WR Packages

[TShram03]

Britt/Quick

Britt/Bailey

Quick/Bailey

Which duo ends up with most snaps in base 21/12 personnel, whether Tavon is on the field or not?

Which duo is your preferred tandem?

Britt/Quick has got to be the preference due to dynamic ratios (size x athleticism), but Sted just seems so damn smooth and reliable...

**I'm not really considering Tavon a WR for this exercise. He'll of course get his 1st-team # of snaps every game, but they will come from different positions on the field, RB and WR**

I'm in the Quick & Britt camp

After Britt, I think the #2 spot gets equal snaps for Quick and Baily. Baily is the true WR per all reports...and Quick, the better athlete is still learning and will be a stud, but it is good to throw more looks at a defense. Baily will have 40+ receptions I hope, with Quick at 45 or so---I hope.

If it was up to me Bailey and Quick, but unfortunately they took my say away from me.

I don't know where you get this. Britt/quick is the base set. Everyone else rotates on package. Unless I'm missing something.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm happy if we've got a fight on for which WR we have on the field - Britt/Quick, Britt/Austin, Britt/Bailey, Austin/Bailey, Britt/Givens, Britt/Pettis - its all good, as long as they catch the ball, get those yards after catch and secure a first down - they're all capable of being top WRs - in the right play formation. My jury is still out on Quick though, he's an "I'll believe it when I see it" guy for me I'm sorry.

What excites me is that we have plenty of variety.

Austin, Bailey, Britt, Givens, Pettis, Quick add in Cook and Kendricks thats not a bad list of ball-catchers guys - as long as they can catch the ball

I agree; I just think over time, depending on oppenent and game situations that Baily will rotate in 50% with Britt or Quick....(more likely QUick)....we still have 4 weeks to game day.

Well, based on what we have seen so far in camp, when they go the a 2 WR set, they have stayed pretty consistent with the pairings. Britt and Quick have gotten the majority of the 1st unit reps, but in yesterday's practice, the duo of Austin and Bailey got the lions share. Then you have Givens and Pettis rounding out the sets among the top units.

All the "other" personnel groupings are based off these pairings. Whether it be Austin joining Britt/Quick, or Quick joining Austin/Bailey, IMO you are going to see these sort of sets even into the season.

I expect Britt and Quick (assuming they continue to perfrom at the level they have to this point) to garner the majority of the reps, with Austin working in as the slot receiver in the 3 WR sets. But I can see there being plenty of Austin/Bailey mixed in depending on down and distance as well.

At the point, Givens looks to be a "depth" guy who will be used almost in the role that Quick has seen over the past two years. And Pettis is Pettis. As soon as you think they have finally found his replacement, he still manages to find a way to contribute.

Britt & Quick....Bailey's mistake has opened the door......

 

[PrometheusFaulk]

It wasn't what I was expecting, but I'm starting to dig the idea of Britt and Quick. Thinking about how much success the Bears had last year, making things a little easier for Bradford to hit a couple big targets (3 with Cook), Dr. Ram's point yesterday about the downfield blocking, slipping Austin in the slot for a diversity of skills standpoint...I like it.

 

[TShram03]

For those that are proponents of using Tavon out of the backfield (whether he begins the play there or motions into backfield) -- of which I am one -- what type of grouping do you wanna see on the field with him?

For me:

Britt and Quick on the perimeter, Cook as a motion from slot to slot, and Harkey/Kendricks as a H-Back in-line or in the backfield.

If Tavon actually gets the ball, that's just about the best possible blocking you can get on the field for him. If he's used as a PA decoy, Sam still has two guys on the edge who can outmuscle 1v1 coverage. If safeties leave middle of the field to help corners or focus too much on Tavon's movements, hello Cookie and/or Kendricks.

Can't wait to see combos/packages this year with further developed skill group...

 

[TheDYVKX]

Britt and Quick on the outside
Bailey in the slot
Tavon in the backfield
Cook or Kendricks inline

Would be real dangerous to me.

 

[CGI_Ram]

If it's Britt and Quick as the top 2 that's GOOD news! It would certainly be a physical duo to contend with.

I like Givens more situationally. I think it will open up more opportunities for him when he's on the field... i.e. A chance to catch some people off guard with his speed.

With Tavon and Cook moving around forcing teams to adjust... It has the potential to be nasty!

 

[yrba1]

I'm sure Quick will be on 1-WR sets with his blocking skills. Despite some of the unproven talent we have with our receiving corps, they do have diverse skillsets: Givens the burner, Austin the gadget player, Quick with excellent blocking skills, Britt the veteran, Pettis the chains mover, and Bailey the route runner.

I know Schotty likes to design plays that throw DBs off balance so let's hope he doesn't over think them and just let guys play to their strengths while masking weaknesses like what Williams will do for our defense.

 

[RamWoodie]

I'll wait on this one...because when it comes to down and distance...we CANNOT forget how instrumental Pettis was on 3rd down...but he has to earn his spot too.

THE COMPETITION IS KEEN!

 

[Robocop]

Imagine if Chip Kelly was running this unit lol
