches is about what that type guy is supposed to do.  The problem is elsehwere IMO.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
