Sure if we want two number two wr's again.

Any wr that we bring in via free agency, trade,  or the draft has to check one of two boxes:

- Be a bona-fide number 1 wr or  have undeniable deep threat speed and can use his speed to get open.

If you bring in someone like Jordan Matthews which I've seen suggested or draft a Courtland Sutton we're basically in a worse situation than  we had with kb/fun fun. At least KB produced when being double covered and bracketed. Can't say the same for anyone we bring in if the fit the mold of a number 2 wr. 

Underrated option that might be a cap casualty would be Emmanuel Sanders, he's not the youngest guy anymore but he's consistently open and has great hands.

2 number 2s again? When tf have we ever had 2 number 2s? Funchess and clay? 

 

Would absolutely love crabtree no idea why he’s being slept on and shouldn’t be too expensive at this point in his career

I don't care about this mystical "#1 NFL WR" bullshit. Just give me NFL caliber WR. Right now Funchess is the only proven one that we have.

True which is where Emmanuel Sanders falls in he's not viewed as a number one but is constantly winning on the outside. Cbs rarely get the best of him.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
