Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
I think now with a more balanced offense you will see our we crew excel. With AP, MIA running and the rookie catching passes out of the backfield they will have to respect the run. Been awhile since drew had a running game that could take over if needed. You will see drew throw a lot less this year in my opinion. Tds will go up, yardage will still be around 5000.even flee we will shine with a running game. AP may actually make us a 50/50 team. Can't wait to see our running backs catching screens and swing passes.

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
I'm curious to see how Coach Johnson can coach-up Coleman into a better WR. He's made some great grabs but the inconsistency makes this year a make or break one for him. Whoever has hands we can hope proves themselves in camp.
16 Coleman, Brandon WR 6-6 225 24 2 Rutgers 11 Fuller, Corey WR 6-2 200 26 3 Virginia Tech Ginn, Ted WR 5-11 180 32 11 Ohio State 19 Lampman, Jake WR 6-0 205 23 R Ferris State Lawrence, Rashad WR 6-2 203 24 2 Northwestern 87 Lewis, Tommylee WR 5-7 168 24 R Northern Illinois 83 Snead IV, Willie WR 5-11 195 24 2 Ball State 13 Thomas, Michael WR 6-3 212 24 R Ohio State 81 Williams-Lambert, Jordan WR 6-3 228 22 R Ball State |

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
I'll be surprised if Coleman makes it through training camp.

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
I see it differently.
Brandon might be the best 4th WR in the league. I see shades of him putting his size to his advantage. Some would say he's turned a corner in New Orleans. I just don't think Coach Payton is looking to cut a young, cheap WR who has shown steady improvement. Now factor in Curtis Johnson as his coach. Fuller could challenge him though ![]() |

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
I think it would help to bring in a veteran possession receiver like Boldin. If not we have to hope another Lance Moore-type emerges or it could be a heavy load on Thomas and Snead this year. I just don't see Ginn as a full-time weapon.

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
Almost 37 and likely sitting out of any training camps. Not going to work. As Colston said, have to put in the reps, master the routes.

Re: Thoughts on our WR corp
its time for brandon coleman to shed the diapers and get after a no#2 receiver spot reserved for him, needs to show in training camp that he will make the transition this year or he will be hacked down the line. but like a someone posted earlier that hes a cheap no# 3 or 4 receiver and mick and payton puts up with his inconsistencies , i like coleman he has progressed in the last couple of seasons and i'm calling him out the season , lets get it going bro. your payday is waiting.
