He has made some deep plays before for this team just not consistently due to a lack of opportunities. Crazy for you to deny his obvious talent. Again, not a wr2 but still can be a weapon for this offense.

I think you're missing the point. He was drafted to be a #2 because we needed a #2. He's never met that potential, and in the NFL if you haven't done it by year 3, you're not going to. Nobody is denying he's fast, but speed alone isn't going to cut it in this league. He was drafted in the 3rd round, but he's been outplayed by multiple WR's without his draft pedigree. Hell, even Dotson outperformed him, and he's not risen to the challenge since he was traded. We need a true #2 (or even a #1) WR and for he, Zaccheus and/or McCaffrey to either assume that mantle in the next 4 games, or we're going again next draft. I give McCaffrey some leeway as he's yr1. Everyone else is competing for the #4 & #5 slot next season.

Dotson was a much higher draft pick and a much bigger disappointment

I say DB was drafted to be a deep threat/ ST guy from the thrid round, dotson was definitely drafted to be the number two guy a year later

for the record DB has outperformed Jt so far this season

and for double the record RR drafted these guys so its all poop anywho

The bottom line someone needs to step up this year and we need to find that 2nd guy next year through FA or draft

I mean maybe actaully terry is the two and we bring in a true one

This staff did NOT draft him. You can't say why he was drafted when this regime didn't even take him. A completely slanted and unfair take. He's produced some and has speed and talent. He's also young with a real qb now. If the staff doesn't want him because they have better receivers going forward fine, but until then get behind him as the team can go on a playoff run this year.
