A lot of what Pederson likes to do with the RPO and inside zone read? That's exactly what Lawrence was running at Clemson. Philosophically they should blend very well together. Etienne should be great in this system. Robinson, when he's healthy? He'll be ready to go. It puts a lot of pressure on Lawrence to read the box correctly, get the count correctly and understand what he's truly seeing out there from a coverage perspective. In the long run it's going to make him a better QB.

I think we're fixing to see a lot of fun and exciting things on offense this year. Really, really excited about who they're going to target next month in March and who they start looking at in the draft. Getting a guy like Ertz or Schultz to combine with Arnold. Getting one of these receivers in the market or bringing back Chark is exciting. You might actually see Shenault thrive in this system once they get it going with the pick plays and RPO screen formations.

A WR now like Dotson, Shakir, Bolden and Philips in the draft start to climb up on your draft board a little bit more in this type of system. A TE like McBride, Kolar and Likely start to look more and more intriguing to add into the mix. You really want an Ertz / Goedert situation here now with this offense.

Who is Bolden? We might be able to get Phillips as an UDFA. This is a very, very deep WR class. Almost as deep as RB.

Slade Bolden out of Alabama. You're probably right though about Philips. Bolden will probably be in the same situation. We just have a ton of picks this year in RD6. I think if you really like one of these short, slot type of guys you might want to take a shot on them directly instead of chancing it.

However, depending on how free agency shakes out next month. I would rather see them package up some of those picks in RD6 and try to get back into the bottom of RD3 or somewhere in RD4 if it means snatching up a guy like Kellen Diesch, Luke Goedeke or Josh Sills to shore up the offensive line.
