Describe a receiving corps that would best suit Cam

[davos]

The title says it all.  I'm not interested in seeing a hypothetical depth chart of specific players.  You can reference some if you want but I'm interested in seeing what traits at WR would work the best given Cam's play at QB.  

 

The obvious: A large physical balanced receiver >6'2, good hands, blocker, doesn't give up on plays

 

 

Whatsayyou?

Gotta fire Shula first.

 

He's not getting fired, I'm not proposing specific changes, and that has nothing to do with the thread.

Cam throws lasers. Need wr who can catch that. Don't know specific tangibles but maybe look at wr whose college qbs share similar traits to cam.

Not going to happen. He is here as long as Ron is and he isn't going anywhere. I doubt the ST coach goes either.

Whoever OP is, he seems like a condescending dick

Able to catch obviously but mostly more speed, we need a more guys who can get out of coverage and get open. I'm tired of seeing passes in coverage, every team has a few guys who can get open. Sure our OC calls long developing plays but I don't want a guy who falls down after he's pressed like Bersin. We need quickness!!!!!

Definitely.  I think finding guys that can handle the velocity of his throws is key.  If they can't corral them, the tips that happen become easily pick-able at times.  

 

Something I want to pry out of posters is if a downfield Terrance Williams/Cruz type threat would actually work well with him?  Because I think that's going to be a type of receiver a lot of people want, but it may not be the best fit.

If Rivera is that tied to Shula and Rogers, then he can pack his poo and leave town with them. Those two clowns HAVE to go and if Rivera can't see that, then honestly he has to go too. I hope Rivera can see it.

improving newton's mechanics, consistency, accuracy, and touch will do wonders for any receiving corp who plays with him.

It wasn't neccesarily that last years WR's core was better. It just had pieces that complimented each other. Having Ginn and Smith's savy made last years offense more vertical than this one was.

 

This years squad has too many guys of the same skill set. Cotchery, Avant, and Bersin are players that serve the same function. Philly is decent, but he's young and it's a lot to put on a UDFA to beat Richard Sherman on a go route.

 

Had we kept Ginn and Steve Smith to team with KB we would have  hell of a WR core. You'd have the always open redzone guy in KB, the deep threat who gets yards in chunks with Ginn. And finally Steve Smith to make the clutch catches with YAC ability.

 

Right now we just need a guy with hands and speed.

[Wanderlai]

and Bersin too right?

Can't get rid of our Jordy Nelson or Wes Welker...

This is true but you also have to recognize his eventual ceiling and what work best with him.
