Cotchery's Situation


davos

Recommended Posts

So I'm already starting to see a lot of depth chart speculation and there's some mixed opinion on Jerricho and thought this would generate some conversation. 

 

 

Now last season, Avant began it as the shiftier 3rd option for us outside of Cotchery and Benjamin.  We had guys banged up early, then Phill and Bersin looked respectable early.  Brown had a 7-66 game week 3.   We cut Avant after it looked like Philly provided adequate support in this department/and/or for other reasons.  The WR structure from there on out was Benjamin-Cotchery with Brown.  Bersin was the 4th option.  So my question is how do things roll out for Jerricho?

 

The given:

 

WR1-2

Benjamin

Funchess

 

Slot/3

Ginn/Brown?

 

4-6 Competition

Cotchery/Boykin/Hill/Bersin

 

PS

Byrd/Presley/etc.

So..how are you reading this receiving corps?  Is he worth keeping or would you have it so we could see what we get out of Boykin/Hill? Or is this something we kinda figure out in preseason?

He may be kept as a veteran presence but I don't anticipate him getting much playing time at all. Won't be higher than 4 on the current depth chart. Wouldn't be surprised if he's cut though. Just have to wait and see.

We are keeping 6 WRs max. The Vin Towers start. Keeping Ginn and Brown to run go routes. Boykin plays Special Teams, so he stays. Last spot is between Hill and Cotchery. If Hill has improved, he's the guy. Sorry Jerricho, it's not your spot to win, it's Hill's to lose.

Considering that Hill couldn't even crack the 53 with the WR corp that Carolina had last year, I'd say it's nowhere near his job to lose.

It probably is. The #6 WR usually doesn't dress on gameday anyway, that's why I lean toward Hill right now. It may very well shake out differently in camp, but until then, that's how I see it. Keep Hill to either suit up or keep working on things. More upside with him than Cotch.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
