DAT will hardly see the field unless it's on special teams.

Cody Thompson or Gehrig Dieter.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE

Or neither, I guess. That's also a possibility.

There's chairs on the practice squad with their names on 'em.

And with our luck, the Pats will scoop up Dieter and make him the next great white hype.

I hope they keep Thompson he has been performing well so far in camp and in preseason. How many WR's did we keep last year, 6 or 7?

DAT's primary role here will be as a gunner. He's an excellent gunner. They clearly had Kemp slated for that role but with his injury, they needed a replacement gunner. With Hardman, Hill and Smith there was never a need for a returner. That's not to say DAT won't get return work, but he's a hired gunner.



Nope.
The value of a possession receiver is more about being physical enough and running crisp enough routes to get some short stuff. We could definitely use that. On the one hand, mahomes needs to learn to take the checkdown every once in a while. But it would be great to have someone other than kelce in very specific situations who can help our short game. New England basically took away our entire deep zone and you'd have to think lots of other defenses will try the same.

Nope. That's what Kelce is for. Big bodied receivers who win with positioning are great for QB's who can't throw with anticipation and accuracy.

Those days are long gone, son.

Besides, we already have two guys who fit that bill if need be. Watkins and Kelce. And Hill is more than capable of that as well, regardless of his size.

The idea of a possession receiver is an out of date concept. This aint the 90's no more.

Agreed.

I think the WR group will be:

Hill
Watkins
Hardman
Robinson
DAT
Thompson

The only other WR might be Rashard Davis but he really hasn't done anything and Custis has been invisible (unless they are hiding him).

So DAT was FA sitting at home waiting for the phone to ring?

Why hadn’t any other team checked him out?
