Do we have an unknown WR on the roster that can step up ?

Is there one on this list that can be a reliable pass catcher ? ( I know about Dural,Johnson)
What about someone riding the pine,that maybe just needs a chance ?
I am not trying to trash our starters on the list, but it boggles the mind that other teams have these no name WR's that can catch everything thrown at them.
(See teams like La Tech, Texas Tech, SMU or Houston, etc...)
What about Fobbs,Minaldi,Lang,Smith or LaBorde.
Can these guys play, there has to be a reason they are on the roster..
What about Kavahra Holmes ? We really don't have the luxury for someone to fully mature.
Thoughts ?

Dural is out for the season with an injury, right? Or was that a different WR who blew out his knee?

Jarrett Fobbs was highly recruited and LSU had to work on him for a couple weeks to get him to reconsider going to A&M.
This is his 2nd season (3rd if you count his red shirt season), and he has to be wondering now if he's made a big mistake.
Still, with true freshmen getting reps in every game, you have to wonder where in the depth chart he must be...

Sheppard.he is still unknown and he is a senior

Dural would have been the guy playing alot, and he would have been important as a guy with some height who can stretch the field. assuming he heals nicely and Leslie lives to his billing, the receivers next year will be way better. We'll actually have 2 tall/fast guys who can threaten defenses and allow Landry and Odell to work underneath. Having that element would change everything.

Armand Williams maybe
Posted on 10/22/12 at 4:48 pm to bopper50
What about the unknowns ?
Williams cannot be any worse than what we have seen so far.

Step up already bruh!

I recall Bowe and LaFell dropping lots of balls early on and they turned out pretty damn good. These guys will get it soon.
Posted on 10/22/12 at 5:30 pm to bopper50
If they're not playing, then chances are they suck at blocking.

Dural was ur guy. Out for season. Holmes plays cb. Attrition has killed this team. Some of those guys are prob on the team because we need squad bodies.
