In case you haven't noticed he's the best WR on the team and it's not really close. Link below

He's #2, but it's def. by a landslide over Tyler at this point. We're lucky to have 3 damn good WR's, and some TE's with legit talent.

After watching the video, I noticed Lucas still has a better anchor than Cross, just like their rookie year. In fact, Cross was flat on the ground twice lol.

For sure. Lucas is slow, but immovable once he gets his hands on guys. Cross is more athletic and less prone to getting beat around the edge, but he gets blown up quite a bit.

Whatever number who is, DK and JSN compliment each other fantastically, and we need to make sure neither goes anywhere for the foreseeable future.

*sigh*

We need to try to differentiate between the position of WR1 and being the most productive receiver. They aren’t one and the same.
Would you differentiate for us? I love the game but never played, so when I read WR1 I assume we’re talking most productive. I would appreciate knowing the difference.

Love it.

It's a little later than I expected IMO - but I love it.

Maybe having DK out for a couple games gave him the little launching pad he needed.

Not kidhawk, but WR1 refers to the place on the Wide Receiver depth chart.

He'll be the primary target/first read for most routes and you'll typically design your passing game around their strengths. For example, DK's bigger/stronger/faster than most WRs in the league (and most CBs who will be defending him), so you'll design your playbook to take advantage of those aspects of his game.

This doesn't mean they'll always be the most productive (even though they typically will), because you can use those aspects of your WR1 to free up receivers further down the depth chart.

For example, DK being such a threat to go over the top with his speed means he can carry defenders deep and clear out openings for receivers running routes underneath.

The most productive wide receiver is often called the #1 receiver but WR1 is a position. The plays call out assignments by position so WR1 will have specific asks on any given play but so will WR2, WR3, etc.

This is spot on and I’d add that the #1 is typically the X receiver in most offenses. This could be changing as the league has spread things out. DK is the “X”.
