So D.J gone..need WR's badly

[Basbear]

Been looking around, its slim pickin'

Both the FA and draft dont have the star level. Like a bunch of mid-2s.

Its not going to be easy. 

I originally wanted to use the 39th on a edge(yea i am a BPA stan), just wanted to add a stud and thats a fair/good spot for this draft. The other spot when this pick happens- WR

 

fyi Shenault was dealt form a fellow that frank should use a similar system, so........ buckle up it maybe a rough go for the next 2 years on the WR front...

 

the pre-tag 2024 WR looks insane, tho.

Shenault is far more effective after the catch than DJ. Check out stats from last year if you think that sounds off. 

Why would I care about comparing Shenault to Moore? This is about Moore's profile as a receiver, and he most certainly is profiled a highly elusive YAC receiver. If you want to deny it, go ahead and look blind.

Every highlight, every draft profile. In his rookie year we used him quite often as a running back in gadget plays.

Trade for Tee Higgins. I don't think the Bengals can afford him, Burrow, and Chase.

With what? The 2024 first round pick?

Shenault: 0 receiving TDs in his last 14 games

Sounds like a franchise WR to me

What do they do. They need the guys to catch the ball no matter who the QB is. What do you think they do...  FA or draft or both.

You can go on lamenting over DJ. I liked him as a player, but he’s not a game breaker. Of all WR1s in the NFL, DJ probably drew the least (or close) amount of angst from opposing DCs in prepping for games. 
 

He’s a low tier WR1/excellent WR2. You give that up every time if you think you’re getting a franchise QB in return.

You remember that great catch and TD run against the iants?

Sure do. Also remember Dwayne Jarrett's great TD catch against them.

I have a feeling we will go after Hardman aggressively.  Reich said before he wants speed at WR.  Hardman is young and fast, and a great route runner with a crazy ypc. 
 

Add Hardman and a pass catching TE like Shultz or Mike G and this offense is dangerous.  Throw in a true pass catching back like Williams or Sanders and look out!

You're talking to a person that predicted he would be traded to the Bears, months ago.

If you want to post D.J. Moore's stats in relation to other receivers, go ahead. It's not going to change the fact that it's going to difficult to replace him. Tee Higgins would not be cheap and most likely not directly replace his production.

The posters were discussing YAC. Here’s the top 15 in YAC per reception last year:

Derrick Henry was #1 at 11.7. 
 

Shenault’s #??

 

12.2

 

He’s more dangerous than DJ with the ball in his hands. I’m not arguing he’s better before or at the catch. I do think he could solve our RB hole though.

Why can't he score?

Need to fast edit that zero then bro....

I will say this- frank and doug seem to run similar systems, best I can tell. Doug gave away Shenault for what choosen anderson got after his value with less than zero....... Panthers may need to find another WR along with a new #1. 

Id tell Shenault to put on 15 clean LBs and hes my new hybrid RB ala deebo patterson....

He could be cut, I see that too....
