Strengths & concerns
Pros / cons +

Pros

  • Uncontested path to WR1 targets with Pittman traded away
  • Elite big-play speed, back-to-back seasons leading NFL in YPC
  • Efficient, high-tempo Steichen offense with top-5 O-line protection
  • 1,003-yard first 1,000-yard season in 2025 as a complementary piece -- more room now as clear #1

Cons

  • Started 2026 camp on PUP, no clear return timeline as of GM/HC comments
  • TD production is volume/big-play dependent and should be regressed
  • No separation/tracking metrics available to confirm intermediate-route ability
  • Run-heavy offense (Taylor 323 carries in 2025) caps overall passing volume ceiling
  • Downs also banged up (groin), clouding target distribution in camp
