Let's see if he will be their #1 WR or start and do well once season starts.

I see a lot of WR's tear it up preseason, then get cut, end on PS or never play much.

But, I do agree speed is not everything. I love Boyd and he is not a 4.2 or 4.3 guy.

1. Willis
2. Tate
3. Core
4. Malone
5. Morgan

Five guys fighting for three spots. 

AJ
Boyd
Ross
Erickson

Right now, i'd put Willis, Tate and Malone on the roster and stick Morgan on the PS. Core and Malone are kind of interchangeable on the list but i'd take Malone over Core (personally) at this point.

Core - Has no PS availability so either cut or traded

Morgan - We have yet to see him play one down against 1 first or 2nd team defense and what has he shown? To me, not near enough to be considered for anything other than the practice squad

To me, the only guy that has jumped out of Willis, Morgan, rookies and non 53 man guys.

Tate has had moments, I think he won a spot, but based on his 2nd year on team and things he has done both years.

Malone many say cut, I say maybe after AJ is back, but who has the true athletic ability to be a #1 WR? Core last year failed the test. Tate can't get separation. Erickson is a slot receiver. Ross???? Well maybe if he is healthy. Morgan - Nope

Willis - Maybe
Malone - Mayybe

I think it will honestly come down to the defensive cuts.  Due to the strong DL play, I can see them keeping only 5 CB's with Dennard going on the PUP to keep 10 DL.  That means you need one of the WR's to play ST's early in the year and Core pushes Willis or Tate off the roster.

But I believe Core not Malone is AJs backup

Agree Willis will be a hard cut and likely makes the squad

Tate I believe has made the team.


Boyd would be the #1 till AJ Returns   if you mean #1 in targets....

He's a stone cold lock to make the roster.

Tate
Willis
Morgan
Malone
Core.

Willis has shown a natural ability to go up and bring the ball down.
Morgan hasnt hurt himself with good route runnin and good hands.
Malone hasn't made that leap yet
Core has peaked and has no upside
He can play special teams but so can Tate

(08-22-2019, 01:47 PM)rfaulk34 Wrote: The only thing i disagree with is Core pushing either of them off due to STs. Either of them can play and Core, when you look at his numbers, isn't really anything special on teams. 

And i will admit, i give more weight to what they can do as a receiver so i'd be willing to adjust on special teams, somehow, if one WR can give me more than another on the field.
