Rank the roster gunna be real interesting next year for those 4 guys.

Wicks should ‘probably’ be 4th among those 4, however I think he’s the most likely to take that step to being that guy.

I think Watson and Reed have obvious defined roles.

The real battle will be between Wicks and Doubs. I think Wicks has the better release, hands, and is a little better after the catch. Doubs might have a little more explosiveness.

Camp is going to be most interesting between those two.

Wicks and Watson are the best blockers so that could make a difference in snap counts

Doubs is so easy to count out. Whenever you start to, he just outproduces everyone else and has the biggest most clutch catches.

It's a great luxury to have all of these receiving weapons + Aaron Jones.

I hadn't opened this thread since this post back in April. Can anyone explain what this guy is talking about? Obviously there is some other metric he is using to determine tiers, so I am curious what he means.

Off of the top of my head, hitting maybe like 5 thresholds. Size, change of direction, jumping, something else, something else, etc, so on and so forth. Those were the guys hitting all 5 I believe.

Ya'all should buy a Joe Touri jersey

Wicks and Melton catch over 60% targeted passes, it's taken both a little time to build the chemistry of 2nd year Doubs, or the more polished Reed, who where the starters, so more snaps and both could put up big numbers, both play physical and win contested balls, block well, is there a number one? who cares, the quantity of quality supersedes the need for a alpha dog imho, Watson if he ever figures out the hams was drafted to be that guy, but at this stage just being a great contributor, stretching a defense with a occasional big play works for me, the ability to spread it around as we have is so hard to defend.
