WR's next year

A lot of people are concerned with our wide receivers next year but I think they're gonna be a position of strength. Sure, they had the dropsies early on but that seemed remedied late in the season. We all saw Jarvis Landry's potential late in the year and Odell was top 20 in the country in average yards per catch (at least 40 catches). We just need to get some solid blocking up front and get the ball in these playmakers hands. Plus, if Leslie comes in and Dural comes back from injury. I think we could have one of the best groups of receivers in the SEC. We just gotta cut them lose..
What do you guys think?

Not concerned with our wide outs, I just hope our line can hold up long enough for mett to sling the rock. They looked like complete shite against clemson

Very true which is why I'm hoping for a coaching "shift" (because i think that's all we can hope for). Stud to OL (exclusively) and bring in an OC (Cameron maybe). Probably won't happen though. But I expect massive improvements on the line anyway. Two true freshman were starting together on one side. They will be monsters by their senior year and should be markedly better next year. I just hope they don't switch Alexander to LT since Faulk is leaving which is what I've heard they're consider... OLine is key next year.

WRs are the least of my worries right now tbh. I have confidence in Landry, Beckham, Wright, and Boone.

I like our returning 4 for the most part, anything we get from newcomers is gravy.

Miles runs the sorry arse excuse of an offense we have, so it really doesn't matter.

I think it should be an open contest after Javiers Landry.

I think the only thing that matter is the receivers catch the ball. If they play like the did late in the year the Tigers will be fine. If they start out the first 5 games with 20 some drops again, we will struggle offensively.

Well I don't know any Javiers on our team but Jarvis should be WR2 Leslie should be WR1, Dural WR3 and Landry in the slot. If the line holds form than we should do plenty four receiver sets with Mett in the gun and either Hill or Blue to one side of him.
Avery J would be backup to Landry(hopefully) and Boone backup Leslie. What I really hope is Miles sticks Beckham in the slot where his quickness and shiftiness can do the most damage. I would also like Brazil to be his backup.

QB needs quicker release, better footwork, and to get rid of it when pressured. Do those things (which all good qb's can do) and the sky is the limit for the offense.

so you make a joke about the guy misspelling Jarvis, but you then put Jarvis and Landry in your grouping of the 4 top WRs (assuming you meant Beckham instead of Landry). and I guess you just put James Wright out of the 2 deep.

We desperately need size in the WR corps. I thought it would be a weakness going into the season and it turned out to bigger than I thought. We need some newcomers to provide immediate help. Leslie not being here in the spring is a huge loss.
Anybody know if Dural will be ready for spring?

Which doesn't make sense with our offensive philosophy. With our style of offense you would think our staff would be recruiting Michael Clayton type wide recevers.
