2015 Position Previews: Wide Receiver

After losing their top two receivers to graduation and eventually the NFL Draft, the 2015 Yellow Jackets seek to fill large holes left at the position. While the WR position is not often touted as crucial by the media and those not readily familiar with Paul Johnson’s flexbone, the last six years of Johnson’s tenure on The Flats have shown that even its explosive run game is predicated on the passing game keeping the defense honest.

It’s basic football: if the offense has no pass threat, then the defense has less to worry about and can focus on stopping the run.
