Which receiver is gone next year?

hieroglyphics · May 1, 2015

Obviously Baldwin, Richardson, Kearse and Tyler Lockett.

Who hangs around though? Do we carry more than 5 receivers?

Still have Norwood, Lockette, & Matthews

Kennedyin92 · May 1, 2015

My guess is that Richardson will start the season on the PUP list. In my opinion the only must-keep from the current group is Baldwin anyway.

Richardson will start on PUP. So we start the year with Baldwin, Kearse and Lockett as locks. I think Norwood is a likely lock as well. I personally think after the Superbowl Mathews will be given a chance, and will have to play himself off the roster. What he flashed in the Superbowl is what they have been looking for since Pete got here.

I like Lockette as a gunner, but he has no value as a receiver and wouldn't keep him over anybody else. He will probably start the year on the roster, but be dropped after Richardson is activated.

I think Baldwin, Lockette and Kearse will be gone next year. I can't tell u why cause idk but I just have a feeling.

Rite now it seems Lockette is gone and if the Hawks pick-up another WR through the draft,trade,free agency then Kearse will be gone too, I think/hope. Better ways to spend 2.35 mill then on Kearse.

1.Baldwin
2.Richardson
3.Lockett
4.Norwood
5.Mathews

These 5 are locks imo.

Next year, the obvious answer is Kearse. This year you're looking at Baldwin, Kearse, Lockett, Matthews, Lockette, Norwood, Richardson (who will be PUP'd) to open the year.

Tical21 · May 1, 2015

If I'm Baldwin, I'm a little worried about my long-term future. Lockett has to project as a slot.

hieroglyphics · May 1, 2015

You guys forgetting just how big Kearse has been for us in the big games?

I don't think Norwood is worth keeping over Kearse. Ultimately you want a guy who can make the big time plays when they count.

vin.couve12 · May 1, 2015

I think you have to look at the redundancy of Richardson, Norwood, and Lockett in the slot particularly if you're Doug Baldwin. Doug CAN play on the outside, but he's not nearly as effective there as Kearse and it really looks like Matthews is going to take a lot of reps there. You also factor in having Jimmy play basically every position as well.

We'll keep 6

Kearse
Matthews
Baldwin
Richardson
Norwood
Lockett
Lockette

I listed 7 because Richardson probably isn't going to play for at least the full first 6 weeks on PUP. Beyond that it will all sort itself out through injury.

I think we add Vince Mayle too though. I'm not going to assume that everyone stays healthy. Neither will PC and JS.

kearse is very average

the patriots had clutch receivers who were average that they let go. the seahawks will do the same.

I am pretty sure Richardson with his skill set projects as a #2 receiver. I agree about Baldwin, to many slot receivers. If one develops he is the one that gets bumped. Norwood also has more potential on the outside with his size then Baldwin.

I am hopeful of Mathews, but not holding my breath. I am sure he will be given a harder look this off season. We'll see if he sinks or swims. Ideally I'd like to start the season with Mathews and Norwood as the starters on the outside, and Lockett and Baldwin splitting time at the slot.

Kearse will be cut after 10 preseason drops.

mikeak · May 1, 2015

Remember Matthews had ONE game for us last year. Sure it was a great game and yes his profile is not matched on the team but we now have Graham for redzone.

Not saying he is gone but he better bring it this years training camp....

You cant be serious? No way they move up in the draft and take a guy in the 2nd round to drop him.

vin.couve12 · May 1, 2015

You really have to be pretty thick skulled to think Kearse is going anywhere. He's literally the only guy on the team who's made big plays on the outside with any measure of consistency that we have.

Which receiver is gone next year?
