Need Bourne why?? Even K Boutte is showing that he's better you overate Bourne he's a scrub.
I don't know what you aren't grasping. Bourne is a JAG. We all know that but Bourne is the only one who even seems to have an ounce of maturity in that receiver room.
Boutte hopefully is turning a corner maturity-wise but he has had issues going back 5 years now all the way through college.
Demario Douglas was openly pouting early on in the year and *****ed publicly and may, or may not, have been one of the guys who Bourne called out for "staying out late and eating whatever" as we saw he was battling with alleged food poisoning.
KJ Osborne somehow has the gall to basically call out the team after the game for the harrowing circumstances he had to overcome when he learned he would be active late Saturday. That also leads me to believe that one, or multiple, receivers (Baker and Douglas) were out late doing things they shouldn't have been doing and Baker was the scratch instead of Osborne but who knows?
Then there is Jalynn Polk who was apparently viewed as a character guy from what I remember and has been anything but since he arrived here. From his dumb comments in camp about how people "shouldn't root for me", to the social media crap, to publicly rebuking his coach's comments only to go out and show off his "best hands in the league" with multiple drops. He has been a mess. Many surmised we passed on a guy with better physical skills, in AD Mitchell, because he was a head case. Mitchell isn't exactly lighting it up either but at least I haven't heard a peep about him being a pain on the ass in Indy.
Tyquan is the forgotten man who probably won't be on the roster by the end of the year unless some of these guys are shelved or traded.
Mayo has handled this group about as poorly as he could so far. Didn't really seem to nip Douglas's crap in the bud which potentially opened the door for the rest of the group to follow suit. He hasn't really seemed to do much in limiting Polk's snaps no matter how big of an ******* he is and how many times he drops the ball. Then the cherry on top for me was Mayo basically saying Osborne can talk to him if he has an issue but he has a right to free speech or whatever nonsense he used to justify a bottom of the roster guy calling out the team on social media. We need all hands on deck in that receiver room and if Mayo or Tiquan Underwood aren't going to discipline these guys or hold them accountable then Bourne is worth far more than a 5th round pick to me.
