Gettis Vs Lafell

as rookie's LaFell looked to be more complete.

LaFell is coming off a strong 2nd season. I think he has potential to really make progress in year 3 (which is big for WRs).

I think Gettis will be more if a situational WR running his deep route.

I think LaFell has the better season next year as well. He came around the last few games and although I think Gettis is going to be a stud, LaFell will have the better year next season.

Smith, LaFell, Gettis, ? , ?

We have a good 1-2-3 punch at WR next year. Going to be interesting to see who fills those final 2 spots.

I think LaFell will have an incredible year next year, also.

I think the mix of receivers we have are very good.

Smitty is electric, can do multiple things really well, and is a true leader.

LaFell is strong, bulky, can make routes across the middle, and can block really well.

Gettis is fast, runs a really awesome deep route, and provides someone who can take the top off the defense.

I personally think Gettis is getting lost in all of this because he has taken a year off.

I like both LaFell and Gettis and not going to get caught up in the numbers. Both will have similar numbers IMO.

They are different types of receivers. Lafell is a possession receiver while Gettis is someone you put on the outside for mismatches with his speed and size.

I would like to see Gettis & Lafell do some "Off-season" workouts with Cam. I know I heard Cam is going to be "working" like normal until the Superbowl. Maybe Cam's LEADERSHIP in this area will bring other guys in, that could use a little extra work for the upcoming Playoff run next year!

Anyone think this is possible?

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
