I know which WR will fall to us........

Around this time of year everyone falls in love with potential, and forgets production. They want to see the low tier rise, and they want the top tier to fall.

Keary Colbert and Dwayne Jarrett wave hello to your "production vs. potential" argument.

I want speed...pure and simple. I think that Tate has it, I think Ford has it, I think Benn has it. If we pass on WR in the 2nd we could still get a burner in Jacoby Ford with a 3rd or 4th round pick.

We have always been horrible at picking WRs so really drafting anyone we pick is scary to me. We have to be the worst team in the league at picking WRs. Even the Lions have found some decent WRs over the decade.

Count the number of WRs we've drafted in the first three rounds. We have about a 50% hit rate on them, which isn't terrible.

But everyone knew that carter couldn't catch AND was raw.
Just like Benn, right? And it doesn't matter, I was making a point about his comment that speed (re: measurables) is what he wants this year.

Every year at this time, combine results trickle in and people fall in love with the sprinters and forget about the guys who had great production. That's why Benn is rising, and players like LaFell are falling. That's the main point here, right?

or we'll end up getting mardy gilyard or jordan shipley or whoever else is listed at WR for this upcoming draft. or, how bout this, we trade up in the second by using our 1st from next year's draft, and take a pass catching tight end (even though most of us feel comfortable with the TE's the panthers have, john fox might not), then with the other 2nd we take mardy gilyard, and then a DT in the 3rd. BOOYA to yo MAMMA!!!!

edit: oh, and the reason why john fox might want a true pass catching TE that's better than Rosario would be because matt moore likes to throw to tight ends.
