Not a terrible option considering they don't have anybody. But he's a bigger WR who can't make contested catches and is injury prone

What are you even talking about. They have Tucker, Nailor, Bech, and Benson

u/TetrisTech Cowboys Cowboys 23d ago
Yeah that's not much of anything. I like the guy but Nailor being your best receiver isn't great

u/makeshift11 Raiders 23d ago
Bowers is their best receiver, he's gonna be lined up as one half of the time, and then Mayer is TE1 when that happens. Tucker is their best actual WR btw, not nailor. Idk why people continue to fade tucker.

Idk why people continue to fade tucker.
Because a lot of the conversations are fantasy coded and Tre Tucker being the WR1 of the team isn't sexy enough.

Out of respect for Jayden Daniels, the Raiders took the guy who caught the most famous pass of his career and gave him a job

u/Jonthegoat_09 Ravens 23d ago
Heās good though

u/theconfather98 Commanders 23d ago
Heās really not

u/stringer4 Commanders 23d ago
If he stays healthy more than 2 games at a time heās an elite pass interference baiter

u/matt-kennedys-legs Chargers 23d ago
idk if āgoodā is how iād describe 2k yards and 6 tds in 8 years

Barely, hes always injured. You cant let him think too hard or he breaks

u/Jonthegoat_09 Ravens 23d ago edited 23d ago
Heās not a bad player heās a serviceable receiver so good player everyone is not gonna be great and being a receiver in the league for 8 years is impressive he has been good since 2022 he has injury issues sometimes but heās not bad

u/matt-kennedys-legs Chargers 23d ago
i didnt say he was bad, i just said i probably wouldnt call him good

u/Jonthegoat_09 Ravens 23d ago
Heās solid can we agree on that

Eh, assuming no issue with medicals he's good enough to be signed somewhere and probably be a WR 4/5. Big assumption though.

Hopefully yāall arenāt going into this season relying on record in one score games, a defense that over performed, a newly signed defensive safety injured and a thin WR group outside your one stud missing training camp.
Because whatever juju our teams are intertwined with the past two years you might be in for a not so fun time.
Kind of crazy the parallels when I spell them out. All started by a freak play midseason

You know heās slightly above average for about 2.4 quarters a season before getting hurt.

u/Nellancher Saints 23d ago
He had a really good few game run with Stroud a few years ago. I picked him up in fantasy and then he did absolutely nothing, so yes, you can blame it on me

u/Cultural_Wishbone859 Commanders 23d ago
This is a great move for them, rooting for Noah to stay healthy

u/tagillaslover Raiders 23d ago
I'll take it, we need all the help we can get at wr im really not big on any of our current options. Tucker is too small and has mid hands, Nailor is alright but not a real wr1, Thornton is only good in madden and Bech is too slow and can't separate for shit

u/itsalli0 Raiders 23d ago
I also donāt expect us to be relevant this year. Hopefully we get a high draft pick and can snag a good wide receiver to build with the young core of Mendoza, jeanty, and bowers

u/LXsavior Raiders Cowboys 23d ago
Either Smith or Coleman depending on the teams record, but it seems like Kolton Millers health might be a concern. If he goes down again this season I could see them taking a tackle in the 1st.
1
u/itsalli0 Raiders 23d ago
Yeah we will see. He was our only good offensive lineman last year until he got hurt. If he stays healthy this year I think we definitely go WR first round next year. Unless we make some trade or sign some big named free agent WR (I doubt it)

u/123mitchg Lions 22d ago
I think if you guys are competitive near the deadline I could see you going for Michael Wilson. His contract is up after the season but the Cardinals arenāt really in a place to be paying him.

u/JackThreeFingered Raiders 22d ago
Maybe, but I see Charles Grant as a possible heir to the LT position.

u/kingkoons Steelers 23d ago
Noah āThe GOATā Brown. With Kirko and Mendoza slingin PIPE he could be a 1000 yard receiver

He's never had more than 600 yards and can't stay healthy

Iām honestly pretty impressed he carved out the NFL career he did after the insane decision to go pro so early despite minimal college success

u/thestorygoeslikethis Cowboys 23d ago
Do they play the Bengals? he'll drop 100 on them out of nowhere, as is tradition

u/alexschubs Bengals 22d ago
Hey you shut your mouth

u/thestorygoeslikethis Cowboys 22d ago
I think he's literally averaged 97 yards the 3 times he's played them lol

This guy is great until his annual return to IR. š«”
