Need some help with WRs

[CyberB0b]

Jarvis Landry.

Quick, precision route runner, great hands. Smaller guy. Produced with bad QB play.

I don't see any FA WRs that I would want to give a huge long term contract; however, there are several that would be good to have if the price is reasonable.

I would look at:
24 JAC Allen Robinson - Missed 2017 with injury and his team has to re-sign another starting WR (M.Lee). Maybe a 1-year prove it deal.
24 LA Sammy Watkins - He loves our new WR coach. He didn't have a big year statistically which might keep his price reasonable.

Don't know Allen Robinson but very familiar with Sammy. He's never been the savior some thought but he's a very good WR. I'm on board with him at the right price. Not sure what that price is but his cap figures are ok with me as they are.

I'm all over Landry but he's a possession WR. Look at his YPC. Productive though. What are you going to do with Dez ie where does Landry fit in this group?

 

[Alexander]

Tell us about him please.

That guy got his name backwards. Don't let him confuse you.

 

[Alexander]

Calvin Ridley at 19.
If he is gone...DJ Moore,Maryland in the 2nd Rd.
other options beyond Rd 2
Simmie Cobbs,Indiana
Anthony Miller,Memphis
Cedric Wilson,Boise St
Parris Campbell,Ohio St

D.J. Moore.

Think Steve Smith.

Draft him. Prosper.

Dez is gone in my scenario.

Figured that out long ago.

D.J. Moore.

Yeah, a bit taller otherwise comparable coming out. He's got a long way to go to be mentioned in the same breath career wise.

Dismiss him if you wish. He is that kind of player that nobody cares about because he does not fit constructs.

I didn't dismiss him and if you read the entire thread I'd already compared him to Smith. At least I mentioned Smith somewhere.

 

[beware_d-ware]

Landry is a slot guy - we've got plenty of those.

Allen Robinson is a jump-ball receiver just like Dez.

The only guy who I think actually makes sense is Watkins.

Probably the only FA we need although I like Landry. Moore and Ridley are two I'd love to have. I'd draft two WRs unless we score big in FA.

We should be able to get speed at WR in R2-3.

Not the elite speed we want we won't. The Will Fuller's of the world don't last much longer than around where we pick.

How fast must they be?

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

How fast must they be?

The NFL is full of 4.4 DBs. In order to get the consistent downfield seperation Dak needs the WR needs to be in the 4.3s like Fuller.

Dak's lack of ability to place throws downfield means he either needs quick underneath WR or guys that can get consistent separation and give him leeway.

Marquise Lee is one of the most under rated guys in the league. The guy can flat *** ball.

I'll take that speed but you get as much separation with route running.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Should have signed Mohammad Sanu last off season. This year the hot name is Jarvis Landry.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Sure but not consistently unless they are uberelite route runners with OBJ quickness. You single cover 4.3 speed and don't get a good jam you will see consistent separation. Throw in route running and it's over. You need a 2 deep zone and a buzzing LB to stop it.

I just don't trust Dak placing the ball downfield. IF we cannot get a speedster the Miles Austin prototype we've gone with for 20 years doesn't help Dak.

Mike Evans is not the prototype Dak needs. He ideally would want an uberquick route guy like OBJ or an uberfast guy like Will Fuller. Those guys do make it to 19 or thereabouts but I don't see them in the 2nd much less the third unless they are a project. Projects don't run routes pretty much by definition.
