If Hubbard balled out they wouldn’t have made this trade. 

Hubbard was always a gamble because he had questionable hands. I'm afraid that didn't improve for him.

Only saw his highlight reel but he looks like he is big and physical with good skills in open space.

Just Here to pledge my support for @TheMostInterestingMan in this thread WR war.

I just posted as soon as it was reported. So did everyone else though it seems lol

McAdoo will use Shenault in similar ways the 49ers use Deebo and Falcons use Corderalle Patterson

from what ive seen he has only missed 2 games since coming to the NFL. Is that correct?

If you read up on Twitter the takes from Jags fans who know all about him it's a mixed bag and this is just part of that full picture he hasn't missed many games because he's only 23 but he's been banged up. This is a boom or bust trade and for a late rounder I'm obviously fine with it but I'm not going to put blinders on and assume every Jags fan is being a hater ya know.

How anyone can say this guy wasnt worth a 6th/7th blows my mind.... The jags fuging blew it last year on how they used him. In 2020 they used him to his skillset.... take a look for yourself:

I've been following Shenault since his years at colorado. The guy when used correctly can be as elite as Deebo. The post above has an awesome video of what he brings to the position you rarely see in a single WR.

@Mr. ScotI keep thinking about that play that i called out in that other thread where Chuba dropped the ball after Baker threaded the needle... Shenault running that route is going to be money.  I love this move bc I think McAdoo is going to have some plays drawn up for a player like Shenault, and also this helps alleviate pressue on the TE shortcomings.

My guess would be it started with McAdoo, so yeah I'd say he's got ideas.

He the closest thing we will have to CMC if he gets hurt again.  That had to play a factor in the decision.

I think the NFL is converting to the "Wide Back" model could play a role here. You can thank Shanahan and McVay for that.
