going into games. Considering the fact cooks can be a mismatch piece we'll carry all 5.
My problem with this core is they're small. Colston's the only one who's both big and worth a roster spot.

That's what Graham is for. But I hear you. I'd like to have some height at wr as well.

Ben Watson is also a very good option at TE. He's on the field with Graham sometimes

Although I agree, I'm assuming with cooks being drafted, toon is good enough to play a significant part.
toon (if he can get rid of the dropsies) is 6'4.
colston is 6'4
graham is 6'7
Stills is 6'0
Morgan is 6'1
Cooks is 5'10
Other draft options we could actually obtain:
OBJ - 5'11
Matthews - 6'3
Lee - 6'0
Benjamin - 6'5
Moncrief - 6'2
Robinson - 6'2
Landry - 5'11
Ellington - 5'9

IMO he's poo and is closer to being cut than playing a significant role. Not sure if he's even Adrian Arrington.

I remember Shockey coming in, screwing up and not doing the little things that got him practically bench before he turned it around.
Toon has the tools but just needs to be reliable to CSP to see some playing time.
And I hope the light comes on for him in this camp or else he will be close to being gone.

Was referring to game day, yes.

FO said they're still high on him. He got separation, but the issue is him not being able to haul it in. Let's not compare him to Arrington now

I think the thing to remember too is last year was basically his rookie season. He showed ability but has to show consistency.
Not every receiver comes in gang busters like Stills did.

no one mentioned the PFT story
There were a couple of big obstacles to Morgan getting another job. One was a 2013 DWI charge that carried possible jail time if Morgan was convicted in a trial, but that no longer appears to be an issue. Ramon Antonio Vargas of the Baton Rouge Advocate reports that Morgan has entered a diversion program that will employ monitoring, counseling and other social services to help him avoid future trouble instead of going through a trial.
--------------------
hours after that they offered him a contract
The kid could have MVP potential if they teamed him with someone like Dave Concepcion.

Toon was very consistent and dependable every time i saw him in Wisconsin games. I think the jump to the next level has just been a steep one for him. Wouldn't be surprised to see him get an increased role this year, especially with that kind of height.

I just worry he's a headcase.

it's from back in the day
The Big Red Machine is the nickname given to the Cincinnati Reds baseball team which dominated the National League from 1970 to 1976. The team is widely recognized as being among the best teams in baseball history.[1][2] Over that span, the team won five National League West Division titles, four National League pennants, and two World Series titles.[3] The team's combined record from 1970-1976 was 683 wins and 443 losses, an average of nearly 98 wins per season.
The nickname was introduced in a July 4, 1969 article by Bob Hertzel in The Cincinnati Enquirer,[4] but gained prominence in reference to the 1970 team,[5][6][7][8] which posted a regular season record of 102-60 and won the National League pennant.[9] Rookie and future-Hall of Fame manager Sparky Anderson headed the team,[10] which at its peak featured Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan (1975 &1976 MVP) and Tony Pérez, and was supported by Dave Concepción, George Foster, César Gerónimo and Ken Griffey, Sr.
