The only chance for Core to make it is (a) if the Bengals decide to roll with 7 receivers...which I see as unlikely, or (b) if Core beats out Erickson, but I also see this as unlikely considering Erickson just lead the NFL in kick return yards and was 2nd in yards per return. Add in the fact that Malone is essentially a a better version of Core, and I just see Core as the odd man out if we roll with 6 receivers.
I usually always agree with you Shake but not here. The Return game is being phased out of the NFL whether we like it or
not, Core is a much better receiver than Erickson and is a deep threat. Core is a much more physical blocker than Malone
or Erickson and is just as fast as Malone and is not a rail.
Core will make it on ST's alone and is the better receiver at this point than either of these two and is also much faster than
Boyd and Lafell.
Core will make this team and if the coaches have to roll with 7 receivers to do it, they will.
