They believe that Chad O'Shea can be a guy that gets Xavier Worthy over 1,000 yards.
And then, I mean, I don't know what he can get out of everybody else.
I mean, hey, Tyquan Thornton is a little bit of a wild card.
I mean, a full season based on what he did last year, a full season with better coaching and a better offense in theory, maybe he could get you in that 600 to 800-yard range.
And if somebody gets hurt, maybe he can step up and be more than that.
I don't know what Jalen Royals can be because we never got to see him last year.
I don't even know if he's going to ever be completely healthy in the NFL.
I mean, we're going to find out about that.
And, yeah, I mean, other than that, I mean, they've got a lot of guys who are either just absolutely complete wild cards or, honestly, guys that you're just not expecting much from.
I mean, they're banking on really three guys.
And I think even Cyrus Allen, I think they're banking on him being a contributor this year, not just the guy that goes out there and gets you 200 yards in year one.
I'm kind of impressed with what I have seen thus far.
I think he is more polished than we have seen of maybe some other receivers of that ilk and that kind of day three mind frame.
I mean, at this point, I'm more impressed with what I've seen from Cyrus Allen than I was from Jalen Royals last year.
I mean, I think this is a guy that, you know, once again, it's going to come down to some opportunities, and it's going to come down to execution there, too.
I'm always on the low side of what I expect from rookie receivers under Andy Reid in year one, because usually if they perform well, like you've seen, you saw Rishi Rice and Xavier Worthy put up numbers.
Those were out of necessity, and those weren't numbers for good offenses.
