Jake isn't transferring, I'm ok with LJ transferring as we need a better RB1 that can take on 20+ carries a game

Collie had a Collie year because we used the TE.

We used the TE because other than Collie, who did we have at receiver?

Knee Brace

Lassiter was Roberts' Pitta this year.

Gorgias

Chase was essentially our TE, as far as how he’s used on 3rd down.

Yes and no. Better WR2 also means more balls to WR2.
