Unless Greg Jennings is put on ir, I don't see Gurley being promoted to the 53 man roster.

The good thing about this receiving corpse is the fact that all 4 vets can play any wr position.

Randall Cobb is the wild card here, I'm not sure if he has had time to learn all the positions but he has saw time in the "slot", so he can pick up the slack of losing Jennings for the rest of the regular season.(hopefully not that long)

If another team has shown interest in Gurley, then it will be up to Ted to make the decision whether to offer him a spot or letting him go.

I just don't see a spot available to him at this point, Clifton had a setback but it has been reported he hopefully will be ready in the next 2 weeks. That is the only spot i see available right now.

But yes, he is explosive.

Interesting that the tallest receiver on this team is pulling in the lowest percentage of targets.

I understood that. Hence my statement that he is bringing in the lowest percentage of targets that come his way.

Interesting stuff, Z2C. Honestly, I'm surprised, that Cobb has the highest percentage on this team, as I remember a couple of drops.

There might be 2 reasons.
A: He's that explosive to get rid of the defender very quick
B: As the #5 WR on the team he's facing only the lower talented DBs

I guess it's a combination of both, it'll be interesting to see him now as he has to get more responsibilities with Greg out.
