We will keep 5 or 6

Hurns
Williams
Thompson
Beasley
Switzer
1st or 2nd round pick
Maybe even another later draft pick

Thats 7 right there.
Which 2 or 3 does he beat out?

Big bodied receiver who's best trait is battling for contested balls. Similar skill set to Dez, but not nearly as athletically gifted. I think we all hope he can make strides, but needs a lot more reps in the offseason.

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but my got feeling is Noah Brown will be the next stud receiver for us.

I’m hoping he gets a legit opportunity in training camp to earn some PT.

Would be nice but that may be a reach. The WR group will be fine as long as Hurns doesn’t completely fail and the rookie WR they draft, 1st or 2nd round, doesn’t bust.

Hurns needs to give you at least 800-900 yards. And hopefully the rookie adds another quickness/speed dimension to the WRs and gives you 600 yds or so. It’s important that the coaching staff also finds a way to get Beasley and Switzer on the field together.

Above all, the OL and Zeke will stir the drink.

His playing style/build reminds me of that reciever James Jones... Green Bay had a couple years back. Not going to fill Dez's shoes, but might be good for a few hundred yards and a couple of TDs this season, with more playing time. But in order to do that, he will have to beat someone out for a spot on the 53.

There’s a better chance he doesn’t even make the 53 than being a #1 WR here.

IDK what.to think of Noah anymore with this wr situation anymore. I wanted him to take over T Willy's job, but then Hurns came. Then Dez left and I don't know how this wr Corp works at all. I Think brown has potential but he's not gonna scare anyone right now. All I know is that with this coaching staff ANYTHING is possible lol. I'm too drunk for the afternoon.. damn

Noah Brown ran a 4.55 40 yd dash. Dez back in 2010 ran a 4.52 40 yd dash. Both times are considered average for an NFL receiver. I don't see how a young receiver can become elite if he runs "average" speed and has "average" quickness which more is needed to create consistent separation from faster and quicker DBs?
The vast majority of great receivers have similar speed as well because there's a whole lot more to being a wr than speed. Guys with that power forward size generally run around 4.5 and use their builds to post up for the ball. Route running and explosion out of their breaks is much more important than a straight 40 yd speed. Some guys get faster after the first 40 yds, like TO. Irvin - 4.55, TO-4.63

If they don't draft WR it would say a lot ... he has Dez qualities plus blocks.
