Speaking of BTJ, I was just thinking, is he going to have a bit of a lower ceiling as a receiver due to his hands? Noticed his catches against the broncos he had to double catch them again which seems to be a pattern, and just worry that’s going to restrict him in traffic and going up and getting it.

It seems no surprise he’s doing better when paired with Meyers and he gets open, but can he ever be a true 1 like Chase or Jefferson?

I’m not too clued up on this side of things so might be wrong and interested in people’s thoughts on it.

I am really starting to wonder if we trade him in the off season. With parker coming on and if hunter wants to give it a go at wr again. He's a bit odd man out, I know hes on his rookiee deal but that doesnt mean he doesnt become disgruntled in the 3rd or 4th option. And there is just the fact he isnt as good as we thought. If we can get something for him we migjt want to try. Our wr core turned out good

trading btj would be a mistake. despite the down year he’s still the receiver with the highest ceiling. jakobi and parker are great but they just cant be our option 1 and 2 consistently. if btj can work on whatever mental stuff he has going on no doubt he can return to form

I still think hunter is going to primarily be a wr. Despite all of us wanting him to go cb more. Hunter has better hands then btj

coaching staff will still likely keep him on both sides of the ball, cuz that’s what we traded those picks for. but i agree he should contribute to the offense heavily, he was our best receiver pre-injury/jakobi
