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.

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
