The more I keep looking at our receiving options, the more I keep asking myself if there room for Coleman.


Deshazier says Coleman will be our #2 over Thomas

I like Deshazier but I don't trust his opinion on actual football matters. I used to read his articles back in the day and while they are very well put together and you can tell he puts thought into his work, he just doesn't seem to really know football more than a casual fan.

Coleman couldn't even be any better than fourth most of last year, only moving ahead of Colston in small doses.

Cooks is "one" and Snead is "two". Coleman is at best the third guy at receiver but I don't see him staying ahead of Thomas for long. That may be over with by training camp.

But while I'm not big on Coleman taking on any more than a 30 catch role I'm also not crazy enough to ignore how much Payton likes him and will give him every chance to keep that fourth receiver spot.

If someone wants that spot they are going to have to go Snead in preseason.

About the only thing I like about Coleman's game is his size.
