Watkins is hurt every other week. He isn’t dependable.

With Adams off the list, I'd take any of these.

1- Jarvis Landry MIAM
2- Allen Robinson JAX
3- Sammy Watkins LAR
8- Donte Moncrief IND
9- Jordan Matthews BUFF
10- Terrelle Pryor WASH

Jarvis Landry, one of the best of not the best slot in the league. Adding him along what we have now would be unbelievable... a man can only dream lol

Would solve our 3rd down issues instantly.

I have zero hope for nabbing JG.

I think we are definitely going to get a true number 2 wr or te this off-season one way or another.
If we want to have our offense really humming it's a must

I hope you are talking about him being a top 10 draft pick and not top 10 NFL WR. Dude has never been top 20 WR since he's been in NFL. Honestly, he's a mild bust when you consider how loaded that WR draft class was


There are not 20 WRs better than Watkins. And I’m talking purely the talent of the WR

Dude put up numbers in a shite offense in BUF with Kyle orton, EJ Manuel and Tyrod taylor.

People constantly make the mistake of judging a WR without looking at the outside factors, particularly offensive system and QB

This offense needs someone with some juice. That guy isn’t Michael Thomas. He’s great in his role, sure. But still has only 1 TD over 25 yards, longest catch 46 yards. Watkins can catch and run, or take top off the defense. 9 TDs over 25, Y/R 15+ for his career

And

What if I told you that Sammy Watkins is younger than Michael Thomas ? Younger!

I predict we will use our 2nd pick whether it is our 3rd round or likely trade up into 2nd for a WR.

Christian Kirk would be insane in this offense. Speedy guy who would complement Thomas very well.

Add Graham back and this offense would be insane once again.

Assuming we go FA route for a WR the guy is going to need some juice to open up the passing game again.

at least 4.4 / 40 speed is a requirement

Jordan Matthews
Donte Moncrief
Paul Richardson

any of the above would be big time reasonable gets that add spacing to every other WR on the roster

Sammy Watkins I don't see leaving LA after they packaged a pick to acquire him and with him and Goff already showing a decent connection.

because Snead will still be cheap and in a true contract year I would bring him back and chalk this up as a fluke season only because he has been successful here before with us. I would give him until TC to fix himself and show us that he is back.

While adding a pass catching TE sounds great the market dictates where you go to fill needs. Might have to draft a TE.
