FWIW......no NFL team has the ability to replace 4 veteran WRs during the season.
Roger Lewis seems to actually have some professional ability.....but he's very raw.
Not even sure it's worth going crazy to find a whole new receiver corps right now. Just try and run and live with what we've got and just not get Eli killed.
I hear you chiller.....it's not like we had 10 guys rehearsing for the WR spot. But....let's be honest......who are these guys we are going to pick up right now that are significantly better than who we have right now? They aren't going to pick up our entire playbook in one week. MAYBE give Cruz one more go after it......but....Cruz couldn't make the Bears roster and they have a very forgettable WR corps.
How aggressive do you want to be for a team that already was 0-5 and probably would be better served to hang on to their draft picks instead of trying to get desperate?
At some point the Giants will pluck one of somebody's mid-season WR cuts and suit them up if Rudolph and Tavares King can't get anything going (I think Roger Lewis is actually ok......not good....but at least seems to be able to hang on to the football). Still......we're just better off focusing on running as best as we can and trying to play keep away.
Engram is going to be getting a lot of work the rest of the season. Hope he stays healthy......otherwise it will get UGLY.
