Does the WR room have potential, absolutely what I wouldn’t call it loaded because we only have two proven receivers on the roster right now

Honest question... which WR room in CFP would you find is "loaded"? Most only have one dude.

I know a lot will claim OSU as the low hanging fruit so I went to check top pass catchers

Smith 87 catches 1200 yds 12 td stud
Tate 51 catches 875 9td, but now graduated and gone
Klare (TE) 43 catches 448 yds 2 td
Innis 36 catches 271 yds 3 td
Bo Jackson (RB) 19 catches 200 yds 1 td
Kacmarek (TE) 15 catches 168 yds 1 td
CJ Donaldson 15 catches 96 yds 1 td
 
I don't know how Dawson is going to get all these guys involved.

The way I see it - Mali and Barkate are obviously your top 2. Vaughn and Jacobs are likely the next 2 up. I think Vaught starts on the outside. Then it gets muddled.

The way Wingo has flashed you have to figure he gets burn. If Moore makes a leap he has to be involved. If Upshaw is healthy he's a guy you want involved. Spafford will be the fastest guy in the room but I don't see how they get him in the mix. Evans almost certainly redshirts.

A lot of these guys will have to be happy with redshirting or waiting their turns. But that's not how it goes in the portal era. And even though we're technically Air Raid we're not going WSU 2018 and having 8 guys with over 25 catches.

Too many people to respond to, so I’ll just say this based off last year production that the position rooms that are considered LOADED are Dline, RB while DBs offensive line and wide receiver, had the most potential to be loaded


Rinse wash repeat y’all do this every

That's why I don't think we worry too much about getting a TE involved - just too many good targets to feed at WR.

Of course some of these guys will leave. Let them compete and see who comes out the best.
