Great players fall every year Eox and we see them ending up having great careers.
Sure, Lafell and Boyd are also good blockers but they don't have the deep ball speed that Core has that we needed terribly
last season. When he got time it opened up the Offense. Lafell or Boyd don't scare the Safeties, Green, Ross, Malone and
Core do though.
Honestly i think we keep 7 receivers and if we don't there is a Lafell trade somewhere.

Not saying he is the second coming of AJ or anything like that. Time will only tell, when they put the pads on, if his offseason was good enough to make the squad.
If last year was any kind of indication, 7 receivers are needed, especially needing some speed at the lower end of your line-up.
Spot on Sandwedge.
Speed and physicality is what Core brings, only AJ Green brings both in our WR corps.
