That's my point you would dress 3 wr on this roster if 1 of the 4 were injuredHogan, Mitchell, and Amendola all missed time last year. If you have WR5 on the PS, then you only have three WRs dressed, or you have to release/IR another player to add WR5.
I object
I say you can get Austin if you can convince the Rams to eat some salary.
I'm convinced Foster is just too small for the NFL
Does "too weak" work then?Foster: 6000/195
Lewis: 5080/195
Amendola: 5110/190
Edelman: 5013/195

An NFL team cannot pay part of the salary of the player they are trading, the way other sports such as baseball do. The only way to get around that would be to rewrite the contract before the trade by converting salary and roster bonuses to signing bonuses.
I would love a guy like Hurns, although I don't know what your definition of "cheap" is.I agree that Carr should develop. That means snaps and targets in real games. The big question? Can he beat the DB off the line like JE. I worry about Dola if he can hold up.
Unlike many, I see Ealy as a value the more snaps he sees. Perhaps they found a niche for him now. He might be the player that Easley was supposed to be as an internal line disruption.
I would opt for Hurns if he can be had on the cheap but can he play the "quick slot" that the Pats use? Hurns is tall 6'3" and lanky.
Here is an interesting trade. I am sure he is available but his CAP number this year is high.
How about Tavon Austin? 58 catches last year with a rookie QB, and 28 runs with 5.7 yard average. He is also a punt returner with almost 375 yards last year, He's durable. 4.3 second 40 (Patriots WR will have mega-speed). He sits behind Cooper Kupp on the depth chart and the Rams added Watkins. Rams have needs on D line (hold out+injuries) and with some of our new members (other than Ealy) maybe a trade works? Malcom Brown? He has been invisible for three games.
A five receiver set with Cooks , Austin, Hogan, Dola (Mitchell) and Gronk?
I say you can get Austin if you can convince the Rams to eat some salary. They also have the youngster Reynolds.
Austin is only 26. JE will be 32 upon his return and Dola older.

I am surprise DW Toys hasn't mentioned CJ! He did work out for the raiders.
I'm surprised that people still buy into the "we'll just make a trade and plug/play" at the position of WR, after all of these years. If they did choose to do that, they'd have one helluva project on their hands for a long time. Perhaps that player could realistically contribute after the mid-point bye week down the stretch and into the (hopeful) postseason.
