About a month ago there was some speculation on here about which WR could be on the outer, with the drafting of Jarvis Landry. I speculated that it could be Rishard Matthews, who could miss out. However, after practice game #2, you can throw that dumb thinking away. Rishard looked great, in limited playing time in both games. He looks physically stronger and set to take his game to the next level. He is one of Lazor's weapons and could excel in the new Offense.
 
He has been looking real good. loved that TD. Showed flashes last year. He is our 4th. Its MW,BH,BG,RM,JL and maybe 1 more. I like how DW#1 looked tonight.
 
The team is very deep at WR. Gibson and Landry look good also, and Hartline is steady and reliable. Wallace looks like he's going to be more of decoy and appears to be the weakest of all the receivers. I dont trust him to make a critical play.
 
I'm loving the fact that we have so many options in the passing game.
 
In this offense there is no #1 nor is Wallace is not the best option. He can sit inactive on Sunday's and the Dolphins won't miss him.
 
The Dolphins are DEEP in WRs................wow, i have not thought that in a while (please no one say we can trade one)
 
When was the last time we were deep at WR? It's a good feeling to have knowing we have multiple options that are good at the position.

I for one never speculated that. I thought it would be common sense our WR would be Hartline, Wallace (terrible), Gibson, Landry and Matthews. Those 5 were virtual locks even before preseason began. I think we'll keep a 5th and stash another on the PS. That 5th could be Williams with the thought he'd be signed away from the PS, leaving Binns out.
 
So when we need a deep play, I'd be more comfortable sending any of the other WR deep and throwing to them instead of Wallace. The dude can't catch and is unreliable. He played well in Pittsburgh but looks like his skills have diminished greatly.. And he's a p***y

Don't overreact. Wallace looked great the other day at practice, even catching a very long bomb against Grimes. He's still a big time weapon, the deep ball he missed last night wasn't easy. The good thing about having so many other weapons is that somebody else can step up. I have a hunch that Wallace will be reminded how much more he is paid than the other guys. In a way the poor showing helps to deflate his fantasy draft stock.
 
I think we may keep 6 this year Wallace, Hartline, Gibson, Williams, Matthews, and Landry
 
Add in that Matthews is paid NFL lunch money in under $600K this year and $650K next year.
 
Kinda crazy when your highest paid player is your weakest link at wide receiver.
