Re: Wide receivers
 

Just look at Cris Carter (yeah he's an absolute A-hole as a person) he was never big or fast but he had some of the best hands of any WR to ever play the game

You watch some of his highlights and he isn't out running guys, but his route running allowed to him to get open and he caught pretty much every pass that was catchable.

Know Payton loves Joe Morgan slippery speed in the secondary...

But I think Josh Morgan is making this team; if not for the fumble, I'd say he'd have the fourth slot right now...

When looking at the PFF grading, I noticed he's had as many snaps as anybody in this offense...

Today will say plenty about the WRs that make this team...

Re: Wide receivers
 

Separation and hands, a receiver is useless to his quarterback with 'em...

Re: Wide receivers
 

It is Cooks, Colston, Snead, and Whoever Whatever... not even close after those 3. Frankly, none of the others make an NFL roster if cut, methinks.

Re: Wide receivers
 

Agreed. I think Coleman experiment is done. Has the size but is soft. Reminds me of a Jimmy Graham that just cant catch. Or a Jimmy Graham that is not Jimmy Graham but is as soft as Jimmy Graham.

Re: Wide receivers
 

Coleman is still catching passes with his forearms and chest. Not a good sign.

Re: Wide receivers
 

Agreed

Re: Wide receivers
 

The media is nuts concerning our recievers. Look, there are no super names like Jimmy Graham and while Stills was pretty good these two are not our team. EVERY skill position on our team catches the ball. EVERY game Drew will complete passes to 8 or 9 different receivers. Count on it.

Re: Wide receivers
 

Honestly I think this is a scenario that we need to get back to. We were at our best when defenses didn't know where to predict the ball was going. When 9-10 players had receptions every game. When Brees could throw for 5K without a 1K receiver. We were impossible to defend. When Jimmy came along, and as great a mismatch he was, we became the Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy passing game. We always felt the greatest percentage play was always his way. We got bland and predictable and easy to defend. I think this forces us back to what we do best, spread it around and keep defenses on their heels.

Re: Wide receivers
 

It would be nice to think they would not have gotten rid of Stills & JG w/o having an idea that they had some good WRs already.
