    I think they'll all move around, what do they always say, "The NFL is game of matchups".

    Move the WR's around so you get the matchups you want.

    I will say, this is the one position group that I feel best about. (even TE's) A lot of talent to throw the ball to. (if Rivers gets time and room, to throw it)
    "...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

      And when Mike Williams gets back it will only get better for finding mismatches.
      Go Rivers!

        One thing, with M Williams not practicing yet, that only leaves 4 active receivers, no 5 receiver sets! They actually cut 8 WR's on the 2nd. I think it was 3 put on the PS>

          I think in a 5 wide set, Henry, Gates or even Gordon would be used.

            Probably, just saw that Inman is also hurt, groin I think. Now down to 3 WR's!

                I suspect Inman has not recovered from his surgery.
                Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

                  Just looked at the depth chart and it shows T Benjamin as punt return man. If he got hurt we would be down to two healthy WR's. Don't see this as a very good situation. Thought we had a lot of depth here? Maye a PS promotion now.

                    That's not good, God forbid Benjamin go down now you have just Allen & T. Williams (injured, M. Williams & Inman) I assume Geremy Davis will be active, but maybe someone else should be doing punt returns until our receiver crew is at full health

                  yeah, that's why I laughed when people kept saying they were loaded at WR and wanting to move Inman for a 4th or 5th round pick.

                    I love the potential of our receiving core: Allen, T-Will, M-Will, Benji, and Inman.

                    For the most part you can interchange those guys on the field to cause mismatches, to take advantage of certain situations, and to simply keep opposition defenses honest. If you move Allen inside then outside, or T-Will outside then inside, it is going to be difficult for teams to stop them when you've got a quarterback like Philip Rivers under center. Factor in our tight end duo, Hunter Henry and the evergreen Antonio Gates, and those guys are going to cause opposition defenses trouble. Then we've got Melvin Gordon who can catch the ball and make plays. So in that sense I like our group of pass catchers.

                    As for the what happens if we suffer injuries [again], well, you cross that bridge when you come to it. Last season T-Will and Inman showed they could step up as a one-two duo, while being supported by Henry, Gates, and Gordon [plus others]. So while there are obvious concerns over Allen's ability to stay healthy and M-Will's ability to get healthy, I think we do have a nice well rounded set of pass catchers to cope with any potential injuries. Plus, we have shown an ability to find receivers to bring into the team when injuries strike and we have a decent trio on the practise squad and I'm sure we have others earmarked in case things go to pot.

                      I like Arty Scott, he will eventually take Inmans role and I like Inman a lot.
