That would be an impressive position change /s
@Supra The kid I saw on film moved better than that, but then again they did run him on a lot of go routes
I mean, I'm glad Kirby has decided to bring in more WRs but I'm not sure that bringing in a bunch of really raw guys who may or may not develop isn't pretty much what led to the bottom half of the current depth chart...
Kirby has shown he can take a lesser known guy and turn him into a player on defense. For that matter so has Dell with RBs. I'm not sure this current staff is known for developing WRs.
well the fact of the matter is that we just didn't have enough bodies to finish the year in 2019.
We need 12 WR minimum and more like 15 if we are gonna open up the offense.
We have to start with whoever we can get, and after proof of concept we will start to land the elite WRs that everybody wants.
rn we can just expect to get the best DBs, LBs, RBs, & maybe still OL.
by this time next year and definitely in 2021 (recruiting 2022) we will be able to walk into any WRs room in the country and be able to have a legitimate shot at landing them.
If we could finish with Rosemy/Smith/Robinson/Fleming/Brown/Washington that would be a start.
I'd argue that regardless of how many guys we sign, we need to explore the transfer portal and add an additional 1-2 guys.
Does it worry anyone else that Kirby may think he can recruit his way out of the offensive issues? With his emphatically saying that the WRs were why the offense was bad..and even saying that he is responsible for recruiting the kinds of WRs needed.
In fact he said that the difference between LSU and the Dawgs, between Burrow and Jake, was that we didn't have the same personnel. That we ran a lot of the same plays.
He obviously doesn't want to fire Coley and thus far he's just replaced Pittman. I think many of us are a bit skeptical that he's going to make any real changes to the staff now.
Now there's the late emphasis on WRs and offensive players in general but unfortunately this late they're having to scrounge. Pretty sure we'd heard that Burton was kind of a guy we had cooled off on awhile back and now we're offering all sorts.
Is Kirby like a GM who thinks he can change one side of the ball in a draft? If so, has this staff shown the ability as currently made up to suddenly start developing offensive weapons?
So either Burton or Smith I'm guessing
I really hope we didn't process Corey Wren just to whiff on Burton
Question on his ability to catch. Take a guy a tenth of a sec slower in the 40 that already plays the position is what staff felt was a safer bet. Burton, Fleming, Brown all fit this description.
Oh I agree with you but just a question now on if we can sign the guys.
Wonderful contribution to the board, friend
This is great and all until we can’t convert 3rd and short or not being able to punch it in from the goal line ie... the Florida game two years ago.
