Why has Vele hit his ceiling after less than two years in the league:

Rookie year Vele


Look at all the WRs who could only find success under CSP. We took the cheese and if anyone should have known better, it should have been us

Marquez Callaway 46/698/6 one season and then was never heard from again

Deonte Harris 36/570/3 got him a $14 mil deal from Buffalo, then he had 150 yards and released

Willie Snead was a near 1k WR here, gets a contract from BAL and fizzles out

He got Meachem at $25 mil deal with the chargers and he made it one year there before getting released

He got a third and Ellerbee for Kenny frickin Stills who was coming off a 931 yard season with us

Are you expecting some massive leap? He’s about to turn 28 years old.

His numbers are sure to go up b/c somebody has to catch the ball. Kinda like when we had Calloway that year as our number one receiver. He wasn’t good but got numbers b/c he played most snaps.

Career game for him tho, almost matched his season total with us.

He sucks. This roster sucks. The complete misses on the OL for five years far outweighs a fourth round pick.

Vele can Catch.
He can Stretch out for it.
He can Contest it.
He can Catch in traffic.
He isnt bad.
But he isnt no Colston.
Difference Colston had Drew Brees and SP.

Bear with me but he honestly looked like Michael Thomas on a few of his receptions today, we need to feed him more.

I ABSOLUTELY FORGOT Joe Morgan. We've had so many "just a guy" receivers through the years

Can you imagine if somehow Joe Horn and Brees played together?!

They'd be putting up Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase numbers
