Just a look back at all the complaints people had about drafting receivers earlier in the year. People wanted 2 players in perticular...

Mardy Gillyard - 6 rec 63 yards.

Golden Tate - 20 Rec 224 yards...

Our recievers...

Brandon Lafell - 38 Rec 468

David Gettis - 37 - 508

Hey, I think we did an okay job at the reciever position this time ;)

you cannot compare teams in different scenarios like that. Why dont you compare Danario Alexanders last 4 games to LaFells? wouldnt be as pretty of a stat probably

Different situations? these teams have no WR and better QB's... they should be doing much better than Lafell and Gettis with what they are working with under center.

Not when they are not the #1 and #2 Wr's for games, #2 and #3 for others and have to take most offensive snaps.

Put those guys on Carolina teams and ask them to be #1 and #2 Wr's I believe they put up similar stats.

Point is, Seahawks and Rams have had receiver problems and if those 2 can't get on the field with what they are working with then it speaks better to the two we got.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
