Fleet there is no worries/issues on my end. I enjoy the site and probably don’t understand how to use half the features you provide. No need for you to stress over my lack of understanding of how technology works.

Now it is time for Joe Reed to step up as WR#3.
I have concerns about his route running, and ability to create separation.
On the other hand, he just makes plays, and shows firm, stable catching technique.
wu's looking forward to seeing Joe in games for LAC.We do not play modern football.

Im not sure where you’re getting AE’s number of snaps in the slot. His production came out the backfield in the passing game as it will this season. 81% of his snaps were from the RB position.

Also, do they count positions where he starts in the backfield and motions out a RB alignment or a WR alignment? It varies.
PFF has it counted as 72 snaps in the slot and 82 out wide. They do not give him credit for alignment in the tight wing, which they count as backfield alignment, but I consider in the slot. A good quick check is watch his highlights, and see how many of the big plays are with him in the backfield, and how many can you see him lined somewhere else.
But again, a big part of the 81% are him as a RB, and he is more productive as a receiver, so the real production is coming when he is split out and making plays down the field.
As far as Reed goes, his route running is pretty vanilla. He needs to learn how to get himself open, and stop running the routes like they draw them on paper. When he does that, I expect his touches and production will be pretty good. But he has a ways to go. (https://www.thepowderblues.com/forum...11#post1048211).
Hill is the better route runner, but he got seriously downgraded because of a extremely deep draft class and his lack of stopwatch speed. However, remember that the HOF has several guys who ran slower than he did (Chad Johnson and Steve Largent come to mind). There are a lot of skills that are part of being a WR, and speed is only one of them. Also, both Reed and Hill are a lot faster on the field then they are in the underwear Olympics.

Pre draft TT
“We’re always looking for speed everywhere,” Telesco said. “We’re an athletic, speed-based team. If that’s not the No. 1 criteria with almost every player we take, it’s pretty high. At every position, speed and athletic ability are paramount for us.”
It looks like Reed will be given every opportunity to succeed. And KJ wasn't what they wanted, but presented too much value to pass on.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.
Build Back Better.
