MLJ has more TDs in 1 season than either of those guys have in their respective careers. MLJ has more TDs this season than Little and Tate have receptions combined. Marvin is more of a deep threat and red zone target than either of them could dream to be.
Let's hope MLJ doesn't miss time opposed to living in a fantasy world where Tate or Little would fill in for him and "be fine".
Guess we just put different emphasis on our 4th receiving option.
Sanu is more than capable of being a #2 and actually has taken snaps away from MLJ this year. So you're looking at replacing our #3 WR and 4th/5th receiving option. We've got Tate, Little, Burkhead to fill the void; hell, we might even get a chance to see what Alford brings in the slot. I don't think suggesting we'd be fine if he missed a game or two as "living in a fantasy world".
This is not saying MLJ is not a good receiver, it is just that we are deep enough to soften any loss that would occur if he missed time
