Compared to Laquon Treadwell who only has 21 Rec for 215 yds in two years for a first round guy is head scratching

The Vikings have been hit or missed on drafting WRs

So drafting Pitbull productive guys is not a science after all. Who would have thought.

Not so bad. Bersin has been clutch also. Not much to say about YAC, but he is MUCH cheaper and I cant think of a single pass he has dropped. Dude needs more reps!

I can .. At least 2 I know lead to a pick..

Jairus Wright had 18 receptions in total.

Guess how many were converted to 3rd downs?

13. 13 third down conversions, 2 TDs.

From what Vikings fans are saying, he's the guy to go to when your TE1, WR1, and WR2 are covered, as he'll always work his way on crossing routes and find a way to get open for that clutch 3rd down.

While I do expect him to be more a depth/situational piece, I do like the idea of a reliable possession receiver with some speed on this team.

 

I believe we're looking at his numbers without looking at his situation who has been his qb the last 3 yrs? I'm guessing (from highlights) Ponder/TB/CaseK/SamB outta those guys which one would anyone put in Cams category? From down the field arm strength to just taking deep shots I can see him making plays down the field more then we think. His speed with TS speed doesn't leave a lot of help for a defense. With a good OC we should take advantage of mismatches.

People should remember how horrible this team has been on 3rd down in the past( and red zone). This isn’t a flashy signing but the guy will keep the chains moving and keep our offense on the field

This is a big addition adding pieces that directly impact our deficiencies.

Can both be on the field together?? Than its not a relief situation.

Yea I def expect that not a relief more like addition to help him have more space you have to watch Wright with that speed in the slot, CMC moves all around with options routes gonna have a lot to prepare for.

I assume you are speaking of balls that hit him in the hands and he didnt catch? Not errant passes to him that were short/high?  Not to say you are wrong, but please remind me of the balls that hit him in the hands that led to picks.

Just not seeing the upgrade to Bersin yet here, but it could happen. Maybe Jarius just needs a shot. Time will tell.

Really??   This dude has done in 1 year what Bersin hasn't done his whole career.  What are you talking about..

He had one last year against the Saints that hit him in the hands when we were driving to score.  I love how you ppl remember the 1 to 3 catches he maker a year ...

cool. Ill go back and find the game. Do you recall, was it the first or second game?

 

P.S. I love how you refer to us as "you people". Is that meant as a racist remark? Dont be a racist or bigot. Also note over his career his yearly AVERAGE is 8 per season over 4 season. ( not 1-3) Small agreed, but if you care that much lets look at the targets. 

Seriously though...not going to argue that much. My point was we have a clutch guy on our roster. One who barely gets s snap, but when he does...he makes it count. Dude only had 8 catches last year. Small....but 128 yards! A guy with sure hands that would be a star in a place like N.E, or even Green Bay. No other receiver on our team averages 16 yards per completion, so i am not sure why the guy gets so much hate.

Basically Hurney has blown this offseason. 5 million to a kicker, which looks bad now. Trading Worley for an old WR while not doing enough research on the replacement and pulling a Gettleman with no backup plan in place. Signing a DT that wasn't a need. On top of not trying to work with Kalil on restructuring and for the love of god why is Shepherd still on the roster? We still going 6-10.

i see the hurney blowers in full force.

Wow 18 catches all year. That was worth the money he got, sounds like the Panthers. I think Shepherd might have had a couple catches with TB before he signed here. Man this is so depressing!!!

I agree, I wanna see the targeted #s on 3rd down

Like it or not your #1 receiver is Funchess. He really balled out and showed, IMO more upside than KB plus room to grow. He played tough, played through injury got good YACs and really took control of his new role. Can't wait to see his progress this season.

Wright and Smith both have some speed and hands and provide great veteran insurance for the oft injured Byrd and Samuel who left holes at WR last season and Cam had to rely heavily on CMC to compensate. Both guys have the potential to become legit #2s. This offense will look a lot different and we'll have enough guys to step in.

They're doing a great job so far stocking the cupboards, not mad, still got my popcorn ready.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
