    until we hear otherwise

    not sure if Landry could even help us this early in the season after his injury, but he is at this moment part of the LSU team moving forward

    I read he was getting some reps in the slot and Davenport is available as well.

    Obviously we could use Landry with the loss of Shepard.

    My guess is Beckham will be the first called upon for that duty.

    Between him coming off a recent injury and and possible involvement in the fight, I doubt we see him. Coach doesn't have to suspend somebody to bench them.

    Talk about irony...I was getting ready to post this very question (Availability of Landry and Davenport for the Oregon game)...Sweet! If we need Jarvis, he is gonna play. He may very well get suspended if he gets charged with a misdemeanor down the line, so let him play until proven otherwise. Right now he has been charged with nada...other than being stupid and getting involved in the situation to begin with.

    Boone is #2 in the slot behind Shep but we will see Odell used often. Landrt may as see PT as well but more likely after a couple of games.

    IMO, Sheppard's loss in WR position isn't really as damaging to our offense as Jefferson's suspension because Sheppard wasn't a spectacular receiver last season anyway. I expect to see Boone and two Freshman WRs stepping up and filling the vacancy left by Sheppard if they don't perform even better.

    Ok, so Boone is the slot receiver.

    Randle, Wright, Boone

    with Beckham backing up Boone

    cool

    Well that came straight from Boone's mouth about 2 weeks ago. So unless he got passed up or they have decided keeping Odell off the field isn't option I think it starts that way. There has been some talk that Odell could be used at all WR spots. I think we could see Boone on the outside at times as well.
