Just to give some background on these guys:
John Phillips- The oldest of the group (30). Known for his blocking. Only 390 yards (55 catches) in his career.
Larry Donnell- The most accomplished receiver, with 623 yards and 6 TDs in 2014.
Jace Amaro- Massive bust as the Jets 2nd round pick in 2014. Released after only 2 seasons.
Gavin Escobar- 2nd round pick of the Cowboys in 2013. Played very sparsely behind Witten. Known as a good option in the red zone (8 TDs despite limited opportunity). Struggled as an in-line blocker though, despite his size.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
