I keep hearing everyone say that we need to give Patton and Ellington more time, they have had enough time! If they were playmakers they would show it in practice and force their way in the lineup and more reps. They have not showed me anything. They way you make a player better is to bring in competition with guys that are hungry. In my opinion we need to draft at least 2 wrs and bring in 1 or 2 young guys in free agency and let the best players win. If we bring in for example Braxton Miller and Jalin Marshall I guarantee them guys will step up there games or pack their bags. What I am against is bringing in anymore 34 year old drug dealers to take reps away from the young guys. We need a Wr that is a great KR/PR that is a threat to score and a speed Wr that can actually outrun some people.

There is no one from Michigan that could make our team! Lol I really do think Marshall is the best returner in the draft.

If this becomes the KR/PR thread I'll throw out the name Morgan Burns CB Kansas State. He can be a serviceable player on defense while being a monster ST player. He is patient, follows his blocks well, and has speed to take it all the way.

There we go! Looks like a ST ace and we could use one of those with one of our 900 6th round picks lol

I'm assuming you mean anyone from michigan this year. Which is still incorrect Graham Glasgow could probably beat Marcus Martin out for a roster spot. But good to see your hate and complete biased opinion makes u overlook a player who might be better than someone from Ohio State. I'm actually excited to see your opinion of Jourdan Lewis, Jabrill Peppers and Jake Butt next year.

Bruce Ellington had 19 targets the entire season.

19.

How did you come to a conclusion based on that tiny sample size of work?

We ran a run heavy offense for how long? Last year nobody was properly evaluated and certainly not in the passing game.

Patton was supposedly killing it in practice and looking great yet didn't get to see the field in 2014. Last year when he got his time he made plays. Nobody is saying he's an elite receiver but he's quality depth.

Ellington simply wasn't used right. How long did it take the coaches to actually use him as a receiver outside of quick WR screen type plays? He is a perfect slot receiver and we hardly used him out of there. A guy like that would absolutely kill on the Patriots.
