ctm Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 One of the purposes of OTAs is to find out where you are with the players. Yes, there appears to be an issue. But it's two fold. Minor injuries and learning a new system. Both situations are likely to get better. Management has 6 weeks or so before training camp to add another WR.

Popular Post Mythos27 Posted June 14, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 If you sidelined 3 of the top 5 receivers from any team in the league, I'd bet their receivers would struggle against the #1 defense in practice too...

headhunter Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I think the passing game will struggle all year. I think theres a lot of change, a lack of talent, and Mariota struggling with both issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanicoNFLfan Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) I trust in the WRs development and addaptation to the new system. There's still a huge amount of time for them to learn it. Who I don't have a lot of trust is in Davis. That dude has trully been injured way too much. The guy is talented, but dealing with so many injuries is hard to help his case. It's like only having a Mercedez Benz, with a broken block in it.

The interesting thing is he looked fine in that tweet from the other day when he was limited. Makes me think they are just limiting his workload as a pre caution.

Doogie Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Compare it to last year. Matthews, rookie Davis, injured Sharpe, old Decker. This years we have Matthews, 2nd year Davis, uninjured Sharpe. Add a vet and we will be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OILERMAN Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 They have to plan on playing a lot of two TE sets. Even if everyone is healthy the #3 guy is going to be Sharpe or Taylor and neither are ideal, unless Taylor really breaks out from year 1 to 2. He's still unproven. This assumes everyone stays healthy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not againt it at all just dont think the sky is falling after the first 2 real days of mini camp. Wyatt was falling all over himself last week about the young wr play. This is what happens when you obsess over every little nugget of info that comes out during the offseason.
