But this 'catch and run' tagline is bullshit.
It doesn't signify what you think it signifies.

It isn't bullshit. Skyy even if he was what he thought he was never projected to be anything but a low depth of target option. So was James. We thought toney could create before the catch but turns out he is best suited for getting the ball in space then creating after the catch. Mvs is more of a run then catch guy but at best he's just doing basic clear out shit, with mecole being a variation of the guy who's more dangerous as a space WR with occasional deep breakaway potential (but overall a mostly subpar technical WR)
These guys aren't just mentally fried. They don't run basic routes or have the football iq to be particularly effective before the catch. So instead most of their weaponry is built around throwing the ball to them in space so they can create after the catch. That's why you have a clearout option like Mvs whose only job is to clear out space underneath. It's either short or the occasional boom/bust deep shot for us. And that needs to change. We've gotta have better pure WRS and not just athletes who can create after catching a wide open ball schemed open for them
