Will the talented group of Wide Receivers and Tight Ends help elevate Oregon State’s passing game?

When will the Beaver’s Receivers break through? That particular question has been asked consistently in the past 3 seasons. Inconsistency at the QB position and protecting the QB have factored into the notion of this group not playing to their full potential. In addition, Beaver Receivers and Tight Ends had problems with dropped passes and not gaining separation from the defense.

Fortunately, for Beaver Nation, this group finished the 2016 season strong. They showed glimpses of how good they could be. The good news is the Receivers and Tight Ends return with experience. In addition, this will be their second year in a row with the same Offensive Coordinator (Kevin McGiven), which benefits this group because they are more familiar with the playbook.
