When Kupp’s back

[Varg6]

I’m thinking the lineup should be Kupp, Puka, and Tutu, with seeing a little more Sko.

I think I’ve seen enough of Jefferson.

But either way, I think we have a very solid group of receivers.

What are you guys thinking?

 

[Q729]

I'm thinking we need Stafford healthy if any of them are to matter. Anyone have any info?

I think when Kupp returns healthy & 100%, it will be time to trade Van Jeff ...

 

[Neil039]

Kupp, Puka, and Higbee. The rest are interchangeable. Unless (like in another post) Pitts is nabbed from Atlanta.

Yah mean so say, there is a limit???

In the press conference Stafford says he'll be playing next week.

Pitts would play in the slot. Would you pull Kupp out for him? I wouldn't. I wouldn't pull Nacua out for him either.

Hell of a talent but it is hard to see big return on him as an acquisition. Taylor would give us a lot more IMO. Or an edge, though I would not touch our first rounder in this draft unless someone special hits the market.

I'll be honest... I'm not sure how much Pitts loves football.

I've watched him a few times and just don't know. Maybe it's because they don't use him and he's not happy.. I don't know. But there seems to be a lack of passion there.

Or I could be imagining things. But the numbers make no sense.

Also... I don't believe the Rams need any more targets, once Kupp is back. We'll see Higs and Tutu benefit from his presence as well.

I said it in another thread... I think the pass game is going to look more like it did with OBJ than it did with Bobby Woods. I like Woods.. but I think Puca is a different beast who can hurt defenses more than Woods.

This team needs a deep threat. A talker guy with real speed and good hands. That would open things up.

But yeah. Kupp and Nacua, then likely Atwell.

I'm salivating at the thought of puka with kupp and then driving teams nuts with tutu sneaking out running free. He has been doing a great job RT now as a 2nd sort of banana but that's going to make teams wince I guess that's where a Taylor would help but I still want a legit edge.......

Also please sign wentz already I understand the thought of Stafford getting hurt might as well tank at that point but no I'm not a tanking type guy.

Elephant in the room

 

[TexasRam]

I'm not a Jefferson fan but he does have value as a 4th WR since he has been in the system so long.

Sometimes that 4th WR gets no attention and can be a good alternate option.

Is that not Tutu? Burner with legit 4.2/4.3 speed and surprisingly good hands through contact for someone his size

We need a Wentz type, I don't understand how we're comfortable with Rypien. Stetson was supposed to be that guy but nobody knows what's going on there and no point in asking.

Going with Rypien at backup QB is the equivalent of going with Zach Thomas as backup LT. Automatic forfeit in case of injury

What if Tutu, Kupp or Puca get injured?

Puca is a virtual clone of Woods (possibly a superior Woods) and plays the Z mostly. OBJ was an X receiver who could wreck things running fades and backside digs.

That's not Puca's game.

I'm quite comfortable with rotating in Skowronek, Robinson and/or Tyler Johnson, ... we also have the 12 Personnel option.

 

[WestCoastRam]

Cause it's likely to happen so why not have Jefferson available for however many games we need him if one is out of the lineup for any time. That's far more valuable than any trade value we could get for him (except for maybe the desperate Panthers).

Plus, I'm stoked by what I've seen from Tutu lately but wonder how he'll look playing the X a bunch more. Think he's been taking a decent amount of snaps at F which Kupp will take over when he's back.
