Derrick Mitchell back to WR

[homes]

I'm for it. Doubt it will happen, but the Hawks need him out there. Not getting the production they need; it's time to get him back on the field. Beathard looks off because his WRs are giving him no help. Mitchell would help.

Would agree need him on the field more, he was injured for the Rutgers game I believe.

Didn't he suffer a serious leg injury? You won't be seeing him for awhile

They need to utilize him on offense. He's being wasted over on the bench. We've seen this movie so many times before. But hey, why utilize a weapon when you're 76th in scoring O.

That excuse no longer applies.

Using Mitchell in the slot? That's not vanilla enough, guys.

If they move him right now, he should understand the playbook enough to see the field just in time to graduate.

I'm all for MItchell seeing a lot more playing time. I don't understand why he is not on the field.

I'm sure Davis will have CJ throw him the ball 2 yards past the line of scrimmage each time.

I'm sure Davis will have CJ throw him the ball 2 yards past the line of scrimmage each time.

Except when it's 3rd and 1 of course.

 

[Fryowa]

I'm sure Davis will have CJ throw him the ball 2 yards short of the first down each time.

FIFY.

I've wanted Derrick Mitchell at WR since August for a few reasons.

1) We already have two talents at RB so moving him to an area of need always made sense to me.

2) He reminds me of another Derrick. Meaning a big physical receiver for our QB to throw at.

3) His size means he can sustain blocks longer and with more aggression given the right coaching.

Is he a burner? No. But from what I've seen he can catch a football; see daylight and break tackles. He doesn't have to be our primary target, but using him and King as any kind of target can't but help our pathetic offense.
