Project the WR yardage totals

It wont take MORE passes, but more efficient pass plays....I could see his stat line being 20/25 for 300 yards.  That would imply a couple big plays, but still a good mix of run/pass.  I hate to use them as an example, but the most powerful steeler offense had three really good WRs (and one burner), a really good TE, and a back that could take a check down for 20 yards.  For the first time in the Dalton Era, I could see the same thing happening here.  

I hope Ross puts up 1000 yards but OL play may dictate more running and a lot of short routes. I am also concerned Ross is missing the May OTA's due to not graduating so will he get behind with the playbook and the timing.

I like AD a lot, but he has never thrown for more 4300 yards I don't believe, so again I hope he throws for 5000+, but not if it means put up meaningless yards in losses because we are down multiple scores in the 4th quarter and had to throw more.
