So is Alex Erickson a lock now?

[CJD]

I think we go 7 receivers now that Peerman is out. Adding Carson or Bronson Hill to the team adds absolutely nothing to the team, so we just stock up in the area that also affects special teams.

Erickson will take Peerman's active spot, leaving the same actives for WR as we would have had we kept 6 receivers.

I don't know what Erickson can do covering special teams, but it's safe to say there isn't a second Peerman type player that is worth an active slot just for covering kicks and punts. I'm sure we could give that spot to Erickson without suffering any more than we already are without Peerman.
