[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1064923, member: 6578"] I'd bet his targets if a line were placed would be only around 50 or so. Even in 2022 when Romeo and Watson were rookies and Lazard was arguably the only WR above them both on depth they got 67 and 66 targets respectively - with Cobb getting 50 and Lazard over 100. Reed in 2023 set the record for a Packer rookie with 94 targets but big factor there was Wicks wasn't used much at first but got 58 targets finally and Watson was out. Last season no rookie WRs so no comps there but the way I look at it is the following: When Love has played full(ish) season we are in that 540 or so total targets: Conservative numbers...assuming Love is healthy... - Doubs if healthy minimum gets 85 - Reed same as above 85 - Tucker is progressing and I assume with break last year (70) so let's say 80 - Wicks let's say his targets go down some 10% (was 76) to 68 - Musgrave had 46 when healthy in 2023 in just 11 games....let's say he gets 50 minimum - Our top 3 RBs combined for 70....which low for healthy Love years...let's say 85 That is a total of 453 targets... So roughly around 100 snaps (should say targets) or less to split between guys like Golden, Williams, Heath and perhaps a 3rd TE getting some snaps/time like Sims or Fitzpatrick plus likely a fourth RB nabbing a few. I personally expect Golden to see time absolutely and for sure if one of Doubs/Wicks/Reed struggle or get injured I think Golden could really hit 70 or so...but this offense IMO wants to increase Tucker's role, pound the rock, get back to manufactured touches to Reed like in 2023 and utilize WRs to round out the attack not necessarily be the attack... Golden for me is one of the hardest to predict for me out of all our WRs going into the season....unlike Doubs and Watson who we knew were going to get significant playing time given depleted room....Golden and Williams both have not played a single NFL snap and it is not something easily transitioned to by even some of the greats in the past...and they've got three bonafide starters with experience, plus Hardman, plus a guy in Heath who knows the system, blocks his *** off and has delivered consistency in reserve. With a healthy Luke Musgrave and possibly a progressing Ben Sims I could see us playing a substantial amount of 12 personnel which will also limit the snaps Golden and Savion get chances for to begin with too.
