He's almost 25 and basic fundamental things still aren't clicking

I think AT gets traded at the deadline and Moore comes up from the practice squad (if we can stash him) and that’s our final WR room 

I think the Huddle dramatically overvalues AT in any trade scenario. 

He has high value here because we lacked any consistent, reliable options. Also he had great chemistry with Bryce. 

He isn't going to be a good fit for a lot of teams/schemes/rosters.

I would say Renfrow may be on shakier ground than most simply due to health. If that hadn't been the case, I have no doubt he would be a lock.

Yeah, probably true.

Renfrow’s health really was all tied to a diagnosis that got figured out.  It’s not like he is  is the Clemson variant of Jaycee Horn where he can’t stay healthy.  

Renfrow to me is just niche play.  Do you want that or don’t you in your O.   To me to historically doesn’t fit Canales but it would be ideal for BY’s natural play style.  What hurt’s Renfrow the most is they paid AT to hog up slot reps.

Of course, but he is a good fit for a few (49ers for example) and injuries happen. I don’t think we’re getting a 2nd for him or anything but I could see us trading him for a 6th round and cap relief then rolling with TMac, Coker, Horn, XL, Moore, maybe Renfrow

kindof depends on our record at the deadline and how Bryce and co are playing.  If its all gone to hell then move what you can, if we are clawing our way in it then keep status quo.

No good team that would want his “skills” wants 10 million cap hit for Ricky Prohel to come off the bench.

Horn should make it for special teams as a return option

I thought about that. Not sure about his punt return skills though.  He didn't do a lot of punt returns at Colorado.

He could fetch a 4th or 5th round pick if he's not already IR'd by the trade deadline.

To me, if it comes down to making a tough decision you gotta think about the future. We aren't competing for a SB this year. We're trying to drag ourselves out of the cellar while building toward the future. If you have to make a cut at WR that you don't want to make I think you have to cut the 35 year old who was already considering retirement. Hell, let him announce his retirement to save face but then process the paperwork as a cut so he's still paid his guarantees.

I could see it if a legit contender is in a pinch at WR.

I was convinced it was happening last year until he blew up his hammy.

I love Coker but to write XL off because of a fight and not see how he has improved yet is rather insane to me right now.

Tune in this week for totally different hot takes, heroes and bums.   Such is life this time of year.    All it would take is XL housing one, Renfrow alligator arming a ball, Moore being clutch and the huddle will redo the depth chart quicker you can imagine.
