Why I like the Hogan Signing


Steves89

Recommended Posts

Remember how, for three years we complained about how our receivers could never get separation and Cam had some of the smallest windows to throw through? Well, Hogan ranked second in the league last year in separation (https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/receiving/2018/all) Hogan is a reliable receiver with some big play potential and should make things easier for Cam. My question now is who is the odd man out? Or do we keep Samuel, Moore, Smith, Wright, and Hogan? I would cut smith and maybe bring in a late round pick, but that's just me. 

Oh, by the way, while Hogan was 2nd in separation last year, guess who was last.

Honestly, I'm not expecting much. 

Pats fans say he's a good 3/4 option in a passing attack but struggled mightily when asked to be their #2. 

I really don't foresee him getting a ton of looks his way this year. Players in line to see more targets than him are CMC, Greg, Moore, Samuel, and Wright. In my mind, he's 6th in line to see a target. 1 or 2 a game. Hopefully it was a relatively cheap deal and we can save some money by moving on from Smith.

We'll see.

Funny stat. Just got off the Pats board and all they were all saying was he couldn't get separation last year. Hope their all clueless. Few did say he and Brady just weren't on the same page. Superbowl LVII 6 catches 128 yrds. Tells me he is at least clutch.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
