Big WR

[Cdparr7]

When is the last time we had a “Big WR”. I watched those fade passes to Terrace Marshall and scratched my head. He is the tallest WR on the roster at 6’2”. 
 

We have Preston Williams on the practice squad at 6’5”. Tommy and Ian are 6’3” but we really don’t have a “Big WR”.

Marvin McNutt is 6’4 and still only 33 years old. Fitterer better get on that phone ASAP!

i agree. a redzone target is always needed. we dont even have a true redzone te target.

Well we used to have TE's for that.....

Bring back Julius Peppers.  He probably could still outjump most DBs and he's well into his 40's.

Wait. Brock Bowers is coming in 2024.

It's nice to have a taller receiver but it isn't a necessity anymore. Besides we tried this with the likes of Benjamin and Funchess and both ultimately proved to be useless.

Benjamin was a monster. He was just lazy. He was absolutely a weapon and not useless.

Work ethic, attitude; all most likely stemming from life unrelated to football kept him from the player he could have been.

True, Buffalo is up there with their lot of 5'9 and 5'10" WRs running circles around people in the end zone. Gettleman and his damn basketball team strategy at WR cost us Devin Adams and Stephon Diggs. 

And this thread is noodles, two better throws and that's two TDs to Marshall.

We should trade Atlanta for rookie WR Drake London. He was a phenom at USC and has hands for sure. Atlanta doesn't target him too often, but he will be a #1 soon. We should snatch him up before that happens on another team, especially a rival of ours!
