3. He needs a slot receiver. Again, what caliber?
Do you think when he gets all of those things, he will become a QB capable of spreading a defense? Will he become 300+ yd QB?

1. TE's in the WCO generally account for a minimum of 80 catches. Kevin Brock and Sean McGrath would be lucky to account for half of that.
2. Are you watching the games? Allen is getting punked, Hudson gets his shit pushed in, Asamoah sucks at pass blocking and Fisher has been awful. How about average play?
3. While Cruz and Welker would be nice, someone who will have at least 50 catches.
And to answer your question, no, Alex Smith will not average 300 yards per game.
Joe Flacco averaged
238 per game last year and won a Super Bowl.
