What about the old veteran WRs we did pass on, huh?


top dawg

I think it's funny that people think WR is the problem.

If Cam had more time to throw it wouldn't matter.

Games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage. RG - RT will do wonders for the offense.

I thought these threads would end when several posters pointed out that a WR may help some in the passing game a great O-line vastly improves every facet of our offense.

Oh, and what kills me is the people who finds it odd that other people are discussing WRs, when we have needed a WR for arguably the last five years.

 

Personally, I hope that we tweak the O-line with some vets, and double dip at WR in this year's draft. 

 

What I wouldn't do to get a Jaelen Strong, Brandon Coleman, or even a Chris Boyd later in this draft, and I haven't even checked out so many of the others yet.

Anyone who doesnt think we have a significant problem at wide receiver is the biggest idiot on this board and it is by a country mile.

They do not get seperation. It is that simple. Pretending as if it is the OL's fault or even more lulzworthy, Cam's, is deluding yourself in the biggest way and you should be banned for trying to spread such slander. We have struggles at OL, sure. That doesnt explain why Brandon Lafell and the opposing CB are routinely holding each other's peckers all the way down the sideline each and every play when it is there which is often enough to be more effective than it has been if we had even a competent number 2.

I'm tired of having to scheme Brandon open to get him his 2 to 4 catches a game. That isn't a weapon, that is a liability.

And of course once every 8 weeks Brandon will finally put together a solid game against some team's UDFA and the Huddle will erupt with cheers of "HAHA OW WEE MAYNE TOLD U HE 4 REEL NOT URRBODY GONNA BE JULIO JONES!!"

You know, I never thought about the fact that it does appear that we scheme to get LaFell open more times than not. Could be true...which is another reason why he is not the best WR2 to have for Cam (deferring to those who believe that LaFell is a legit two). And just think, he had some uttering that he was possibly 89's heir once upon a time. If someone still believes this after basically four years, God help them. The notion is more than amusing...more than funny...it's just downright ludicrous.

Interesting point, but Wallace and Jennings has bad QB play. What's sad is Wallace and Tannehil only connection on the deep ball came on our DB's

 

 

Perhaps (especially more in the case of Jennings), but that's why I threw in the line about the LaFell-Clausen connection, even though LaFell didn't begin the season as a clear-cut starter. You can't blame everything on bad QB play. 

 

I know one thing: I am not liking the idea of overpaying Nicks, not only because of what I've seen from vets lately, but because of what I've seen from rookies.  I would hate to miss out on some young talent because we opted to overpay for a guy on questionable knees who appears to have lost a step, can't get the separation that he once did, and seems to use his big body to just out muscle balls from DBs that he once blew by.

I want Nicks, but if he's asking for too much no thanks. I just hope we not putting too much on him and if we dont get him, we then proceed to move on from WR. That's a failure 100%
