Which WRs/TEs Are A Lock On Next Season's Roster?

[Proudiddy]

Obviously this is with the thought in mind that we massively upgrade the position through FA and the draft. Which guys would you guarantee a spot on our roster next season if you are Gettleman?

I'm going with KB, Philly, Olsen, and Swole Bones.

[nosuchthingasapanther]

benjamin and olsen.

Benji, Olsen and Philly. Swole Bones will probably be back but I don't think he's guaranteed a spot. Philly may not be guaranteed either but I see there being a 99% chance he's back.

[London Loves Luke]

Stephen Hill is gonna be on our practice roster until 2020

Who would I guarantee?  KB, Olsen, Swole.  I like Philly well enough, and he made some nice catches this year, but not nearly enough for any sort of guarantee.  I know the same could be said of Swole, but I like his potential and I need to see more of him actually on the field before I can form an opinion.

Yeah, for me I see Philly as either the 5th or 6th WR, depending on if we get a guy like Ginn,who ideally is your last receiver but an incredible return specialist. I give Philly a spot contingent on what we bring in... He likely is the first guy I would drop from my list if we get something better... But for now, I keep him and Swole for a lot of the same reasons - versatility and potential,although I believe Swole has far greater potential,hence why Philly would be the first gone from my current list.

Why on earth do you all think Swole Bones is guaranteed a spot? Did I miss something?

I said if YOU were Gettleman.

Swole has incredible potential and talent,he just needs to be utilized. Furthermore, he contributes on offense and ST, and has big play ability even in his limited reps he has seen thus far.

So if I'm Gettleman, I'm holding onto him until he proves he's not worthy of holding onto.

We are the franchise that signed Charles Godfrey to an extension so holding onto a young player with incredible talent to see if he blossoms doesn't bother me in the least.

Benjamin, Olsen, an Philly Brown are the only locks.  Cotchery and Bersin (who is still somehow on the roster) will compete with a rookie and hopefully a FA for the final WR spots.

I don't see it. I haven't seen much improvement in how many seasons now?

Zach Miller just hit FA and Jordan Cameron will too. I'd rather have Ed Dickson near vet minimum and be TE #3 and sign one of them at #2.

-edit- I do agree he should at least get a shot in camp this year though.

[davos]

I agree that it would just be KB, Olsen, and Philly. 

[CRA]

Philly is he caliber of WR at this stage where he only would be a lock on a team with little talent and depth....

So yeah, I guess here he qualifies. But he wouldn't be a LOCK for your average team at WR. He'd be the guy with potential you hoped developed.

That ain't a Philly knock. I think he can become a good WR and our 3 (3 on a good team). Dude is fast and tough. But he isn't "lock" good by a long ways

[rmoneyg35]

benjamin and olsen.

This. While it's best to wait until training camp to ask these questions because our roster isn't complete until after we draft and sign free agents.

Olsen and KB are the only ones a guaranteed to make the roster. Cotchery is old and in the decline. Brown should make the roster unless we sign a few big name WRs and draft some but there's always a small chance he won't make the team. Bersin is far from a lock, even though he can return punts he horrible at it. Stephen Hill couldn't make the team this season but it's all in his hands literally if he can make the team this season. Brandon Williams may be a favorite around here but he has never been more than a #3 TE and didn't do well last season. I feel we will try to resign Dickson to be our back up TE.
