What is Phillys receiver Corps like? I don't know what the deal is with Jeffery, tate, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the deal is with Jeffery, tate, etc Not great. Tate, Wallace and Aghalor will likely be gone. The tight ends (Ertz & Goddard) will again be the focal points. DJAX will definitely be an upgrade but they need at least one more reliable receiver, a possession type like Adam Humphries.

Wolverines Fan Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 DJax gone and Adam Humphries to the Titans. Chris Godwin's table is ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelredd9 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'm moving OJ Howard up a notch, too. Humphries' departure especially helps him. Without a slot receiver, the Bucs will use a ton of 2 tight end sets. Because of their glut of wide receivers and Cameron Brate, OJ Howard was usually playing about 65% of snaps last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was "supposed" to be talented enough to take targets *away* from teammates. If he's not doing that, then temper expectations as removing competition isn't the solution. He was "supposed" to beat out Brate and esstentially be the #2 behind Evans. The problem isn't how great everyone else is. I'll guarantee you he gets more volume. Especially now that Humphries is gone. That's a lot of targets gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya, but I don't think OJ was the problem. He never seemed to get the looks he should of. I think that's gonna change this year.

The Bucs had 4 quality wide receivers and 2 quality tight ends last year. Howard wasn't competing for snaps and targets with stiffs. Most teams don't have 3 quality receiving options much less 6. Howard might have also been the victim of poor coaching strategy. He is a beast. And you're probably right that he should have been featured more regardless of competition. He still was the 6th highest scoring fantasy tight end when he went on IR after week 11. And he had the second highest PFF grade for a tight end on the season mainly due to his 90.1 receiving grade (after an abysmal 61.4 overall grade his rookie year). Leftwich doesn't have much of a track record but Arians definitely didn't feature a tight end during his time in Arizona. But it was maybe just because he didn't have a quality tight end to feature. The Cardinals did use a 2nd round pick on receiving tight end Troy Niklas in 2014 which would indicate that Arians did want to feature a tight end in the passing game in Arizona. Any good coach is flexible in philosophy according to the players on the roster. Howard's best case scenario is that Arians will utilize him but want to cut/trade Brate (there has been a lot of chatter that Brate will be gone before his 2019 salary fully guarantees on March 17th). Over his entire career, Winston has been extremely effective throwing to tight ends (probably has something to do with his sidearm delivery). His stats are equal to any quarterback in the league when targeting tight ends. I think Howard is in line for a monster year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
