I saw talk of Ehlers possibly being pursued by the Leafs. Gross. If that happens, never did like Ehlers.

Decent yardage well placed with good/great hangtime to allow our punt return guys to do their jobs is all I ask. -

Placement be damned i want a guy who can occasionally boom one to flip the field. What's his nuts has no hope of ever doing that. -
Yeah Clercius just looks like a guy that gets it... booch has been beating the drum but the hand catching... that's just amazing. Nothing more frustrating than receivers who catch with their bodies. A big strong dude like clercius just grabbing balls with authority is going to have success. I love wolitarsky but totally OK with them giving clecius the chance. He's done nothing but impress.
-
Sounds like the 1s at camp today were Demski, Schoen, Clercius, White Jr and Wheatfall... Fwiw.

Evans looks the part...and has solid background Punter guy looks...well like a gimmicky experiment...which failed...best talent should play and first look was pretty obvious...interesting how his second game looks... -
Yeah I seen a lot of progress in Clercius already last yr...and he doesn't need to be a yac machine...Woli wasn't... He is a big target and knows how to use his body to position himself to the ball...is a hand catcher...prob best pure hands on team and his hand strength is insane...perfect for that conversion type guy and getting dirty yards in traffic If u get chance watch some practices and if u able to get close to field...listen...guys like him you barely hear ball...if at all when it hits his hands...big sign look for in a pure pass catcher... He also made some plays last year after the catch where he made yards and destroyed would be tackles...he is gonna be a big piece and guy ZC will be looking for

Jets Preparing for Nikolaj Ehlers Exit as Free Agency Looms

I do agree that imp wr is very talent deep. But it’s still really hit or miss among top talents. I think dbs are next most replaceable after RBs, then wrs. Imp guards would be really high but no one really uses them. I don’t like the crazy expensive wr core approach. I get keeping a guy like schoen, but after that to sustain success you really gotta find guys cheap and develop them. He was crazy green and played a lot as a rookie. 2nd year is big for Canadians and wrs. What I saw is he did a fantastic job of playing with in him self and not trying to do too much. Usually you see kids trying to cheat or look down field before the ball arrives. Clercius played like a seasoned pro and did every thing we could want. If he played a premium pass catcher spot he could be a volume guy. The fact we moved on from woli when he wasn’t even paid that much says a whole lot. Most loves woli. True, if they think they can turn guys around they will bring them in. There was a Time when Wj was considered problematic. If they didn’t believe in the guys ability to be a fit in the locker room and market they wouldn’t. They don’t just ignore guys with a past.

To be fair we haven’t had much competition at P. Evan’s is ridiculously good though. We drafted him I can’t imagine we won’t play him if he kills it in camp. Thing is he can kick for 45-50 with drastically better hang time than Sheahan. And with less shanks. I think Evan’s would have to really crap the bed to not make the team. -

100% I thought we would of replaced the punter last season and that didn't happen.... nothing is 100% with O'Shea... -
I'll disagree on that. For sure any player has room for growth, but he's shown those two things any chance he's got to. Starting with the road game in Calgary when he caught a huge first down from Streveler on a 2nd and long when the receiving corps was pure chaos down our top two Americans. He played that role well when Wolitarsky was out last year. But our American receivers were mostly garbage last season. Wilson had some big games and otherwise was a disappearing act. No one else was even average in their role. He actually only had 2 games without a catch last year, which he didn't start. And he caught at least one pass for a first down in the majority of games he played. A lot of those being the 7 yard pass, get the 2-3 yards after that to convert. Clercius had the best percentage of targets caught of our regular receivers last season. I expect him to get 4-5 targets a game, and be in the range of 3-4 catches a game for 40-45 yards.

Meh, goes to show Import receivers are more dime a dozen than RB's are now, no need to spend big money in FA to bring in mid-tier receivers cut from other teams when you can raise your own crop. Reward the ones that succeed like Schoen and reward the ones that grow into the role like Myron Mitchell and Wheatfall have. D. Mitchell is getting beat out by multiple contestants, don't expect they should reward him by cutting other players that have out competed and performed better in the limited time allowed for evaluation.
-
Indeed. Woli has not been effectively replaced yet - hope that happens this year
-
Two things Clercius has not demonstrated yet, great YAC ability and the knowledge to break off his route to help out the QB, which Woli did so well. If he wants to become a main target these would be important areas to grow.
-
It would absolutely be the management way to bring in a toxic player if they think they can correct it. See: Jalen Saunders
-
Prob more about not being ready...and not used to doing things way we do here...as opposed to the Edmonton environment from which he came...maybe figured he'd just have to show up..and it woukd all work out..culture shock I said at the signing that a major score if his head space was right...I guess it needed to be righted a Lil Fact he's been paid big already gives him half a season mulligan so hopefully he makes best if it I'm seeing big Kev being that key conversion safety blanket guy this yr...I bet he gets north of 600 yards and 5 scores...lotsa 2nd down conversions
