AND last year, only Boyd and Green were productive at WR.
I'm not sure 5 WR's gets our best players on the field. I think Mixon, Bernard, and Eifert are all better than our 3rd WR. So going 3-4-5 WR, actually gets some of our talent off the field for less talented players.
5 wide won't be the norm. The more options they use, the better for the offense but the gist of all that is, the routes are going to help the QB more than anything. Quick release + shorter routes + multiple formations = success. Also, in those 4 and 5 "WR" sets, you can use Eifert, Mixon and Gio.
