Who do people think lock down the default 3 WR 2 TE set?
4 WR 1 TE set?
5 WR set?

Options: Jones, Daniels, Toma, Neal, Farley?, Atkinson?, Smith, riddick, Ferguson, Goodman, and Brown and then Eifert, Welch, and Koyack

WR1 Jones. WR1 Jones
WR2 Daniels. WR2 Daniels
SLOT Toma. SLOT Toma
TE Eifert. WR3 Neal or Eifert/Koyack
TE Koyack. TE Eifert/Koyack

Neal on one side, Heggie on the other. Go ahead, try and stop that.

I tink you guys are all going to be suprised this year by Daniel Smith. If this kid is healthy he offers a tall WR with great leaps for those fade routes. Go watch the kids HS tapes. He can jump.
He has been put aside because he suffered a couple injuries and was behind a decent WR named Floyd. He is my pick to make waves this spring.
I would love to see a Smith, Davarius, Eiffert, Koyack line-up in the red zone. 4 big bodied jumpers.

That bodes well for Rees. Has any other QB shown an ability to throw the highball?

Are we not running any sets with running backs next year?

It appears Kelly will name Goodman as starting QB to help maximize ball-catchers on the field. He'd be good for a couple of passes to himself a game.

Is this a bad joke? 5 OL + 3 WR + 1 TE + 1 QB + 1 RB= 11

U can start ur own wide receivers thread and talk about running backs

Again, calm down a little. He was just giving you a hard time. But looking at your OP, your question either contained 5 WR's, 4 WR's + 1 TE, or 3 WR's + 2 TE's. All those scenarios add up to 5 pass catchers, 1 QB, 5 OL, and 0 RB's.

Seriously I will correct u again can u read? This is a WR thread not RB and WR.

so, RB is part of a lot of schemes. This thread could contain all formations that we may use (these are just some):
5WR
4WR+1TE
4WR+1RB
3WR+1TE+1RB
3WR+2TE
2WR+2TE+1RB

The poster should be allowed to choose which formation he would like to address. Personally, I like the 3WR+1TE+1RB formation and I think we will see it quite a bit.

WR: DD/Smith
WR: Jones --> Chris Brown
WR: Neal/Toma
TE: Eifert
RB: Wood/Theo

However, if we have a 4 WR set I see:
DD/Smith
Neal/Toma
Jones
Chris Brown

for some reason, I see DD and Smith relieving each other, but it is also possible that these two are our outside deep threat guys this year.

STL, you gotta chill out homie.

No need to get worked up about someone poking fun at you.

I like what you have contributed to the board thus far, so i do not wish for you to leave. But, if you are to stay, you need to have a little thicker skin than that.

I apoligize. If I am unclear on a post I would prefer correction and questions on what I meant not jokes

would you guys agree that last years, let's call it, default:
floyd, jones, riddick, eifert, and cierre? i'd love to see the percentage of snaps that we were in this formation.
interchangeable parts were jonas and toma (towards the end of the year).

im going with, for 2012:
D. smith, jones, neal, eifert and wood/riddick
i would not be upset if davarius got in the mix.

i've been a champion for toma for a long time. but neal is going to be on the field day one in the slot. roby is a very accomplished and seasoned back up who proved a great option when riddick was injured but in the words of hanz and franz "hear me now, believe me later", neal is the next golden tate. but on the inside.

Beg to differ. You've only watched Neal's highlight tapes. He was 10x more effective than Riddick.

I am all about Toma in the slot. He doesn't look scary when lining up there, but the dude makes 1st down grabs left and right.

I do hope to see Neal on the field, but I really like what Toma brings to the WR corps

In my opinion, Neal will see the field, just not as a starter in the slot.

that is true. ive only seen the tape. but i also like what i hear in scouting reports and from kelly.

if the "he" you refer to is toma, you're absolutely correct. i actually preferred him to starting over riddick. but, i did not mean that toma is only good at being a backup. i guess i wasnt clear about that.

i've said in other posts (i think in the riddick thread), that it never worked out for him in this experiment. from what we believe riddick will be in the backfield, and i just think neal will come in way to explosive after the catch. i do realize this was the belief in riddick...

i cant wait till fall!

Roby Toma is not an every down player. Period. He's the kind of guy that if you have a A- athletic CB (say, Nickell Robey) to mark him he's going to struggle to get open 1-on-1. Does a lot of stuff well, but he's limited.

I think you're going to see 8 total WRs used next year with 5 primary guys getting touches. TJ Jones, John Goodman, Roby Toma, Theo Riddick (as a flex RB/WR), DaVaris Daniels... and then Daniel Smith, Chris Brown, and Davonte Neal in situational capacities that evolve as the year goes on. Maybe not on Brown/Smith, but I am absolutely sure Davonte Neal will get touches.

Brown but not Ferguson? I think Brown needs a year while Ferguson is physically ready now
