And when speed is your #1 asset like it is for Richardson, it's just not very often that Wilson can find you.

Richardson's QB this year will be protected by stud Ts guarding the edges plus Scherff up the middle. I'm confident in Roullier too.

Even if Richardson continues to drop balls at the same % rate, he'll have more targets just by virtue of the fact that Smith will be protected well enough.

I don't know about 1000 yards but I definitely see him coming through with better numbers than he had in Seattle. His real value is the deep threat combined with the strong protection - defenses will be forced to play him deep leaving 7 man fronts for Guice.

We finally have a runner than can make a defense pay for consistent 7 man fronts. If Guice is 4.5 yards per carry like I think he'll be, then Paul Richardson is one of the first guys he'll have to thank for it.

Great points, we do have damn good Tackles. (well 1 is the goat) Wilson faced more pressure last season than any QB, I just don't know if PRich is anything more than a 1 trick pony. He hasn't really had a chance to show that yet so we will see. I think Josh will have the biggest impact at WR in the RZ for sure and for possession balls. Guice and CT will get a big workload too so I just don't see PR getting more than 4 catches a game
