You can tell if the guy's a "player" or not. I sometimes worry about Lazard, but I really think he’s been asked to block an awful lot so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gotta get that fixed ASAP. I remember last year when our first drive was an automatic TD… this would be a good game to get that feeling back 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a lot more from him with Tonyan out. Isn't Deguara basically a rookie? He only played in 2 games last year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t worry about MVS’ being dynamic, he and Aaron haven’t been connecting much. It hasn't helped with MVS out 5 weeks this year. 🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norse65 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I believe MVS will be an ex Packer next year. The Packers have seen his hands and ball tracking up close for four years. He will not be a priority resign and they will have a long list to resign or let go. If he could catch like Jefferson does on long balls he could make some money. Same for Lazard. When they become FA they will no longer be the cheap option. I expect to be drafting WRs like we did four years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen any investment at the WR position since Davante Adams. I've seen some shots taken, low round picks invested. But we haven't tried to take a top 10 receiver in a draft class since Adams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refugee Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Leader said: Hopefully better. Our return for investment is lagging. Pretty low investment at that position. Amari the highest at late 3rd. I don’t know who we keep but Lazard seems to have rapport with Love on and off of the field. He should not break the bank even if we pay him a bit more than min.

In theory....with defections etc....Lazard could become our WR1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idt Rodgers has been sharp all too often this year. Some stretches sure, but overall I think he’s playing fine but idt we’ve seen his best yet.

Zycho32 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Fascinating note; the shift from taking a WR within the top 100 picks to taking late round fliers(Amari might be the lone exception) coincides with the change from TT to Gut as GM.

Joe Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Suffice it to say that we're going to draft another WR on Day 2 in this upcoming draft regardless of whether or not MVS or Lazard would be on next year's team. Even if Adams were to return, we've seen very little out of Amari Rodgers, we don't know if Funchess will be back, and then who do we have left. Certainly an area to upgrade at worst. That said, we're still an IDL away from calling that situation perfect IMO and EDGE needs to be addressed; sure, those street guys have been ok but we can't expect sustained success with those players regardless of how you feel about them.
