JackStroud Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Manningham 1000 yds Nicks 1200 yds Stokley 750 yds Ballard 800 Yds These are my projections for 2011...... thats approximately 3800 yds from those 4 alone Eli can get to 4500 with the RBs added this year 35 Receiving TDs and 14 INTs are projected If the RBs can add another 2000 yds on the ground that should get us in the Playoffs Only San Diego and New England can hope to be in this class offensively.....I believe we were the 5th ranked offense last year so this will just be a move up one slot.....we were 7th ranked in D last year Stokleys best yr was 2004 at 15yds per catch and over 1000 yds for the year but 2 yrs ago at Denver he averaged 17 yds per catch He only has 1 fumble in his entire 13 year career http://www.nfl.com/player/brandonstokley/2503158/careerstats Its kind of remarkable we could get a guy this good at this point in the year..........hes like a Steve Smith with 2 legs instead of one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 There's a difference between a "projection" and "pulling a number out of your ass". He's not going to average anything close to 17ypc as the #3 receiver . Smith's best was 11.4 as the #2. Ballard will be luck to break 500 yards, it's still Gilbride's offense.

Nas Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I don't really know what this stokely move is about.. no fucking clue. I guess it can't hurt but I don't think it will change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Stokley has not had 700 yards receiving combined the past two years. he is 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StrahansGap Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 You do realize that Eli manning is our quarterback, right? We could have Rice, Moss, nicks and bavaro and it still wouldn't make a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 If Stokley could avg 17 yds per catch 18 months ago with Kyle Orton throwing the ball he can do as good or better with Eli Stockley knows how to get open, its a talent, a special gift and he has it.......Maningham and Nicks will get the double coverage..........Eli should have a field day with this guy Those are my estimates and I'm sticking to them......what made us the 5th best offense last year that we do not have now? The OLine has to jell.........we need to get Boothe back on the O-line Jacobs has to get a lot more field time to protect Eli The D Line needs to get healthy to get us field position on turnovers and they need to move this kid Da'Rel Scott on the field somehow This could be a very very good team if coached properly Stockley's game does not rely upon speed, it relies on quickness and intelligence......thats like saying Amani Toomer could not perform at 35........nonsense..........check out his playoff performances just last fall......the guy is a winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 I think we may indeed have the best receiver corp in the NFL come playoff time............there is a nice blend of talent, experience, and potential......could explode........maybe not.........we''ll see I would not read too too much into losing to a hyped up Skins home team in a seasons opener If you think like that then the Steelers are the worst team in the NFL Stockley also had an 87 YD TD 2 years ago........you dont make an 87 yd TDs with no speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Ok, who has a better group of receivers...........name the team.....Eagles? ......who is their possesion guy......a limping Steve Smith? We have he potential with a possession receiver now to be the Greatest Show on Turf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 No way Ballard gets 800 yards. Absolutely 0% chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Greatest show on turf???Really??? 1999 called, they want their nickname back.

Zelmo Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 This thread is nuts. The addition of Stokley absolutely does not give us the best group of receivers in the league. -Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yea far from it Nicks is an absolute stud. Top 5 in the NFL Manningham is just really good. Top 30 in the NfL maybe top 20 or 15 Outside of that, who is even above average??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 whos better...........GB? the problem is not the receivers with the O look elsewhere the line and QB to be specific both have been wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy below par but the season is young Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 We don't have a slot guy yet. And we have not threat at TE Nicks an Manninghannare easier to contain without other threats to worry about in passing situations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 we have a slot guy now and Ballard is outperforming Boss so far again THEY are not the problem Eli and his line are we are very close Monday may surprise you easy to blame the receivers.........but misleading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
