Obviously they're really impressed with Erickson and think he'll be a significant upgrade, otherwise Tate would be back for his 6th season. For that reason, I'm pretty excited to see what Erickson can do. I'm still worried about our WR depth, although Tate didn't offer much there himself. At least Erickson could possibly have some potential there.

I think Erickson could provide some value in the slot if Lafell ends up not working out and we play Boyd on the outside more. Or we could just end up lining up Core for a lot of deep routes in the vein of a Chris Henry type role with AJ and Boyd on the field. Either way, though I'm worried about experience, I'm definitely not worried about our talent at WR so far. It definitely wouldn't hurt to be on the lookout for another vet WR if Lafell continues to sizzle out.
