Parker was the #1 option and only put up those numbers. Like Brown as a #2/3 option.of course the Pats are interested in a guy who's production mirrors Davante Parker.
We’re hopefully chasing after bigger fish (Ridley, M. Brown, G. Davis) but that WR room needs an absolute overhaul. Douglas and Smith-Schuster (only because of contract) are the likely roster locks. I like Brown as a Bourne replacement. Need a higher end guy and a draft pick to take Parker’s spot.Brown makes me think of a Belichick receiver. Tough kid who can block
I actually like Brown, but if this is who we are chasing to make improvements , we are in big trouble
Pissing out a kidney stone.Can we get blood from a stone??
holy I was making a point regarding Thornton.Pissing out a kidney stone.
That's what I'm saying Pape I say pay Ridley he immediately improves that area we have too many #3 and #4 WR's masquerading as #1 and #2 that's why we suck on Third downs. We have nobody who can get free when the clamps are on.Noah Brown doesn't move the needle... We have a wr room full of 4 catch/40 yard type guys...
We need to revamp the offensive philosophy surrounding wide receivers on this team... Need to be targeting guys that can get more than the average...
With every good player tagged, start looking at guys like Calvin Ridley

Get a real WR I am sure Wolf is not blind.Noah Brown doesn't move the needle... We have a wr room full of 4 catch/40 yard type guys...

That's what I'm saying.Also when it comes to Noah Brown, he doesn’t move the needle as a top option, but he’s a pretty good #3 outside option.

Douglas
Smith-Schuster
I don't get all the JuJu hate. He looked ok in a couple of games near the end of last season, I haven't heard anything negative about his health/recovery, so I expect him to play like he did at KC in 2022. Not a game breaker but a solid possession receiver with good YAC. Plus we're tied to him financially.I think Juju dead $$$$ will be a little more palatable next year with the cap increase I have a feeling he's going to royally suck again this year thanks former GM.
Juju will cash those checks but he won't live up to those $$$$$$. Thornton and Boutte what has history shown us?? I don't have either making the 2024 squad Juju will be here but it's not by choice.I don't get all the JuJu hate.

otoh I've seen enough of Parker and hope they can trade him to get him off the books (probably for no more than a 6th for 7th swap in 2025).
Thornton? It's within the realm that he has a breakout year, so that's a wait and see. Similarly, Boutte is a question mark - he showed some potential early last year then totally disappeared, but he could show up and sieze a spot.
So the net of all that is we have under contract 2 keepers who are good/not great, 2 question marks (50% chance of having a career), and one we need to trade away. We need to add a good FA like Ridley, a high quality draftee in the top 34-60 range, and a mid rounder to that mix.
260 yards is that what $10 Mill gets you these days??I don't get all the JuJu hate.
