    My dream is Pettis, Lenius, and Jones staring. That is one of the tallest WR groups in the conference. Hopefully Bush is able get the best out of Lenius

    The doog in me wants to believe that Lenius can have a Lavon Coleman type breakout year. He definitely needs to show up this spring and produce.

    I think Pettis is going to be incredible next year.

    I can't see both Lenius and Jones starting. If Lenius has his couch repo'd and/or looks like old Lenius, then Jones could have a big role. If not, Jones' role will probably be minor, at least early on.

    Chico is going to have a starting role, and Fuller will probably get the most reps at 4th WR.

    Just adding one big wideout to the starting lineup and potentially another to the rotation is going to make a big difference. We were crazy small out wide last year.

    I think Jones will be the #2 WR next year. He has the luxury in playing in a conference with shit secondaries to help his transition to college ball.

    We were not "crazy" small. Pettis and Ross are the average receiver size. There are plenty of successful teams without a stud 6-3+ receiver.
    If we get a good one, that will be a plus, but we can have success without one. We don't have to force Lenius, who by all accounts seems to not be good at football, in our lineup every offseason.

    Our top 3 receivers (our base set) were listed at 6'1", 5'11" and 5'7". That's an average of 5'10" at receiver (and that's assuming Dante's really 6'1"). In 2016 that's well below average.

    I'm with you on not having to force Lenius into the lineup. But we were very small at receiver last season.

    My dream is that Lenius learned how to block during his RS year. Hopefully Azeem put some feces in his throat.
