Maclin Conley Streater Hill Charles in the slot some(Ware in backfield) Robinson to PS? Haven't we seen the best of Wilson already? I just can't stand his lack of effort sometimes.

Maclin can play anywhere and still be a #1 type guy
Not sure why Hill hasn't gotten more play at receiver in the preseason. I'm not a fan of this "hiding a player" in preseason crap. Repetition is much more important for the offensive player than the surprise factor. The surprise only last for the 1st half of the 1st game. If Robinson just not ready?

You are so anxious to lecture everyone about how smart you are that you don't even read the dam post completely before mouthing off. "Robinson to the PS?" ...... or is he ready for the roster? Keeping him active would be 5. We also don't know about keeping DaT either, it looks like they are. I just think it's time to move on from Wilson. If we don't then that means our WRs aren't as good as we had hoped. Carry on with your lecture to the board about your football expertise....

Sure he can.
But nobody else on the roster can. If you make Maclin the Y (full time slot), you have nobody left that can provide you the experience, intelligence and versatility that the Z in this offense requires. Moving Maclin to the slot would be similar to moving Fisher to LG. You simply don't have any way to backfill effectively for him.

You don't move Maclin if you have nobody to fill in I think Streater is an outside only guy. Moving Maclin to the slot would allow Conley and Streater to play the outside. Just an assumption on my part. Conley is turning into a Maclin clone which bodes well for us.

He could literally be asked to line up anywhere on the field on any given play. We really don't do much of that with the other receivers; it's something of a design feature of Reid's system. That's what made him such a brilliant acquisition (and why people that thought he was just another Bowe were reeruns). His versatility is precisely what makes this passing offense work. Without it, we're really stuck trying to hammer some square pegs into round holes or outright dropping some of our formations. Now if we had another guy like Maclin, it would be a worthwhile experiment, but if that were the case - why not just put THAT guy in the slot? No sense in dicking with the guy that's done this for 5 years now. Conley will be fun to watch develop but man, he has a long way to go to be as intuitive and as precise as J-Mac.

Since it looks like the Offense might have to carry the defense a bit this year, does anyone think Jah Reid should be starting at guard so Ehinger can spend a year getting stronger? Reid played pretty well in the playoffs.

That might not be a bad idea seeing how Ehinger got abused last week. I had suggested Fulton, but was shot down because he is not athletic enough. Reid may be a better option. I forgot about him playing guard last year.

Ehinger left practice with cramps today and Fulton took over left guard with the 1's.
Reid's a swing player, not a starter. |

IIRC they've had Ehinger running with the ones all camp, it seems they're dead set on working around his functional strength issues this year

Fisher and Morse will have their hands full.

Andy will have Ehinger play LG with the 1's until the night before the 1st real game, then he'll make a late switch and expect Fulton/Reid or somebody to be ready to step right in.
you just know it's coming
