Farewell MVS. I hope you're not playing for the 49ers in Week 1.
I'll be thrilled if he's hurting the 49ers offense in week 1.
It's a bold decision by the Seahawks. Bobo and Young are quality depth WRs and Horton has a lot of potential. The Seahawks need a home-run WR threat. I'm not sure those 3 WRs can deliver that and be counted on for 80 receptions between them.
It's not a bold decision at all to cut a bad player. The mistake was guaranteeing $3M to that stiff. What a waste.
For MVS to get 80 receptions, he'd need 175 targets or more, and I'm being generous. Possibly more like 200. Yikes.
I agree that the Seahawks need an X, and I really think it sucks that they spent a chunk of free-agent change on getting another slot receiver when that was already the best-covered part of the WR corps at the time and the team needed an X. But it's also clear that MVS ain't the X the Seahawks need. In addition to getting down the field fast, an X really ought to be able to catch the damn ball too. MVS is sorely lacking in the hands department.
