2017 Wide Receivers

I get the feeling that we're going to be just fine at WR this fall.

- Phillips. Goes without saying. He'll be the leader and #1 guy.
- Kumah. It sounds like he was having a very solid spring before he got injured. He started going up for jump balls and I think he'll be solid in the fall.
- Patterson. I believe the coaching staff was very high on him going into the spring based on his development in the fall. He had a couple of nice plays in the spring game.
- Farley. I'd be shocked if the kid ends up on defense after his performance on Sat. I just wish he had played WR for the entire spring to increase his development going into fall camp. He made plays against Faycson on Sat. It wasn't like it was a true freshman CB.
- Keene. He's an H-Back, but I think he will get a lot of balls thrown his way. Fuente said he has picked up the position well and he is a good athlete.
- CJ Carroll. He was out for the spring, but he was reliable last season.
- Pimpleton. Dynamic athlete with the ball in his hands. Hopefully they can get him the ball in space (screens, quick slants)
- Murphy. It sounds like he was having a good spring until he got hurt. Hopefully he continues to develop.
- James Clark. The guy has legit speed. He isn't big, but I think he could be a guy similar to Carroll and Pimpleton. However, i could also see him being used on vertical routes.
- Denmark. He's a fast kid. I haven't heard too much about him.

I think there is a lot of talent at WR that just needs some experience. Thankfully, Patterson and Kumah arrived early last year and this was their second spring. Carroll also got good experience last season.
