MrBobGray Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Still can't help but wonder how big a difference EQ would have made. He's a very plus blocker so we don't lose anything there, but a better athlete than Kumerow and a much more polished receiver than MVS. A three man front of EQ, Lazard and Adams isn't a bad group at all if EQ takes the year 1 - 2 jump. Couple of big bodies that can sink their hips and a guy you can't cover off the line. Probably still not a great receiving corps but feel it would have been a lot more consistently productive. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadmus Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I'd love Ebron and Robby as much as the next guy, but I'm not sure how realistic either or both are. What Gute really needs to do is target at least 1-2 high-upside, low risk fliers at WR and then supplement with the draft (if we can get a stud FA awesome-- I'm just saying this needs to be the bare minimum in terms of FA moves at WR). UFAs Rashard Higgins Tajae Sharpe Both have been buried on depth charts and/or lost in anemic passing offenses. I'd also watch the following RFAs: Tim Patrick David Moore Keelan Cole If any of those players aren't tendered or tendered at the original round I'd consider any of them. Gute needs to do more than add 1 WR in FA. They don't all have to be bona fide studs, but it would be nice to add some pieces that could be dependable #2 or #3 options--- and I think all of those guys are capable of 600+ yards in this offense. I mean, Aaron Jones was 4 yards away from being #2 in receiving yards behind Adams--- that certainly needs to change. Also if Marquise Goodwin gets cut (and he will)... and he still wants to play. He could really help stretch the field for pennies on the dollar opposite Adams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the building, there had to be no expectations for kumerow, and low expectations for Allison. Did anyone outside of GB fans and staff have any expectations about MVS? I remember last year some of us were intrigued by EBS too. EBS might end up being the better of the two but we won't know until next season. We should be more disappointed with Allison than anything. Don't be surprised if he is cut MM doesn't come calling in Dallas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be surprised if he is cut MM doesn't come calling in Dallas. MVS is a huge disappointment. I think Gute clearly was counting on him to continue his solid rookie play and become a key contributor. The guy shat the bed. There were a few comments this year from LaFleur about practice habits, and Rodgers quickly lost confidence in him this year after relying on him much more as a rookie. Year three will tell the tale .. I wouldn't count on him being anything more than a #3 or #4. Outside chance he doesn't even make the team next year.

PossibleCabbage Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I half wonder if MVS's struggles were in part due to an injury that didn't keep him off the field, but did keep him from being effective. A la Davante in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KManX89 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I hate to be that guy and I know this has next-to-no chance of actually happening, but *if* by chance the Cowgirls let Cooper hit the market (and I do realize it's a very remote chance, but you never know with both Dak AND Amari's contract situations), should we go all in on him? Adams and Cooper would be one HELL of a receiver duo. A-Rodg would have to be licking his chops at that point. Plus Sternberger may have shown enough flashes to where we can afford to gamble with him as our starter at TE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A la Davante in 2015. How long are we going to do this though? It's been a few years now of "well maybe they will develop more next year." Just my opinion, but MVS had all the chances he could ask for this year - started the year as the #2 behind a top 10 WR who draws a ton of attention, a few weeks as the presumed #1 when Davante was hurt... And he did zero with his opportunities. I'd be happy to have him as our #4 or #5 WR next year, but that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not sure you can make the argument in good faith that MVS got a bunch of chances. Through Week 4 he was at: 16/28 217 yards/1 TD. Extrapolated out over 16, that's 64/112/868/4 Then he didn't get the flag at the end of the Eagles game, resulting in a game losing INT and Rodgers decided they weren't friends anymore. In Weeks 5/18 he was at 11/29 243 yards/1 TD. He never saw more than 4 targets in a game except for the final Detroit game where Rodgers: Overthrew him on a wheel route Threw behind him on a slant Threw one to him while covered that got deflected Thew a completion to him wide open on a 3 yard out route. Completely misread a coverage and threw it out of bounds Overthrew him on a post route Threw a completion on a wide open drag route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, there will be other WR's coming to town during the off season via draft and free agency. MVS will have one last chance to show what he can do in preseason but that window of opportunity for him was this year. He's going to have to step up or step out.
