How do you judge these wide receivers when they are as erratic as Shavers and Shakir, making some great catches and then dropping easy ones?

 

Tommy Doyle sure has bad luck. I hope his knee is not destroyed again. 

 

You just evaluate based on "most upside" and ability to "make plays". The answer is Shakir

Only 59 targets

36 catches , 570 yards, 15.8 ypc, 3 TD plus has an all pro as a returner 

He was allegedly wanted by a few teams and came here for less $.. He's definitely going to have an impact

That’s some hall of good commentary there

 

Hall of Fair maybe?

Incidentally that composition is titled "Entrance of the Gladiators."

 

I know... hard to believe.

Was hard for the receivers who played with Kyle Allen to have an impact. He was absolute garbage.

Hard to blame Kyle Allen for ineffective punt returning.  While also saying Shorter showed nothing.

No one standing out so far apart from James Cook. 

You don't think anyone on the O-Line stood out?

Is it just me, or does Murray glide like FredEx?

He's a lot taller than I thought. Almost looks like a wide receiver.

Do we keep 7 WR’s? 
 

Diggs

Davis

Sherfield

Harty

Shakir

 

Shorter

Shavers / Isabella / Ateman / Patmon

Why do we have to keep Harty? Related to finances?

A decent way to start things. Can't wait to watch the re-run.....I think tomorrow morning on NFL Network. 

I'll wait until the 2nd half when Barkley is at QB😎

How did Richardson look for Indy?


IMO not good.

 

Boneheaded INT early on while under duress. Some off target throws. He threw a few good check down balls and one very nice 20 yard strike. 
 

I think it’ll be a long year for him relying on the ground.

Shavers seems to only be helping his case to make the team. I saw him getting snaps on ST but couldn’t tell you if what he did was any good. 
 

Don’t really care if Shorter was a late round draft pick. Keep the guy who makes more plays. 


This.

 

This team has to be done with unreliable potential. WR 4-6 can’t drop balls when open. If they’re stashing these guys because of raw athleticism or measurables, do it on the PS. We are in a position where rostered players need to be able to contribute if called upon. 
 

Hanging onto Shorter or Shakir because they could eventually be a decent WR3? Pass. Give me the best guy now, as the next year or two we are likely going to be investing heavily in pass catchers

I thought he looked like a guy with a strong arm that made a bad play early and kept playing.  He threw nice dropped TD as well.

Shavers dropped two of the five passes that were thrown to him. One, I’ll admit was the lousy Allen pass that got intercepted, but the other was right to him.

It’s not unmovable money but it’d be a surprise to take the hit. He’s also some of the last elite speed on the offense with Hines hurt.
