What traits are you looking for in the new WR'S.


WOW!!

I am going to be honest, I am more interested in O-line than WR. I don't think our WRS suck as bad as some of you guys.

Sure some speed and playmaking is always welcome, but building a great o-line eliminates a lot of our offensive issues in one swoop

I dont care or have a preference of what we draft first--- Im sure we will get OT, WR, SS, and others according to the BPA that also represent a need, now or soon.

 

 

Going to THIS thread instead of derailing it,...

 

 

I would think everyone wants a receiver who catches and takes over games like Steve Smith used to.  Fast, strong, big if possible-- but a winner first.

 

In this draft, Jaelon Strong, Rashad Green, Dorial Green Beckham, and some others are different but seem like winners first.

I agree with you to a point, but even at times this season when our OL performed well enough in giving Newton time, we clearly desperately lacked that game changing speedster. Jerricho Cotchery isn't fugging scaring anybody, let's not kid ourselves. Corey Brown is developing, but he was an undrafted rookie, and he's still got to get some weight on in the offseason, he can't keep taking those hits. We need to address this.

ELITE route running and ELITE hands/concentration. Only thing I care about. Don't care about size, speed, YAC, etc. If they have that too, great, but what we need is a guy who can get separation so Cam isn't throwing into a tight window every time and he needs to not drop the damn ball.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
