Wide Receivers

Right now we have 8 Wide Receivers on our roster...

Robiskie
Massaquoi
Stuckey
Steptoe
Cribbs
Jake Allen
Johnathan Haggerty
Carlton Mitchell

Based on the current Wide Receivers are there any dark horses that impress you? Looking at our Wide Receiver crop right now we look pretty bad. Our #2 receiver, Robiskie, caught 7 balls last year. Behind Robiskie, Massaquoi, and Cribbs we look horrible. Stuckey is decent, but he is not the answer for a #3 or even #4 receiver. Steptoe is coming back from an injury and wasn't even that good when healthy. Allen, Haggerty, and Mitchell are all unproven, which means the verdict is still out, so hopefully they pan out. After looking over the receivers I really hope we can bring in an experienced vet to help out this season, but it doesn't look likely to happen.

Thoughts?

and #4 are defined as decent receivers.

We did bring in an experienced vet to help out this year: Jake Delhomme.

Also, Stuckey was pretty decent in NY. I expect him to be pretty decent again now that he doesn’t have Quinn and Anderson to deal with.

I think Stuckey can be a solid 3 if he reaches his potential and has a QB that can get it within 5 yards of his route. A lot hinges on Robiskie this year, if he turns into a capable starter, then our WRs will be decent enough. If not, we should be prepared for a pretty poor passing attack.

It’s also important to consider Watson and Moore as part of the passing game.
