Plus we have Auden "Megatron" Tate

Yeah, but none of the young WRs have done much of anything on the field except for Boyd. Even when AJ and Boyd were both injured, none of the WRs stepped up to fill the void. Uzomah was our 3rd string TE going into last season and he ended up out playing all of our recently drafted WRs.

Boyd 1,028
Green 694
Uzomah 439
Mixon 296
Bernard 218

Maybe one of those young WRs will step up and become a starting quality WR or maybe they'll just continue on as they have so far.
