WR asking prices to plummet for the trades and the FA market. Some (a few) guys will try to wait for the 1st and 2nd injury wave during pre-season to early season (game 4).
with at the WR position in FA. Who would we be waiting to sign? OBJ? Unless there is a surprise cut after the draft that is intriguing I think any remaining moves at WR will be draft picks. There are actually 12 WR’s under contract right now.
When you look at the current group, there are at least 4 players we know are locks for the roster barring injury. I would say Jeff Smith is a lock as he was an early FA pickup and has great speed for special teams. That’s 5 WR’s. Add in an early round draft pick and that’s the typical 6 WR’s teams tend to carry. If Robinson starts the season on PUP it likely leads to either another draft pick or one of the last 7 in the list below making the initial roster as the 6th WR.
Hodgins (lock)
Slayton (lock)
Robinson (lock, may start on PUP)
Campbell (lock)
Jeff Smith (probably a lock due to ST abilities)
Collin Johnson (bubble)
Shepard (bubble)
Dre Miller (bubble)
Sills (camp guy)
Polk (camp guy)
Pimpleton (camp guy)
Mickens (camp guy)
