So then, we’ve got a WR corps to build. What do y’all got?

Jakobi Meyers would be a good FA target imo. I also like Thielen as a veteran presence for the right price.

We could go after DHop and Thielen. We could go after Downs, Hyatt, Cedric Tillman in draft. We could go TE in the draft and get Kincaid. A lot of options now. People that think we are actually going into the season with Marshall as our #1 is ridiculous.

Right…they’re not doing all this  to finally get a QB and not surround him with weapons

[Ship]

I truly think Thielen is a must as a vet presence and safety net for the rookie QB. He can still pile up TDs even if he's a bit more limited athletically now.

No to OBJ who could easily turn toxic on a young QB.

I think we add one of Hollins, Campbell, or Hardman. Perfect WR3s.

Then it's rookie time. Ideally we could land a Zay Flowers, but maybe Hyatt or Downs is there. I also like Mims a bit later. Any of those top TEs would be good too.

Let Marshall cook in a new and better offense and let Thielen hold it down opposite of him til a young guy takes the spot.

[t96]

Get 1 or 2 of Brandon Cooks, D Hopkins, Odell, Hardman. And draft one in the 2nd round.

Or could draft a tight end or go after Schultz. Having a top tier tight end is every bit as important for a young QB as a WR.

[Soul Rebel]

I think we can patchwork our WR corps sans a true X WR this coming year. 

Hardman turns 25 on March 12th, so he's uber young and electric. Don't think he's a WR1, but can certainly be that TY Hilton....maybe a less productive Tyreek Hill as our #2. His help on special teams will be huge too.

Let TMJ be our slot WR3. 

Young and hungry guys.

Any chance we sign OBJ? I think he wants outrageous money for his injury history, but who knows. Hopkins and Hardman would be a good start. 

God, I hope not. Drama, drama, drama. How much does he have left in the tank? Not enough for the headaches.

[Basbear]

After too much research, I bring one name to the fold- Darin Walker

Yea it's not a WR, but he is a difference making weapon and rumored to be on the block. Frank also talked a few times about wanting a pass catching TE. 

Send Tremble and mid rounder for walker and a late rounder, that maybe all it takes. Contract was like moores, just signed and three years.

Ive warmed up fast.....

[PappyMay]

I was crushed about loosing Moore at first because I'm a big fan, but now I'm looking at it as how do we replace 900yds and 7 Td's with the $10 Million saved and there are alot of ways. I'm hoping for Geiski or Hurst at TE and then one of Theilen/Slayton/Hollins/ Campbell at WR.  Next year try to get Pittman jr, Higgins, or Jeudy for him.

He had almost 500 last year and didn’t play a good portion of the year. The problem is, at this point, he can’t be trusted to stay healthy.

He played 14 games last year. he has played 27 of a possible 33 games in his career so far. I don't see the issue there. The reason I said 800 is because he only caught 28 balls last season but had an unsustainable 17.5 yards per catch. if he doubles his catch total to 56 at a more reasonable 13-14 yards per catch, he's around 800 yards. the thing with Terrace is that he's not going to run himself open, so he's very QB dependent. he will reliably catch the ball when he's open, but the route has to beat their scheme more than Terrace can beat his man. 

[Chaos]

I get the sense that pairing an unstable, quick to become a malcontent, OBJ with a rookie QB we're going all in on would be a bad idea.

Just say no to Odell

Prospect Summary He should be available in the 2nd Rd 

Andrei Iosivas NFL Draft Scouting Report

WR, Princeton Tigers

Andrei Iosivas is an All-American track star for Princeton with a 6.71 60m and a 39-inch vertical at 6-foot-3 and 200 pounds. If you could build the ideal wideout prospect, it’d look something like Iosivas. He’s a guy who can get his in a lot of different ways. 

Down the field, Iosivas uses his physicality and speed to separate and has the fluid body control to high-point the ball or release off the defender for the back shoulder ball. On his out-breaking routes, Iosivas displays an innate ability to break his routes without losing any speed, making him a matchup nightmare for corners throughout their entire phase. When Iosivas has the ball in his hands his strength and acceleration make him a threat for chunk yards after the catch and has the hip fluidity and foot speed to make defenders miss. To check the final box, Iosivas’ hands are extremely strong—he finishes through contact really well and attacks the ball in the air. 

The only deficiencies I can find in his game is a little stiffness in his bend at the top of his stick and comeback routes. I’d also like to see him be a more competitive and physical blocker on the perimeter. 

With all this being said, only time will tell how well Iosivas will be received by NFL executives. The Senior Bowl will allow Iosivas to showcase everything we’ve seen on film this season as well as answer some questions as to how he fares against the best prospects in the country. I have full confidence in Iosivas to perform well at the Senior Bowl—the talent and unteachables are undeniable and make him a guy that can contribute right away. Down the road, he can potentially become a featured receiver in an offense that prioritizes getting the ball in his hands and allowing him to stress coverages at all levels of the field.
