Trey Quinn, Travin Dural, John Diarse, Malachi Dupre, Q. Leslie, Avery Peterson.... I feel like we're more complete than last year. As in any of our receivers could be inserted into a starting situation if one went down. I think if not this year, next year we will have the best receiving core in the SEC. The future is bright

meh, I think that losing our #1 guy would have a pretty immediate impact. Maybe not against ULM, but definitely against Mississippi State.

You think we are more complete after losing Beckham and Landry and adding Quinn and Dupre?

If Dural sticks around....next year will be ridiculous.

But they will still be as heck to watch this year.

I'm not sure we're going to see much of Leslie. I wonder if there is talk of moving AP to defense like his brother.

They've proven nothing. Beckham and Landry were great. This thread makes no sense.

I wasn't sold on Dural since he played such a limited role with Landry and OBJ around, but he's fast with great hands.
Diarse was an unknown, but he looks VERY capable with a high potential for yards after catch.
I'm pretty excited about Quinn. He's got attitude and the talent to back it up. He should provide that intermediate threat that people bitch about us missing.
And after Dupre's fade route/td he certainly looks like he'll live up to the billing too. Very quick to the ball. I thought it was overthrown.
Last year we were more top heavy, but this year we have more overall talent, I think.
IMO 3 or 4 VERY good threats are harder to contain than 2 elite threats.

Leslie and Peterson will not be seeing the field at wr, that's evident. I feel bad for Q

We have a corps of WRs, but I think we do have the best WR core since 2006.

Dural - 6'2 deep threat, takes top off defense
Diarse - 3rd down monster, tackle breaker, reliable catcher with great hands
Quinn - same as Diarse, but faster and will be a dangerous mismatch against LBs in the slot
Dupre - redzone fiend waiting to happen. 6'3 with 42" vert. Throw the fade, and watch him work

Jarvis and Beckham were incredible, but there were only two of them and neither had the height of guys like Dural and Dupre.

We have a WR for every situation, and they all look good.

Travin Dural has been impressive, but it's still to early in the season to see if his trend continues.
He's like Rueben Randle with a bit more speed.

As a nucleus of the passing game, 2013 had a better COREof Beckham and Landry. As far as top to bottom threats, this is probably a deeper receiving CORPS than anything we've seen since Bowe, Davis, and Doucet.
