Now that Robbie is gone, who is (or who should be) our #2 receiver?

TMJ should be, if nothing else for eval purposes, though on paper he is also the most talented and is suited to playing on the outside.

There is a case for Laviska, but I think he's a bit slow and not as sure-handed.

Shi drops too many passes.

There is a reason why Higgins has always been a 4/5. He's not breaking any starters down on a regular basis.

Not sure it even matters in the McAdoo offense where it treats Ian Thomas like a legitimate receiving threat. I honestly don't even want to look at the receiving stats for our team right now.

I'll give you the summary from what I've witnessed so far. CMC leads the team followed by our slow ass TE. And that's one of the problems.

We are attempting to use Ian Thomas like a premier receiving weapon. In hindsight, this should have been how we used Dan Arnold. BUT iirc we traded him and draft capital for a off man corner. Thats another story though.

As 4 WR#2... 

If your trying to "replace" Robbie, your actually trying to replace speed. Obvious answer for me would be TMJ w/ his skillset. Keep Shi in the slot. Hell, make Shi the #1 and put DJ in the slot. He might actually get targeted then. 

Never thought I'd miss Joe Brady though...this week will probably cement the next guy fired...the OC

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
