WR1 Kelvin Benjamin

WR2/3 Devin Funchess

WR2/3 Russell Shepard

WR3/4 with WR2 Upside: Curtis Samuel

WR5 Damiere Byrd

 

PS: WR Austin Duke, WR Keyarris Garrett

My only change would be Clay to PS.

I don't know if Byrd ultimately gets it but he is ever so slightly in front of Bersin right now IMO. Will see how they make out over the next two preseason games

Good with that, though I think it's at least possible Clay makes the regular roster over Byrd (not willing to say it's likely)

Will depend on what they show in upcoming games.

Second this. I don't think we keep more than 5 WR's since Webb is the defacto 6th WR.

Plus, it gives us the ability to keep 5 RB's (Stew, CMC, CAP, Fozzy, & Darrel Young as FB).  Hopefully we can sneak Armah on the practice squad.  I like his potential a lot.

KB

Funch

Shepard

Samuel

Byrd

seem the very obvious top 5 at this point.

Bersin doesn't have PS eligibility as far as I know, so he COULD be #6, IF we keep 6, or perhaps he gets cut and we keep him on speed dial in case of injuries (I doubt he gets picked up by another team... his value is primarily in his knowledge of our offense and his rapport with Cam.  Don't think he'd be such a desireable pick up for other teams)  With Samuel seemingly on the mend, I'm beginning to think we only keep 5 WRs, however.

Clay is also intriguing for speed / returns.   I think he has a strong case for the PS.

Austin Duke is also possibly a PS candidate.  His being a local feel-good story from the Charlotte 49ers may help his case.

Finch

Shep

Samuel

Bird

Duke and Garret on the PS.

I think Duke & Clay have more upside that Garrett.  I was excited when we got him last year, but I haven't seen enough to warrant even PS unless they want to keep a big receiver if KB or Funchess goes down.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
