But we know that Andy will throw the ball 600+ times so the targets have to go somewhere. Historically, we know we can’t expect a ton from young guys like Rice and Ross. Toney will miss time, probably a good bit of it. Watson isn’t very good.

The only one who is likely to experience a realistic jump in targets this season is Moore and idk if I see that guy becoming a 100 target kind of player.

I think MVS is a lock for around 500-600 yards. That's just what he is for his whole career. I'd be surprised if he got much less or much more than that.

He had 700 last year. I think he gets thrusted into a more prominent role and I’m expecting about 800 from him this season.

I may be disappointed but I do agree that I can’t really see him contributing less than 500 yards assuming he stays healthy all year.

I think with the number of WRs we have this year and barring the injury issues we had last year, his numbers will likely go down. He's just not a every down threat so for him to have 800, it would mean we're just lighting it up over the top like in 2018 and I don't think that's what we're going to do.

Definitely possible. Looking at his stats, he’s generally been a 500-700 yard kind of guy while playing with Rodgers and Mahomes. Nearing 700 seems difficult for him so me expecting 800 might be a stretch.

Though I will say that we are likely to have injury issues this year as well, just instead of Juju being hurt, it’ll be Toney. If Toney goes down, you’re looking at rookie Rice, sophomore Skyy and journeyman James at the top of the WR depth chart. If that comes to pass and MVS doesn’t approach 800, I am going to say right now that I’ll be disappointed he couldn’t turn it up a notch.
