That way even if the rest of our WRs show little development you're getting roughly what you got last year.
MVS - mediocre decoy who takes over the odd game or has the odd key contribution. Same as last year
KT - covers Hardman gadget plays, the odd PR, erratic but some key contributions, same as last year
Rice - Gradually increases snaps and takes the JJSS role mid-season
Moore - who knows, same as last year, it probably doesn't matter
Ross - red zone threat replaces Fortson?
James - Average PR guy who replaces and improves upon Moore from last year
Watson- same role as last year
Basically if Rice grows into the JJSS role everyone else can stand still and we'd be good. Not a certainty but it doesn't require a giant leap of faith either i don't think.

I doubt it's a simple one to one replacement situation.
