I think the most obvious improvement would be Rice working as the #2, but we still don't have anyone to do what Toney should be doing. MVS is limited and has been fairly consistently a 2 receptions a game type of receiver for us. He's a deep threat but he can't do what you need from a #1. To me he seems to struggle with physical defenders. We'd all like to see Moore improve but he doesn't have it at this point. Watson is a journeyman/role player. Is it Ross? He's got almost no snaps at the pro level. He had two great college years that were 2018 and 2019. I hope they try to bring his snaps up, but he's totally green. Going with this new WR group, all of whom have significant questions surrounding them, was a big risk and we're living with that risk week to week. |

At this point I feel like James is a distraction. We’re trying to get him touches and while it’s too soon to tell, I don’t think he’s it.
I had hoped Toney could be a primary target so it gives the other WRs time to grow. Maybe he is that guy but it doesn’t feel like he’s reliable enough to depend on that. I actually really like the idea of figuring out what the offense can grow to look like without him. Then plug and play him more like a utility knife weapon. So I’m not bothered by these injuries that much. I think this will force us to figure out what we have in our young guys which is what we need most. Ross early on since he has less of a learning curve. But ultimately rice. I hate to look past the next few games but they seem really ideal to start playing with the Ross/rice experiment quite a bit more. |

Toney is the one that needs the ball in the his hands the most.

Sam has a good writeup of the issues. We're seeing a ton of zone. Guys need to be able to feel that out. |

Why do people want to acquire Taylor? He doesn't seem like a good fit for us and he is demanding an unreasonable contract. The Colts want a first round pick or Jalen Waddle, etc.
Given that, why would anyone think the Colts would even respond to "flip a third"? Why would we want to "flip a third" for a RB at all? Why would we want to "flip a third" for half a year of a guy who thinks he should be paid $15 million per? |
