These two are seniors and have seen minimal playing time.

Don't get me wrong, OBJ and Landry are our best two receivers but we are still looking for a third option.

Why not one of these two?

I certainly haven't been disappointed in Wright's play on special teams...

boone and landry are our best blockers at WR. wright has evolved into a special teams beast. i think boone has more of a role in the offense. still early days.

Well he sure didn't look better last night, didn't run crisp routes, his hands are suspect at best right now and definitely did not make smart plays on special teams. One catch he should have fair caught he didn't and fumbled, and one catch he should have let bounce made the catch but damn did anyone else pucker when he did with oh shite not again!!!

Boone, Wright or Leslie would be better options right now. To me it seems like the coaches are trying to force the issue of Dural too much. Can't believe Leslie wouldn't be a viable option. In the one pass i saw him catch last week, ran a good route and sure hands. Dural is not our best 3rd option right now no matter how much the coaches try and force it.

Boone is going to light up a conference foe. Book it. There is going to be a team focused on shutting down Beckham and Landry and he'll be open a lot.

I think you could be correct, Boone runs good routes just has dropped balls in the past he needs to step it up we are going to need him. Because at this point you can bet the defensive coaches are going to try and take away OBJ and Landry.

I'm interested in seeing Quantavious Leslie learn the scheme and get out there and ball.

I don't even know that Dural is better; he just brings height to the table, and that happens to be something we're missing. Also, he probably has more upside.

Clearly this staff has taken the view that they're willing to sacrifice quality now for more quality later in the season.

yes and, frankly, I'm more disappointed that our TE's have been largely invisible.

get better, get ready...get even.
