What is preventing Ike Hilliard and Gruden from replacing J. Doctson with Mo Harris?

Mo Harris is a #4 WR on most rosters

He may be, but I swear if Harris was on the Pats they'd get production out of him. Look at what they're doing w/ Patterson.

O yeah but they would get production out of you and me too lol

I think the FO felt we had enough talent on the roster to put off signing any WR help this year. ON PAPER we still look pretty formidable. We've got Reed, Davis, Thompson, Crowder... They added Guice which would have been huge and A. Smith has generally utilized those positions (TE & RB) more so than his wide-outs.

Now that the production hasn't come from the TE's and Backfield our lack of talent at wideout has been exposed.

It's definitely an issue, but I still don't think shuffling in some JAG's is going to improve it. I'm afraid this is a problem that won't be fixed until the off-season.

And Doctson too.

No....Harris is not a pro bowler....but he is undrafted and has been more impressive than 1st rd pick Josh Doctson...through 8 games Doctson has only 19 receptions for a sour 190 yards....that is piss poor production for a WR the team invested a 1st rd pick on....he only had 40 catches for 550 yards last year....it doesn't matter where a player is drafted....or if he's drafted at all....what matters is the production that a player has....and Harris has done more in one game (10 receptions for 124 yards versus Atlanta) than Doctson has all season long...that's all I'm saying....



I agree with you to be honest, but im not the FO with egg on my face, and im not paying these people so....

I needed to work in my shop so I listened to the game on the radio as I also did last Sunday. The radio broadcast team especially Cooley was brutal evaluating Mo Harris, saying he was always looking to lay down after catching the ball. My TV died yesterday and can't be watching videos with data capped satellite internet, so I have to trust the broadcast team. Is the guy obviously afraid of contact?

Harris is soft, but so is our entire WR group. Yesterday the announcers were saying "this team just has nobody to get separation" as I've said all yr watching tape. It's not all Alex's fault, yeah he has been very AVG. but he really has nobody to throw too.

im all for seeing more of this guy. i guess alex smith will ultimately decide.

yeah... about that..

I don't know. WR's can and do create separation but QB's also create separation. Sure we don't have an elite WR but we do have good targets. Smith was too scared to throw the ball. That was the problem. I felt like I was watching Jason Campbell all over again.. I spent a decade defending Alex Smith when he was on other rosters but man.. the guy was terrified of making a mistake throwing it but sure would take a sack in a heartbeat.

I don't expect Colt to light 'em up, but I suspect the offense will look a little better under him if he can find a rhythm early. Get the running game working, give Colt some screens and 8-10 yard out routes and I'm betting he takes some shots. I was thrilled when we signed Alex but honestly I think we're in better hands with Colt. Try to steal an early lead, run the ball 35 times and limit Colt to 20-25 throws and I think we win tomorrow. Defense has to takeover this game and I think they'll come out ready to break the will of this Dallas team early.
