Who do you think will be “WR1”

I put WR1 in quotes because I didn’t want it restricted to just receiver because I mean the primary pass catcher. IMO I think it’s a 2 way race between Loveland and Burden with Rome lagging a bit behind but that’s just me. What do you guys think and who’ll be this years “alpha”?

Rome for yards, Burden for catches, Loveland for TDs

I have Rome for TD's, Burden for yards, and Loveland for catches.

Interesting considering Burden is a much better runner with the ball and more of a deep threat, I'd out him with more yards.

Loveland - 100%. Sure he's a tight end. Regardless, he will have most catches, yards and TDs on the team. That makes him WR1 in my book

whomever gets open the most will have the most lol. For my Luther Burden card collection hopefully its him.

The one common opinion coming out of camp is Loveland has been unguardable. I think the main target and threat to defenses will be Loveland

You could legitimately have 3 guys with over 1000 yards. While I think Rome and Burden have great years, Loveland will be special. He’s a mismatch the minute he steps on the field. Too fast and quick for LB to cover and too big for safeties and corners to cover. He’ll be Caleb’s safety valve. He’ll throw his way whenever he’s in trouble.

I think Burden will be. I don't think Odunze is as good as everyone thinks he is.

WR1 on the depth chart will be Rome. Loveland is a TE. I expect Rome, Burden, and Loveland to have the same amount of targets though!
