Shakir is a good route runner as well (not better than Renfrow, you clearly haven't watched much of him) but I'm talking about adding pure slot receiver, elite route runner, someone who always gets open. We haven't had it since Beasley, it's a nice security blanket for Josh and gives us depth so we aren't banking on just Diggs/Shakir/rookie. Expand I have. I have watched a WR that had ONE year that was over his norm of middling between 400-650 yards Shakir had Renfrow stats already last year with less snaps. So YES NO to Renfrow. There are some veteran WRs I could be talked into HE isnt one of them. 1 1 Quote

Expand No, just depends on how you want the offense to function. Once Brady took over, there was a much more concerted effort to run the ball. With guys like Kincaid and Knox, who can also catch passes, having those guys on the field gives you more options and the ability to "hide" whats coming. If we start having Renfrow, Shakir and Diggs in packages, its more likely a pass, which give the defense a slight advantage. I'm not saying Renfrow couldn't be useful, I've always liked him, but it may not line up with with Brady wants to do 1 Quote

To say you "know" that Shakir is a better route runner is laughable. You have to ask what numbers Renfrow could put up in our offense with Josh throwing the ball. And you may not like Renfrow, but to act like he isn't an option is short sighted, he could help us and at the right price would be a great pickup. Quote

Does he play ST like Hollins does? Expand He actually does return kicks/punts (was the primary punt return for a while at Clemson) so can be used for that but his main contribution would be in the slot. We clearly disagree on his value, I''ll leave it at that. Hollins is a complete different position/role, wouldn't affect us signing a veteran slot like Renfrow one way or the other. We are clearly going to draft WRs as well, this much is obvious (and we damn well better draft one in the first and move up if necessary). Doesn't preclude a couple safe vet FAs on minimal deals.

Alphadawg7 Posted March 13, 2024 Posted March 13, 2024 Renfrow as depth would be fine, but he isn't signing somewhere to be depth only, he is going to want to at least have a chance to compete to start, if not come in as the slot starter. I would bet good money he signs with the Chiefs if released because he fits their short pass attack very well and its a spot they need a lot of help on. Quote

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted March 13, 2024 Posted March 13, 2024 I think our offense was at its best with that shifty underneath slot guy, (Beasley) I’d really like Renfro. Josh buys a lot of time and having that underneath guy on 3rd down really helps 1 Quote
