Seth Williams is at best an average WR2. People can give Nix a deservedly hard time but the reality is our WRs are pretty terrible also and don’t help him out at all. The routes are good and they just are not playmakers. For every good play SW made this year he had multiple really bad drops that would have been just as huge.

Schwartz is fast but he’s not a good SEC WR at this point.

Watching teams like Oklahoma, LSU, Bama, etc. slinging it around and how their WRs and multiple of them make plays shows you how far back Auburn Wrs are. We like them because they are our own but they just aren’t very good.

Every thing about Auburn's offense is lacking...Gus is in total control of the offense with this staff.

Caddy (might be a good coach, but who knows)
Grandpa Simpson (the OL speaks for itself)
Kodi (yes man)
Chad (whatever, who really believes he'll make a difference)
Larry (TE, what's that)
Gus (how to fleece a University)

We tried to get a solid WR1. He bolted for Georgia last minute and disappointingly playing as good as I thought he would be as a TF. We would have one or two more wins with Pickens.

I think y’all are hating on Seth Williams too much though. He’s actually a real receiver running real routes and had a productive year. If he caught extended handoffs all game, I bet y’all would love him.

This is a bad take.

By this standard, guys like Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, Steve Smith and others would be questionable WR1 in many seasons.

Set Williams is a jump ball winning matchup problem you can't afford to put in single coverage. That is a WR1


The problem is we have no WR2 / Slot WR we trust enough to take advantage of the attention our WR1 draws

He's the ONLY reliable receiver. ONLY one.

Oklahoma has 1 good receiver. He's just a stud.
LSU's receivers lead the NCAA in drops last season. Burrow's numbers were damn near identical to Nix' numbers this season.

One season changes a lot of things.

Nah, this is dumb. Outside of Bama, LSU, and UGA he is a #1 WR on every other team in the SEC. Im basing that on just physical attributes and on field production. His attitude is really holding him back and I wouldn't be surprised if his antics cost us a game in the future.

That is if he can keep his shenanigans under wraps to finish his career at Auburn. Gus has shown that he has no problem telling a #1 WR to kick rocks. See: Duke and Kyle Davis. I don't understand how Bama, LSU, and Clemson can get elite WRs and none of them show any kind of attitude problems. However, Auburn lands elite WRs (Duke, KD, Seth, NCM) and they can't stay out of trouble off the field, much less finish out their career at Auburn. It really is mind boggling.
