They signed him to a three year deal so I gotta think they expect him to do it at least this year.

Remember too that he played some CB in college, so in a pinch he could probably back that up (and the season will have serious gone off the rails if that ends up being the case). Bennett will be cut or end up on the PS as well.
Hopefully the Bengals cut bait on Tate and turn over the return duties to Alford.
WR corps will be:
Green
Lafell
Boyd
Alford
Wright
Kumerow

Green
Lafell
Boyd
Alford

Tate

My opinion would be,Cody core was drafted In the 6th round, and we took a guy last year in the 7th and he made the team. They also had a 4th round grade on core if you heard the podcast. So with that said I think the locks are, green, lefell, Boyd, and core,unless core just looks bad,they will want to keep him at least a year,and have him for emergency. As for James wright I remember one deep ball to him that's the only thing I remember, he's coming off injury too so they might try to pup him and see what happens. But the oc did mention on how he loves him and said he can run for days and not get tired. I think it might seem impossible but I wish Alford would take rates spot,he has to really shine on returns to make the team. My big wild card is Alonzo russell, I think he's heading to the Ps most likely but I just like the dude,he's a good looking guy (no I'm not gay) looks like a NFL receiver,I've watched his highlights his good plays look impressive but then they mention the drops which is a concern and I seen a video on YouTube where he had a couple easy drops along with a couple good plays. Plus he played for a small school.I'm excited for the competition we will have,let the best men win.since Boyd is going to the slot,#2 slot is wide open since that's not lefells game,our #2 has to stretch the defense and go long sometimes,what I've heard from pats fans that isn't his game,and the pats hurt from it last year when lefell was forced to play that role without their other deep threat guy.I'm cconcerned about our receivers because I like the type of offense that can score at will when need be,we was there at times last year,until I say the Arizona game we struggled some,and then Dalton got injured,now we got new receivers to work with.

Green
Boyd
Lafell
(Most Likely) Tate

So likely there are 2 spots for the remaining WRs to earn.
guys like Alford and James Wright will make it a tough go for these Rookies and CFA's but they do have a shot and there is always PS spots
so i dont think tate is a lock but he does have a leg up..
so Alford
Wright
Bennett
Core
Kumerow
+ CFA's
Russell
And your looking alot of chances for Core not to make it.
Will be fighting it out for them last 2 spots... Kumerow looked good last preseason. Bennett was good at UGA but was hurt last year. They like Wright but hes been hurt. Alford stuck last year so he also probly has a leg up..

Again if core had a 4th round grade to them,they will give him a big shot to make the team,he'd have to look pretty bad not to make it. I don't remember any year we just cut a 6th rounder off my head, we at least give them a year,how is Mario Alford habe a leg up? He's done nothing so far. He gets to beat out Tate for kick returning or he's probably gone he was a 7th rounder.also Wright is hurt and they try to expand the roster by putting guys on ir so they don't have to get rid of them right away.

We rarely see anything out of rookies. That Alford got the seventh spot last year and any playing time at all says they've got some interest in him. Or at least hue did. And grades aside, don't expect to see anything of core outside of preseason.
