Our starting WRs will be...? | Page 2

I know a lot of people have been calling out that smelter will be our starting WR if we don't resign Bolden but I think it will be Rogers. Here are my reasons. 1. If you compare the highlight tapes Rogers looks faster and more athletic. He can go up and make difficult catches. Watching Smelters highlights they didn't look like highlights. The catches he did make went straight to his hands and he looks he catches everything in his stomach. Smelter is a two foot jumper meaning for a highball he looks as if he stops, sets him self and jumps up with both feet. Where Rogers was comfortable jumping off of one foot and catching the ball at its highest points and continuing on in stride. 2. Smelter was drafted by Balke who is like 1 for 20 drafting wrs. If you look at the wrs who outperformed their draft slot he has none. You can't give him to much credit for Crabtree because he was considered the best Wr in that draft and he slid down that was a no brainer. 3. Kelly loves Rogers who has a better track record drafting and developing wrs. Plus Rogers has more experience with different offenses. 4. If we go after a free agent Wr it would be a waste of money because we don't have anyone that can get them the ball. People was calling Torrey Smith a flop. He's not a flop our qbs sucked. Our QBs could make Dez Bryant look like a bust. The worst thing we could do is go spend big money on a 2nd or 3rd tier free agent that will end up catching 30 balls like smith. You get a good QB then look for wrs.

Smith, Patton and Smelter.

I think Patton will thrive under Chip. Take away the few boneheaded mistakes, which he started to clean up towards the end last year, and he made plays when given the opportunity. I'm excited to see him, Ellington and Smelter this year.

Also looking to see how Dres Anderson looks in this system. Very young and untapped WR potential already on this roster, IMO

I think it will be Diandre Campell and Dres Anderson will be cut and hopefully make it on the practice squad if not picked up by another team. The last spot will be a battle between Bruce Ellington and DeAndrew White if we only keep six
