fistfullofbeer Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 1 hour ago, Golfman said: We've got three guys who are ENTERING their second year. All have a ton of upside. The second year is the biggest leap a receiver makes and these three are going to light it up. Kumerow and Allison are very capable of contributing as well. Our WR position is the least of our worries. Lets hope you are right and some of them do make the leap. It would be nice to take some pressure of Adams. Also, would be nice if Graham actually started being more productive in the red zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaireAlex Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Our rookies contributed like round 2-3 picks last year. Good kids who will step it up imo, all 3. Moore is on record for taking the blame on not having the mental game down. With AR this is a very good group. Graham and Lewis will both be better imo. Better line -- better protection and run game. Everything is pointing up imo. Could draft a tackle and WR next year. Those will be spots to most improve just as guards, future TE, and 3rd RB were biggest needs this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's stretching the defense? Trevor Davis is our fastest WR. This is sad. Davante Adams Edited April 28, 2019 by Gopackgonerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindsight analysis at best. Outside of TE, which was an obvious add due to the combination of the strength of the class and the age of our vets... neither of those positions were screaming needs... they were selections based primarily on value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaireAlex Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 You are correct. Could have just as well addressed RT and WR this year. And MLF said they were happy at RB. Only immediate need: shoring up the interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the May 7th rule means teams that are concerned about the comp picks formula, won't sign vets till after that deadline passes. After that date , FAs don't count in the formula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping our young wr's in year 2 bust out and our te's contribute even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the rook receivers will be fine imo. Don't forget that MLF plays more TE than MM. He will run more too. Jace and Graham will also take slot reps (and Allison). We have no small guys except the Teo Redding kid. Edit: missed Moore in there Sorry Edited April 30, 2019 by JaireAlex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
