Why not? The only person we are missing from last year is Henderson. Morgan pretty much proved he can fill that role. Stills will be a solid #2/3 guy IMO.


We could've used help last year too. If Colston or Moore go down you're relying on one of those guys to step up and play a crucial role. Morgan proved he could run real fast in a straight line and catch 10 balls in 14 games. Toon and Stills are question marks as they haven't done anything on the big stage.

That gives us Colston/Graham/Moore/Sproles as our primary targets and Morgan/Roby/Stills/Toon/Watson as back up.



Yes. And another good WR gives us another threat as well as opens up the field for those other guys to flourish. Meachem and Henderson played bigger roles than people give them credit for.

They are professionals. That's what they are paid to do. That's what Morgan did when Henderson went out last year.

Sounds like he's a Meachem clone.

Agreed, but at some point you have to give them a chance the same way you did with Moore and Colston.

How many WR can we carry? If you sign someone else, one of those WRs aren't going to make the roster. No way we have Colston, Moore, Morgan, Stills, Toon, Graham, Watson AND another WR.

I can't disagree, but it's time for the next man in line to step up and fill in.
