The kid definitely has had a lot of headwinds to deal with, between coaching and scheme changes, his own injury, key skill position player injuries etc. He is talented, and coming here with zero pressure on him is a positive for his development

So Angeli said this is probably the best receiver corps he’s had in his career.

I'm sure that could be a bit of an optomistic evaluation, but good to hear none the less.

I don’t think it’s just optimistic, it’s realistic. And that is without Russell

Could really see Zamondre & Weaver on the outside with Boobie in slot.

Love that trio.

Really curious if Cole is going to get used similarly to OG. Think Z can play inside or out, having older players blocking off tackle is never a bad look. Boobie is gonna ball out along with D Will and T Russell from the slot. He's my way too early prediction for leading receiver this year.

Really sounds like Hatcher is working himself into a starter on the outside. Start him and Cole Outside, Z and Boobie inside. Rotate Z outside as situation dictates or give Wilfong some go routes to save legs of the starters. Use D Will and T Russ against LBs or safeties in space. Outten seems like a work in progress but he's got all the athleticism he needs and then some.

I've been thinking that Zamondre and Cole Weaver would end up being the starting outside receivers for a while. There is a lot behind the order the coaches rattle of player names. I'd guess Umari would likely be next up out there behind Zamondre. I think Boobie and Russell share a bulk of the snaps in the main slot position and will both be solid. D Williams could get some there too as well and probably some on the outside also. That is for 3 wide looks. If we bump the TE out wide that will likely be Bacheyie a lot, but I guess we could move one of the outside guys in on some plays, weather it is Zamondre or Cole. I believe it was richmondcuse03 who said Cole was working some at the TE hybrid spot. I just feel like we want Cole out wide there a bunch as I think he is clearly in front of Moore, by listening to the rustle of the tea leaves in these interviews. If Cole were to move inside in 4 wide sets, I feel like the back-up there on that side is weaker than if Zamondre moves inside. If Zamondre moves inside I think we have Hatcher and Williams stepping in which are the better fill ins. Not sure if Hatcher is strong enough to step in out at Coles spot. I feel like we always want a strong physical guy at Cole's WR spot. I wonder if those WR's working some at that slot TE spot may be doing that more so as a just incase we get an injury to Bacheyie. That would be my guess.

Gattis didn't mention Samuel at all in that clip.
