Re: Position Spotlight: WR & TE
Actually, I think we have the makings of a great WR corps...
Problem is, my favorite player, Colston, just doesn't have it anymore with his declining foot injury... If you had a young, healthy bit tall WR like Colston, Cooks as Flanker, with healthy Stills as a Slot/No. 3; coupled with healthy Graham and Josh Hill on deck - you'd have the best WR corps in the league... In other words, that unit is that close... |

Re: Position Spotlight: WR & TE
And I blame the coaching for that! When was the last time we developed a WR?

Re: Position Spotlight: WR & TE
On the contrary to all those reports, I think if Colston doesn't improve his play this year, it will be his last as a saint.
