Tate is out there catching everything is our KR and PR.... unless he gets hurt hes probly here again and again
Young guys don't get many reps. but so far all these super college returners we brought in and thought might supplant him have failed. More important than big yard returns is safely getting that ball back into your QBs hands.
Core won't get cut for Bennett or Erickson either Xeno. I like Alonzo Russell better than both those
guys myself who is bigger and more athletic for the future. Kumerow has to show he can block cause
Wright already has. That is the big thing. ST's is where that last player gets a spot.
Definately agree about Tate, sure hands keep him here most likely unless Alford can show he has
them. Doubt he gets enough tries to show it though anyways.
I don't see Core getting cut with his speed, hands and ability to get deep. Similar to MLJ alot actually
but bigger. Just needs to crisp up his routes. I am hoping Kumerow shows the ability to block on ST's
cause i love his upside along with Russell's.

If Core doesn't have a pattern of drops I think he'll beat Kumerow out.
I see Erikson in a battle with Wright for one of the remaining spots. It will depend on how healthy Wright is. If he returns to his 2014 form it will be hard for Erikson to beat him out.
So I see us with a final receiver corps of Green, LaFelle, Boyd, Tate, Core and Wright. Tate will almost certainly be on the final roster.
This Erickson guy sounds intriguing. Sounds like a quick Slot receiver behind Boyd if he can show some
on ST's. That is the key to everything, Simmons will pick his guys in the end.
