Default We need another WR-- and the market is open

Some really interesting names being floated around:
Allen Robinson
AJ Green
Nelson Agholor
All 3 apparently being dangled for not a lot. AJ isn't what he once was but he is what Rivers has traditionally excelled with.

Amari Cooper and Will Fuller are also being kicked around as possible trade bait- though both of those guys would call for solid compensation in return. I would love to see Fuller here, immediate replacement of TY's big play potential.

Then there's Kenny Stills and John Ross- basically the same guy in my view and both capable of big plays but aren't the day in day out get it done guy I think we need.

To me this is the missing piece that will keep us from being a legit threat down the stretch. TY looks done to me. Pittman doesn't look like he is about to flip the switch this season. Doubt we see Paris again this year. While I like Johnson and Pascal- they are not guys that bring potential game changing qualities over an 8 to 10 game stretch to the field.

Houston isn't trading Fuller to a division rival.

I'd like to see them move Hines outside more and let JT and Wilkens split carries

The Harris kid is also someone I want to see get some playing time. He and Hines can be mismatches to defenses

Is TY just done? I know he came out of the game with injury but he just doesn’t seem the same this season. Is it just the way rivers plays the position? Scheme? Can he not get separation any more?

Would be fine with that. Catches everything and fights for yards.

Allen Robinson would cost DeForest Buckner money to keep, AJ Green is basically done, and this thread is the first time I've seen Nelson Agholor brought up in a positive context in some time. No thanks to all unless the Bears are willing to sign Robinson first and eat the guaranteed money.

It may be a result of Rivers spreading the ball out as opposed to the days when TY was Luck's security blanket. I don't know what to think about him. I may get shit for this but I never thought he was a true WR1 but that's comparing him to the likes of Wayne which is probably unfair.

He would have had a big game last game, but got robbed by the refs. I think Rivers is used to bigger receivers but honestly I’m not sure. We’ve needed to find receivers for several years now.
