How would you handle this WR Room for the rest of the season/playoffs?

Cooks, whatever.  Insane drop today.  X-Rays after the game because, why not?

 

The optimistic me thinks that Cooks is still learning the offense and getting tuned to Allen's passes.

Hold open tryouts. 

 

I think @HOUSE @WotAGuy and yourself are locks to make the team, and @Einstein may be a solid addition to the practice squad. 😂

Fixed it and I mostly agree but I wouldn’t trade Coleman. He’s worth more than we’d get but if we do draft a bunch of guys that outplay him than yes you can unload him

 

He is gone after the season. Unless Sean McDermott is fired, Keon Coleman is not a Bill in 2026.

This team’s success is only partially built around WRs.

 

But yet, this thread will get 743 responses. 702 of them with the obligatory “Beane and McDermott and Babich and Brady should be fired” posts. 😀

every thread will have that.   this board's post count would plummet without them

All valid points, but you must factor in Kincaid, Knox, Hawes, Cook and Ty as well.. 

I would like to see more sets with Ty and Cook in backfield at same time or any combination of two RBs .   I think we can create some interesting matchup issues and have shown we can run and pass out of this set.  But gotta make more vertical passes to them.

What did John McKay say about his team’s execution?

Can we just take ‘em all off the field and replace them with extra linemen or TEs that actually amount to more than just window-dressing? Then just run “schnowplow” wedge formations from here on out? ❄️🤔Maybe invent whole new offensive formations using pre-forward pass schemes as inspiration? Talk amongst yourselves!!

Could run wishbone use Gilliam or Hawes as FB mixture of RB combos and Two TE.

I would dress

Shakir

Shavers

Davis

Cooks

Palmer or Coleman based on how they are practicing

 

Palmer and Cooks don’t seem to have the intensity for the playoffs to me. They ain’t gamers, in the old sense. But maybe one of them starts to get their shizz together.

I wouldn’t do Hardman because his value is as a kick returner and Ray is tearing it up on kickoff returns (why isn’t he doing punts)?

 

If Cooks is hurt then you have your answer.  But if Cooks is Ok he has to be one of the 5.

So assuming he’s OK:

 

Cooks

Shakir

Palmer

Gabe

Shavers

This gives you three guys that can get open  in Cooks, Shakir, and Palmer, plus two guys that are great at blocking in the run game in Davis and Shavers.  Coleman is odd man out because he doesn’t play special teams like Shavers.  Coleman should be moved into a slot role next year to try and get something out of him.

 

We all saw what happened yesterday.  When the run game is going Josh can then be much more effective throwing the ball to all his targets (including backs and TEs) and we can put up a ton of points.
