Regardless, our receivers are getting open and catching the ball. They have not dropped many passes AT ALL. Morton has been killer on third down. But going out and getting a #1 WR (and I doubt there is going to be one available) is wasted cap dollars that should be spent on defense.

My guess is they are pretty conservative on calling something a "drop"... which is why I used the "passes targeted and caught" stat. |

For instance TO only has 3 recorded drops but i have seen him drop a ton of passes this season due to bad hands. The same goes for Darell Jackson who only has 6 but he has botched an an unbelievable amount of passes this season. |

I do agree with a lot of posters about needing a true #1 WR and both Morton and Kennison are getting to the point in there carreers where productivity typically drops off. Not sure how long they will last. JM takes pretty good care of himself and may last a little longer than some. |

No, Morton is a brand of prefabricated metal building.

Guys, guys, guys.
I think we need to keep our eye on the ball here. This offense, when healthy, is still entirely of a Super Bowl contention level. YES, only when Priest Holmes is in the game, but for cryin' out loud, Priest is one of the best players in all of football. I don't think it's really incriminating that we're better WITH him than without. It's true that Morton and Kennison COULD be upgraded; it's also true that they're serviceable. Furthermore, we DID make an attempt to address the future of those positions in the draft last year. AND we were planning on having the new wrinkle of Wilson, which due to injury hasn't happened. AND we lost Boerigter, who looked like he was going to challenge for a starting spot, #3 at the least. The big worries on the offensive side of the ball should be the age of Roaf and Shields, and the health/retirement questions of Holmes. A top ten defense and we're probably undefeated right now. It's the DEFENSE, STUPID! We need LB's, a FS, and a top notch corner! We need another offseason to continue the development of Allen and Siavii! This offense is FINE. As long as Priest returns next season, it'll be BETTER, due to the addition of Wilson, return of Boerigter, development of Parker, etc. As long as Roaf and Shields don't slow down appreciably, it's fine for one more year. I'd re-sign Blaylock, though, if at all possible. Chris |
