Would Gallup be better if he gained 12 pounds and became our possession guy?

[3rdEyewarrior]

He's always been just ok at everything. He has the game of a physical possession guy but the weight of a deep threat. he's never fast enough to consistently separate. He's also not big and strong enough to consistently catch in traffic. he should play at 212 . he'll be better at catching in traffic. he doesn't seperate anyway. the strength will make him better at jump balls and fades. he'll be able to fight for the ball better over the middle and it'll help his blocking. He's about 197 and still can't separate deep unless a bad corner bites on a sluggo

213 would be better.

So, if the receivers aren’t too short, they are too skinny now? What’s next….they need bigger hands?

 

[Jipper]

His hands are the issues

 

[3rdEyewarrior]

I see him as a poor mans dez. He's just 25 pounds lighter. the size would really show case his skill set

 

[3rdEyewarrior]

I don't see it happening so give his targets to cooks and Tolbert.

 

[CATCH17]

I’d prefer if he just catch the ball.

 

[jblaze2004]

So he probably will loose even more quickness? Idk if it worth the risk lol CB’s already stuck to him like glue.

 

[calicowboy54]

213 would be better.

i’m partial to 223

 

[DanTanna]

Sooo you want him to get slower, get even less separation, and have a lot of fat in his hands that ruins what grip he has?

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

213 would be better.

You are so wrong. Me analytics department says 211.4, but you won't listen to me, will you, desert chap?

 

[big dog cowboy]

he should play at 212.

213 would be better.

Do I hear 214?

 

[Mk2_Cowboys]

He got hurt and changed . It’s happened to many players from RG3 to Dak .I remember him being healed but still tentative about paying.

 

[ShortRound]

213 would be better.

211 for me, you're all wrong here.

 

[Praxit]

..he can run,dodge,skip, jump..etc. But has problems with catching the ball. That's elemental.

 

[Mr_437]

Gallup being the size of Tony Pollard probably wouldn't help, maybe been healthy n confident would suffice.

 

[leeblair]

Gallup is NOT a possession receiver; he won't fight for the ball.
He may have been good at one time, but he appears to be gun shy in traffic now.
He is a liability.

Well said. The big issue is the offense on passing downs will not be CONSISTENTLY good enough against the playoff caliber defenses with Gallup unable to beat man-to-man coverage. The book is out and it's pretty easy to see that based on how teams are playing us. It makes sense to sprinkle in more of Tolbert or Turpin to mitigate Gallup's ineffectiveness in the 3WR sets.

This!!!

Dude blew out his knee and is a jag now.................the old Gallup aint ever coming back.

 

[Bullflop]

Gallup's performances have been subpar so far in 2023. He must return to his old self or be allowed fewer reps. That's the only way it works.
