Re: Training Camp 2018
I think Doctson winds up being a guy that makes occasional clutch catches and is huge in the red zone. I don't ever seeing him being a perennial 1000+ yard guy. We spread the ball around a lot.
Our passing game could look something like:
Reed: 950 yards
Crowder: 900 yards
Richardson: 850 yards
Doctson: 750 yards
Thompson: 500 yards
All Others: 400
Total: 4350
That's a quite likely scenario. If injuries happen and Reed can't play enough to get to 950 then it's Crowder and Vernon that get the extra, I think.
Point is, it's hard to see Doctson getting heavily featured in this offense like an AJ Green. Smith loves going to tight ends and he's obviously building a rapport with Crowder. And if Guice is what we think he is, we'll pound the rock more and 4350 passing yards is probably the absolute ceiling.
I won't measure Doc based on his catches or yardage. I'll measure him based on red zone performance - he should get us 8+ TDs with those hops - and the number of clutch/spectacular catches he makes in critical situations.
