I don’t see it taking very long before Coker supplants himself as the firm #2 option in the WR room. It’s a crowded WR room, but he’s easily capable (IMHO) of a 700 yd 8+ TD type season. 

Very possible. But, I think TMac and XL both have much higher ceilings than Coker. Will they get there is the question.

Hoping they become the next Fitzgerald/Boldin combo

We don’t need him this year. Put him on IR for the year and let him study behind Theilen and Renfrow. Next year, he may have a legit shot at playing time. 

lol bruh we’re one of the laughingstocks of the league. We need all hands on deck.

Who of these guys is he playing above?

TMac, XL, Theilen, Coker

If none, then he’s WR5 at best. I can see Renfrow also getting PT before him, especially if his hamstring issue lingers. So what’s best for the team?
 

Roster Horn as WR6 or keep him stashed and use that roster spot elsewhere?

lol. I’m hoping Bryce becomes Tom Brady and Johnathan Brooks becomes Barry Sanders.

I’m feeling 4000-30TD+ Teddy B vibes or 1000-8TD+ TMJ projections.

Hoping XL and TMac turn into a fringe HOFer and a first ballot HOFer is crazy talk. I don’t know if it’s the haven’t had a winning season since 2017 or never having back to back winning seasons, but this place is comical when it comes to the overrating of our players.

Horn isn't about position on the depth chart. It's the things he can do that others can't. If he develops to one of our best WRs even better

I don't think we'd drafted a WR sixth round without a "particular set of skills."  (Do you guys get Liam Neeson's TAKEN movies down under, or do you watch Crocodile Dundee movies over and over?)

I don’t want him to be cut. I’m hoping he’s the heir apparent at slot.

Coker is a 6-3 215 possession WR at this point.  He had a near 70% catch rate and was really good in contested catches situations.   He is pretty sound fundamentally, and he seems to be very intelligent and self disciplined.  As the fourth WR, he will get his opportunities and I see him more of an AT II if XL and TMac develop as expected.  BEHIND him (at the moment) we have Renfrow, Horn, and Moore.  The bottom line is this:  WR depth is usually based on the confidence the QB has in you.  When the game is on the line, the QB will find the guys he trusts.  For example, Mingo and Marshall did not get many balls--you could say they were not getting open, but it could also be they had not earned the love.
