I think he'll be clutch on 3rd downs next year and backfill that Marvin Jones role with him more than likely gone in the off season. You have to remember too that this is his first year in a new system with Lawrence also learning it and gelling with him and Kirk. Those guys should only improve as a unit moving forward. Still plenty of football left. Zay missed a game or two and he's close to 500 yards already. I think he'll finish with close to 800 yards this year. Not too shabby.

Then you get Ridley in the mix. Which should only help. We also get another draft class to build into this offense. I am honestly more concerned with the TE position at the moment over the WR position going into 2023. Would like to see Engram resigned but if he's not coming back maybe we can land Zach Ertz on a cheaper one year deal than Engram had this year and draft a solid player or two to develop. Mayer, Kincaid, Kuntz and LaPorta are all ideal.

Resigning Engram to a reasonable contract or picking up Ertz as a stop gap for a year sounds good. Wondering how much Robert Tonyan might ask for?

The front office hasn’t prioritized the TE position over the years. This will need to change with Pederson. I’m thinking adding a TE in the 2nd or maybe the 3rd at the latest. I wouldn’t hesitate to grab one in the top of the 2nd depending on who might be available.
