That's the issue Meyer would publicly voice about Philly Brown as well. Hopefully Wilson can work on that, if not there are too many guys waiting in the wings At that position.
They aren't the same type of reciever. Our straight line recievers are Smith, McLaurin and Campbell. Dontre's agility, size and speed are suited for slot reciever role all the way and he's also 5 inches shorter than Devin.
I don't think I'd put Campbell in that discussion, he's more like Wilson. Smith, McLaurin and Dixon are the deep threat WRs, IMO. Wilson is all H back in the middle. But it'd be nice to see him get versatile enough to try outside at times. But he should be used to exploit mismatches in the defense
I hope you're right but I'm not so confident. Dontre reminds me of Mo Wells and how much talk there was about him coming in and then really hasn't done as much. He's got 2 more years to leave his mark but at this point with how much we share the ball on offense I do not see Dontre having the type of impact perhaps we all thought he may. To be honest, there's nothing wrong with that because he will be solid but IMO won't be a big part due to Marshall and especially Samuel stealing reps at H.
If he's even dangerous in the return game, that's a big role for this team. I agree with what you're saying about losing reps to Marshall and Samuel, but Urban likes to have all of his playmakers utilized which bodes well for Dontre. Smith likes to rotate in WRs and keep them fresh so it's not like any HB will get all of the reps anyway, they'll definitely be split, and also with Samuel splitting time at RB and HB, that helps Wilson too.
