Dexter has a lot of work to do. An off season of chasing chickens would do miracles for his career. The more they can do to loosen his hips the better. He has God given country strength and he relies on it to make plays. That is definitely good enough to be a solid piece of the puzzle. He also plays with his pads square to the line of scrimmage, ass he rarely gets turned. That is great in the run game. If he can adapt to sinking his hips and getting off quicker, sky is the limit. Some people can't do it while others can.. If he can't, I'd have him gain 15 pounds and become a 1T that can generate pressure.
Agreed the math is not the important issue, but your reply is still off point. Commenting the obvious, multiple thousand yard receivers is not a new thing. So if we get a stud receiver and our QB throws for 4K yards, another 1300 yard reciever is possible regardless of attempts.
I wish I could have watched the game. I listened to Thayer and he's usually spot on. He said Justin looked really good the first three quarters and questioned whether the fourth quarter stuff is Getsy or Fields.
I heard something pretty damning on the radio this morning. There is audio out there of the USC players celebrating and saying "we're a team now" during their bowl game without Williams. There were also other things heard, rumblings about selfishness and ego.
I can see where it's easy to be that way in today's atmosphere, but a humbling must happen before he can succeed at the pro level. Given our past, I'll go the George Pickens and and Jalen Carter route and let him be someone else's problem.
If everything remains the same schematically, 100% yes. If you look at how quickly he picked up the offense and executed the things Justin still hasn't, year two of Bagent should show growth at a way faster rate. What Bagent couldn't process was how NFL quality DB's close down a window. You just don't see that from four years at Shepard. He'll also continue to gain arm strength with pro coaching. Year two of Bagent will be better than what we've seen of year three of Justin. (That's W's and eye test)
In a keep Fields thread, I think this checks a lot of boxes. Was thinking we could convert Johnny Wilson to a move TE. Between he and Lachey, we can send Tonyan to BFE...
I only have 7, with the rest being depth. My list goes: C, WR, LT, edge, 3T, move TE and P.
Poles holds my 8th spot if he sends we need a QB. That priority would change to 1.
