I'm good with it either way I suppose. I think our answer at WR is in FA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Olave isn’t coming out my guess is that he didn’t get a 1st round projection from the advisory board which means we could’ve maybe had in the 2nd. Having Terry, a FA WR opposite him and Olave in the slot would’ve been impossible for opposing offenses to stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Olave is the next Keenan Allen write it down, you heard it here first. Scouts don’t have him projected to go first round this year and may not next year bc he doesn’t have 4.4 speed but all he does is make plays and make tough catches. He’s an exceptional route runner with great hands. Think Terry McLaurin with 4.5 speed instead of 4.35 speed like Terry had. Olave’s production has been great the last two years and he does it off of precise route running, not bc he’s running a 4.4 or lower.

The one guy who is good in the slot is fuller and we don't seem to want to play him there. Moreland is a press corner but JDR seems to love off ball and zone variations despite having personnel that doesn't play that well. We should consider making a run at Mackensie Alexander. He can play slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly that’s what I was saying to E about getting Samuel and if a player falls that signing doesn’t detract your decision it just gives you the bonus of really fortifying a position and you truely get BPA in the draft instead of not signing someone then reaching for a player lower then waddle based on need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure, and both Waddle & Samuel are capable of playing outside too and doing other things with them as well as far as lining up in the backfield, running the ball and doing jet sweeps. It would be awesome if we signed Samuel & then Waddle fell to us. I really think there’s an even greater chance we sign Samuel now bc not only did Rivera coach Samuel but Hurney drafted Samuel in Carolina. It’s probably as close to a sure thing as you can get in FA that he ends up here given all those connections. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I feel like that’s a real shot unless he proves himself out but I think this offseason he actually might become a steal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re talking about Waddle, he’ll also be hurt bc there won’t be an NFL combine. I think there’s a real chance he falls to us at 19. I just hope we have the balls to pull the trigger despite his ankle injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
