Low risk high reward

Mouth fart noise
|
I’m ****ing HOR-NAY!!!
|
My goodness some of you guys have wanted him for four years. LMAO
|
it looks like, just looking at the stats, that he's gotten better over time. 800 yards 2 seasons ago and had 300 yards in 9 games which is meh but that would actually be good for us lol. He would probably do more than Skyy and Toney so **** it bring him in.
|
Do it Bart Peach
|
Rice without the crimes.
|
Love Zay. Get it done.
|
Do the the same CP posters in the Rice thread that were telling people nbd you're overreacting wanna tell Veach?
|
Better than Moore.

Found a couple scouting reports on Zay Jones that might be illuminating. Understanding of course that these were written prior to his being drafted:
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/zay-jo...b-837ea00d253e hhttps://www.playerprofiler.com/article/zay-jones-advanced-stats-metrics-nfl-draft-profile/ttp:// Sounds like another Richie James type. |
"Jones had 158 receptions for 1,746 yards and eight touchdowns in the 2016 season. In this NFL Draft class there is no better receiver in terms of yards after the catch. As a freshman he caught 63 passes. As a sophomore he had 81 receptions and as a junior he hauled in 98 receptions.
The Pirates QB position has been a revolving door over the past 3 seasons, with 6 QB’s logging starts at one point or another. Zay Jones didn’t let it affect his play, as he produces with all of them. His ability to get open on short and intermediate routes make him a reliable safety net for anyone behind center. The most important thing to note about his game is that he doesn’t drop balls. I counted one single clean drop out of all the games I watched. He also has experience running a variety of routes well. Screens, reverses and slants made up the majority of his route tree, making him a good fit for a West Coast offense." Ok, sounds like a perfect Rice replacement until he returns. |

Pirates? Is this guy a pitcher or a catcher? err, receiver, I mean . . . |
I picture Veach as a Wild West gunslinger strutting up and kicking in the saloon door and shouting I’m looking for the dead son of a bitch that shot my brother.
Of course since his powder got wet in a downpour the night before he stopped at the local general store and bought some new ammo |
He got a pretty big contract a couple of years back, I believe.
I think he caught that corner touchdown deepball from Nick Foles on the play where Foles got injured against us. It was a nice throw. We kicked the Jags ass pretty good that game |
We need to raise the floor of the room without Rice. Zay Jones gives us that. End of story.
|
So... why hasn't he produced more in the league so far?
|
Zay is a no brainer. He needs a rehab year if he wants a big deal. Doesn’t come without risk, but Andy knows how to keep a team on track.
Need to sign him tomorrow. |

His NFL.com scouting report says that while he struggles to create sep at the top of his routes, he catches with his hands, snatches the ball out of the air, and plays very physically at the catchpoint. All traits that could be very useful to our offense, especially if Rice doesn't play for more than a couple games. |

Trevor was night and day better with Zay than without him. It would be a solid move with or without rice.
|
Not that it's saying much but Jones Brown Worthy is better than Rice and whatever trash we started last year

Mahomes running for his life cost us a SB. But, now he does take action before it costs us SB’s. |

How are you supposed to account for basically your entire OL falling apart due to injuries? There's no plan for that. |

That's not a 'big deal' by WR standards but that's a hell of a lot more than walking around money. |
I hella pro Rashee but this almost feels like a must sign if we want to be a top 5 offense this year.
|
Make it happen, Veachy.

Sends a message to Rice to get his shit together because he's on the doorstep if he continues to embarrass the Clarks.

1. LDT would opt out for the season due to Covid 2. Schwartz, their All Pro RT would miss the second half of the season due to back issues that caused him to retire. 3. Fisher would blow out his Achille's near the end of the AFCCG. Not saying that KC would have won the SB without the Fisher injury, but of all the line players that did not play in the SB, Fisher's was easily the most crushing. Remmers was serviceable at RT. but a disaster at LT. |

I don’t remember Fisher missing any time until his Achilles injury. Plus, we had 2 Covid opt outs. Blaming Veach for that is really something. |

Not opposed to him at all. Really we’re simply trying to fill the 4th receiving target (at what) here.
We needed size to play outside and he provides that. |

There's a lot of utility we'd get from a healthy Jones. He's more than a stopgap. |

You always would like to layer rookies and young players with vets that atleast can step in and be where they're supposed to be I guess.
|
I would not be opposed to signing him. Seems like a no brainer, assuming no major health issues.

Quote:
Did I mention he knows the offense playing with Doug? They need to keep only 6 WR’s and have Toney, Skyy and the other battle it out for WR6. Unfortunately that won’t happen but it needs to. |
I'd consider a deal at/near what OBJ got for him. Probably a little less than that, but honestly, Zay's been genuinely good more recently than OBJ has been. He's a little more advanced in the offense and has some slightly better size as well.

If they keep 7 again, it's a bad sign. It means that they're far less confident in Brown/Worthy than we'd hoped. Brown Rice (Susp) Worthy Jones Watson (STs) Toney/Moore Maybe if the Rice thing is sorted out before the season started they keep Toney AND Moore. Or if they don't sign Jones. But they're not signing Jones and keeping Moore and Toney PLUS Rice. If Rice starts the season active AND they sign Jones, I just don't see a way they keep Toney and Moore - that's what would have to happen to get to 7. Keeping 7 just not a good idea at all, especially when only one of those guys has core special teams value; the other 2 would be return guys only. They'll need that roster spot for either a 4th TE or perhaps Safeties or LBs that can backfill for the special teams shortcomings of the back of the WR room. |

In one of Veach’s press conferences after the draft, he stressed keeping 10 or 11 O-linemen vs I believe what he said was 9 last year. I’m assuming that means WR will be going back to normal this year as well. 5, maybe 6.

He's nothing but draft capital at this point. He's a sunk cost. They may be hoping they can salvage something from him the way they did with MEH (who is basically serviceable as an RB2, though you'd like to upgrade there). But if they're looking at bringing in Zay Jones, Moore is on borrowed time. A summer ruling on the Rice suspension is all that will keep him on the roster at that point. |
Just cut Moore now then.
I don't think they will but a Jones signing would be a good case for it. It also may mean they think Rice is out a while. |
Quote:
To what benefit? Oh sure, i think it's a foregone conclusion at that point, but what if Toney's leg gets bitten off by a crocodile or something. (Honestly, I'd just sign MVS and still cut Moore). Or what if Moore just comes into camp and is actually good? There's just nothing gained by it. |

Skyy Moore basically not playing specials could be a real problem for him, if he's in that WR 5 or 6 battle.
