Also, that someone would know that he will be available shortly for no picks. Remember, this is a guy who, just a few months ago was complaining that Cam Newton messed up his stats! He's a bum. HE'S A GREAT MAN, A GREAT PLAYER AND YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS * * No he's not, no he isn't, and you likely aren't. 1

I disagree completely with nearly the entire premise of your post. Part of the reason our QBs are struggling is because we ignored WR in the first place. Yes we disagree. this fan base has been screaming about WR's for a good decade, yet when we did have some they never performed, why because the QB's sucked. WR's dont make QB's, that never works. The WR's are bad and should be addressed in FA and draft. Look at DT's contract....another one year rental but at a really high price. It just makes no sense for this team other than to put butts in the seats. the QB has to be able to process what happens after the snap and throw in rhythm, with anticipation. Allen has not shown that and if he did he would throw for over 200 yards per game instead of 133 with the guys on the roster now. Get younger/more economical choices in the offseason. This season is toast. Who should trade for DT? Someone trying to win the SB, not a rebuilding team. 1

Like who? Tyrod? Dareus? Watkins? Darby has been decent, but I dont think they miss him 1

Jobot Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 I don't see anyone parting with very much. If we can't move him, I honestly think it would be better for the locker room to just cut him. Guy doesn't run routes hard, not aggressive, below average hands... I don't understand how Mcdermott can preach effort and character and then have this be your #1 receiver.
DuckyBoys Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Just say no to acquiring aging wrs Those quick fix band aids are for contenders not a team trying to lay its foundation
Soda Popinski Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Beane is twisting his nipples at the thought of more dead cap space....

I don't really care how the WRs perform specifically if my offense is functioning effectively. Sammy had the best year of his career in 2015. He definitely performed, and it was in an offense that used terrible pass concepts. Second, look at our offensive performances when we did have WRs and as the WR Corps deteriorated: 2015: (Watkins, Woods, Hogan, Goodwin, Harvin for like 3.5 games) Offensive DVOA: 9th Passing DVOA: 12th Rushing DVOA: 2nd 2016: (Watkins for 8 games, Woods, Goodwin, Hunter) Offensive DVOA: 10th Passing DVOA: 18th Rushing DVOA: 1st 2017: (Jones, Matthews, Thompson, Benjamin) Offensive DVOA: 26th Passing DVOA: 28th Rushing DVOA: 19th 2018: (Benjamin, Jones, Holmes, McCloud) Offensive DVOA: 32nd Passing DVOA: 32nd Rushing DVOA: 24th

You need to also consider the QB and coaching (offensive coordinator/system) which are more important. If you also list those out in the table above it will show other factors contributing to the results. The way this reads you pick WR's and then you have a good offense. Talk about forest and trees....come on.

Talk about forest and trees....come on. QB, OL, and RB/TE were essentially the same for the first 3. Playbook was the same for the first 2. The change to Castillo & Dennison was certainly a factor, but removing players that require the defense's attention and not replacing them is the biggest issue.

billieve420 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Not seeing enough creativity from Daboll to manufacture offense while Allen gets up to speed.

Has a lot to do with how receivers are able to run their routes and gives the QB time to throw accurately and on time. I always liked Sammy more than KB, but doubt he becomes the player he is now if he stayed on the team. Woods was just a solid WR with exceptional blocking ability, too solid to not deal for resources in a rebuild sadly. Edited October 24, 2018 by ctk232

He could definitely help a WR needy team (possession/red zone) looking to make the playoffs, assuming a team with a competent QB/OC. He's obviously not motivated to play here and could be used to better advantage elsewhere. A 5th could be a reasonable expectation IMO. 1
Iamkrgr Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 The o-line is the starting point of our offensive problems. Not enough time for the qb, not enough space created for the rb. Its been a weak spot since Woods, Incognito and Glenn haven't been replaced with equal or better quality. This offseason the o-line needs to be a major focus.

There were different OC's every single year dude. Lets just agree to disagree.

Maybe a 7th rounder at best, I don't even see that happening. A team was dumb enough to give us a 3rd for Tyrod taylor and a 5th for AJ McCaron, you never know what other GM's value. Didn't we also get a pick for Marshal Newhouse?
