Let the two rookies contribute instead, Shaq Davis and AT Perry.

My top four :

MT, Olave, Shaheed & AT Perry.

After that, it's anyone's guess.

I kinda like what I see from Bowden Jr. He's getting separation and shown ability on special teams (KR/WR/PR).

Roster cuts are coming ...

AT Perry has definitely locked up the number four receiver spot. 3Q not making the trip doesn't have good optics after missing so much time in camp. Shaq looks promising and so does Bowden.

Do we keep five or six receivers? I'm thinking that we will only keep five because we have to find three roster spots for Haener, Taysom and an extra RB. There are only 53 roster spots after all. We might have to keep six receivers though, because we don't know how long Thomas will be available and we need another big bodied possession receiver just in case.

As far back as I checked we always carried at least six WR's.
