Please let these Colt McCoy rumors be false. We need another playmaker on offense and Gilyard is going to be the real deal. Watch some of his college highlights it just screams Carolina Panthers at you, im not kidding. Not too mention he's a good return man..forget Tate, this is the guy Carolina has too get. Best part is we may even be able to trade back alittle and still get him since theres a lot of talent left.

Just curious what's everyones knock on Gilyard? It's not like the guy doesn't suit us in more ways than one...We need a playmaker, not another possession receiver..

I like the guy alot.....but I just have always liked Golden more. I can see how Gilyard would be a better fit here, however.

Skinny, average hands, average speed. Desean Jackson without the 5th gear.

I completely agree on not trading up for a QB, and i would rather take Clausen if we were trading up, not McCoy! But again, i dont want a QB, Tate, Benn or Gilyard would make me happy at this point...But knowing Fox and what we have lost this offseason a trade up likely means defense..

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
