i think they rotate like 8 of them, per game, correct?

it would be natural for any player to stop running good, crisp routes if you know the ball is NEVER going to come, wouldnt it?

kinda demoralizing...

Speaking of which, i'm no expert, but when i watch our WRs run their routes, "crisp" isnt the word that comes to mind...

I like you calling them "wideouts." I was thinking the term "receiver" was way too generous and was thinking of calling them route runners, but "wideouts" isnt bad. Maybe "dropouts" is even better.

the potential is staggering

6' 3'' + WR who can fly

yet, no one to throw and when thrown they do not catch

SAD!

It's hard to learn how to catch when no one throws you the ball. ;)

Shoop, I looked at the game stats and 10 wideouts played (not counting RBs and TEs).  Only 5 wideouts had catches.  Hall with 7 catches (out of 18 completions) was the leading receiver.  Seems to me that you are on to something.

Surely out of 10 guys, someone can catch consistently.  I think the wideouts need enough game reps to be comfortable and "in rhythm" with the QB.  If we are constantly rotating, how comfortable can they be?

Maybe we should play fewer wideouts.  Then perhaps some will become "wide receivers."

Maybe if they caught the ball, they wouldn't be rotated out so often.
