They had just as many rookies @ WR on their roster as the Saints.

Again, Tre needs to step up in 2019.

No question. Point I was attempting to illustrate was that we had several rookies come into the system all at once; so it's not just him that should be improved Year 2, but Kirkwood, essentially new position Arnold...

So part of the problem was a system issue figuring all those rookies out, where they best fit, and splitting all that one-on-one-Coach-Curtis-Whoopin'-Stick-Training among more rookies than usual...

If anything, he ran away from everyone in TC like a bat-outta-hell (cue Meatloaf) and then, some reason, just disappeared like Homer Simpson into the shrubs...

Injury? Lifestyle adjustment? Maturity? 3rd round pick, you right, he's gotta step it up...

	It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
