Sammy Watkins, Terrelle Pryor, Paul Richardson, Moncrief...

 

Also....

 

Jordan Matthews and Marquis Lee.

 

For WR2,  that's about it unless there are some other surprise cuts in the next 36 hours....   like Dez Bryant.

 

One other thought....

 

I don't think of Moncrief as WR2...   I think he's more WR3...

Wow. This is the guy I wanted for the Colts. But $14m/year? Never thought he’d get that. FA is EXPENSIVE today. Guess we’re looking at mid tier players. Got to adjust the expectations. 

I'm feeling the same way. I was hoping for at least one bigger name at a needed position (Norwell or Robinson were my favorites), so far that doesn't look like it's going to happen. We have a lot of holes to fill on offense and defense, I would hate for Luck to walk in with LESS help than what he had before he got hurt. If we get an OL built, can't complain on bit though.

He's more like injured reserve.

    • It just seems like people have sold themselves the idea he was going to come out great this season which I think is and was completely unreasonable.   I hope to see some improvement by the end of the season, but I really don't expect a whole lot until sometime next season. AR has got so much catching up to do.   I mean, there's no doubt AR's struggles are affecting MPJ, but MPJ has never been a great separater and seeing a defender right besides MPJ is probably stopping AR from throwing his way at this point.   Also, to be clear, I'm not saying AR will DEFINITELY be great, but I do think we DEFINITELY don't know yet and people need to be a lot more patient with him.
    • They both couldn’t throw or work on footwork. To ignore this could be a possibility with AR is naive. Let’s see where he is by game 7. Especially when it looks like he went backwards  from last season.
    • Other than the fact that Luck was a proven NFL QB in his prime and that his shoulder rehab lasted 3x as long.   
    • His lack of experience was a well-known risk in drafting him and it's a big reason why some were skeptical (including me). On the flip side, it sort of seemed like people disregarded his lack of experience then in favor of things like potential and upside. But now he's struggling and it's showing. If anything, it's validated those initial concerns.   I tend to think WR drops following a QB from college to the NFL says as much about the QB as it does the pass catchers. But they need to do better. I think it will take a combination of improvements from both AR and the pass catchers.   Not sure if something is up with MPJ, but some "regression" this year was very predictable. At one point, I actually thought he might leave in FA when faced with prospect of re-signing with a run-first team and a young QB who is still learning how to throw short and intermediate passes (the area he operates). But he stayed...and I am glad he did. But if it continues, there are going to be a lot of people blaming MPJ, which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about just 6 months ago, people were talking about how great of a contract it was and that MPJ was a legit WR1 with AR.  
    • Last week,Rams home game, Sofi looked like a 49ers home game. Dallas and Vegas are that way too.
