    Everyone is making moves but us and we need another WR that will take the pressure off Pickens

    They have plenty of cap space to trade for a WR, giving up the draft picks in return could be the problem.

    Here is the way I see it.....

    The game plan is to control time of possession. They use a lot of play action with the pass and the run complimenting each other from the same formations. Up until last week, they were unable to get the defense to not stack the box to stop the run. once the defense gets burned deep on several occasions, then the run becomes much more effective which takes over at the end of games.

    So with a strong defense, a ball controlled offense maybe the thought is they will pursue a chance to upgrade the WR but they aren't willing to give up what it would take to get it. Factor in that WR for this offense is not that appealing based on our offense play the first 7 games and that these WR's do not want to come play for us.

    I do think we need another top name WR but I don't see it happening.

    Everyone? A few teams made trades, we have tried (so the media says) and it has not worked. TB lost 2 star WR's (one for the season), it's not like Omar can make the call ans deal done. Should we have had a better plan, no doubt, should we panic and over spend in draft capitol and possible future CAP hit, no.

    EXACTLY THIS media yet I would sprinkle some "POASTERS" here who keep on with the BS.

    The team has shown in every game so far all numbers are being called. Best be ready.

    There has been so many untrue stories and so much unneeded drama.

    I don't know what Khan was planning on doing, but right before the draft he had Alex Highsmith's contract redone to open up $7 million. Khan then did nothing with this money, so he missed on something.

    This happened when Khan was all in on Brandon Aiyuk.

    and I will go on record - I see talent w Van Jefferson. Let's see if Wilson can find him.

    i still believe in CA3. Yes, his drop was awful on Sunday, but Wilson can help him too.

    RW can spread this ball around and all over the field.

    get the OL healthy, run the ball and sprinkle some passes in.

    this WR corps is not as bad as some make it out to be.

    And none of those receivers will stop teams from using double coverage on Pickens.
