So, we should sign another WR, right? [Edit: RIGHT!!?!]

[Direckshun]

It's being reported at this time that Rice is expected to be suspended half the season or more.

If that's what's up, the good news is: he'll be good to go for December/January.

The bad news is, here's the WR depth chart:

Marquise Brown
Xavier Worthy
Justin Watson
Skyy Moore
Kadarious Toney
Justyn Ross
Nikko Remigio
Cornell Powell

Available WRs:

Hunter Renfrow
Allen Robinson
Odell Beckham, Jr.
Tyler Boyd
Michael Thomas
Marquez Valdes-Scantling
Russell Gage
Zay Jones
DJ Chark
Jamal Agnew
Mecole Hardman
Jakeem Grant
Randall Cobb
Marquise Goodwin
Chase Claypool
Deandre Carter
Sterling Shepard
Richie James
Jalen Guyton
Scotty Miller
Laquon Treadwell
Byron Pringle
and some others

Thoughts?

The WR corps is already better than it was at any point since Hill was traded, even without Rice.

BTW, I'd be stunned if he was suspended for 8 games or more.

[Megatron96]

8 games seems like a lot. But who knows?


Playing the hypothetical, would've been nice to get Boyd. Solid veteran that could've been a good mentor for our young WRs. But since he's gone . . . OBJ or Michael Thomas? Heard that OBJ was doing a good job mentoring the young WRs in BAL last season, so that'd be good to have. Feel like MT could provide a similar service. OBJ may have more left in the tank than MT though. Thomas hasn't looked like himself for a couple years now.

Imagine being suspended for 8 games for this when Deshaun Watson got 11 for forcing 30+ women finger his butthole.

I know right, I guess it would have been better for him (regarding the NFL suspension) if he were a violent piece of shit like Kamara

[Sassy Squatch]

MVS should be signed regardless as long as Moore is still rostered to replace him.

[Nightfyre]

So Michael Thomas or Zay Jones? Just thinking about guys who can flex outside or in the slot and who can win in the intermediate levels.

[kccrow]

I'd most like to see Tyler Boyd or Zay Jones on a 1-year deal to play the big slot with outside flex ability while Rice is suspended and to provide quality veteran depth.

DITTO!

Michael Thomas is NOT an option. He has spent more time in the tub than the field!

I'm in for a cheap Zay Jones deal, but I think Boyd would want too much to come here.

And maybe we'll get creative with our TEs this season and find the answer to the big slot position you mentioned? I wouldn't be shocked if our base offense was a 12 formation, especially as it looks like we're keeping four TEs this season. Kelce is the obvious selection but keep an eye on Irv Smith and the rookie Wiley to flex in there, as well. I wouldn't be shocked to see Noah Gray in the backfield at H-Back, also.

[gordonelloyd]

I would like to see Hunter Renfrew as well. A couple years ago when he was given the chance he really played well.

And I agree with the poster above, no matter how things shake out with rice, our WR room is going to be better than it was last year.

[Chargem]

I don't think they will sign another receiver, but I do think it would be sensible to get another 1 year deal done with someone.

I think they will continue to give Moore, Watson, Toney more snaps than CP would. They could also be running a lot more 12 and 13 personnel with 4 TEs on the roster.

[RunKC]

They need a guy with size that can like up outside full time. MVS is the easiest choice here.

And yes MVS at $3 million as a complimentary player is much better than MVS making $10+ million as WR1.

I don't think MVS serves any purpose anymore on this team when we already have 3 deep threats. I actually think they are going to use Worthy a lot more near the LOS than most though but still you have Hollywood and Watson who run alot of deep routes.
