I love me some Meachem.

I want to jump all over that cuz he's about to blow up and I don't wanna see him torch us for 5 more seasons..

Hey I can do this too.

Gettis

Gettis showed potential, but you've seen what happens when you put all your eggs into the basket of a guy coming off an injury. Not to mention, there have been countless WR's that looked great/showed mad potential in their rookie year, then fell off a cliff.

If Meachem is affordable(all signs point to that being the case), it'd be a great sign. Can never have too much talent.

holy poo it feels good knowing WR's will actually WANT to play for us.

I'm always a little leary of taking a guy from a team that has a multifaceted attack because there's always the question of whether he can still produce outside the system in the absence of the other threats (guys like Alvin Harper, Az Hakim, etc).

That's why they have pro scouts.

    • There wasn't a moment of the day that I couldn't at least hear helicopters.
    • Spoken like someone who hasn't watched nearly enough of T-Mac other than a few short highlight clips to know his game. The only thing he doesn't have is the short area quickness in the way that you're looking for, as you seem to want that Jefferson/Chase type of WR, which sure, he's not that. But him and XL are nothing alike, let alone having the same strengths and weaknesses.  In particular, T-Mac's #1 strength is LITERALLY XL's #1 weakness, their hands.  T-Mac has vice grips for hands, catches darn near everything, and does it all with hands catches, the opposite of XL.   Beyond that, you mention prioritizing route running, of which, T-Mac already runs a complete NFL route tree at a high level.  Yes, he needs to work on his get off the line at the snap and get a little crisper on some of his cuts to create separation, but again, all players need to work on something, that's just what his is.  It doesn't change that he is already a great route runner, there are just some small elements of it that he can improve on. Even then, it's like I've been saying, the trade off of not having that true elite separation like the smaller WR's get, is how good he is at using his body to keep the DB's from being able to break up passes and just making contested catches in general.  You lose a little bit of separation, but his 6'5" body gives him advantages that the smaller WRs just don't have. Again, your post here insinuates that T-Mac is a slow, plodding big WR who isn't a proficient route runner, which couldn't be further from the truth.  I have no issue with people wanting other players over T-Mac, or just not wanting him at all.  But they need to be logical reasons, not made up ones in your head because you don't actually know the player and his abilities.
    • I'm pretty sure that was the best season he's ever gonna have.
