Why can’t we just plug and play Oscer, Luckie Lawson or Spurlin? Those guys were recruited to be the next Bowers.

Probably because they aren’t as good as he is. “Recruited to be the next Bowers” is more hopeful than anything. We aren’t likely to find another Bowers in the next couple decades.

We will because those guys are next on the depth chart but I mean...obviously they aren't as good as Bowers. Like in 05 we just plugged in JT3 instead of DJ but that doesn't mean our team didn't massively suffer from it.

Speed… Bowers plays a lot of plays more like a slot receiver. The big upside is he is big and can block so the defense has to weigh options of matchups in run vs pass.

Obviously Bowers has some big shoes, but I am excited about Luckie, even if he's just out there blocking.
