Leonard Hankerson is the real deal - he will have a hell of a year.

If that hip gets back to 100%, I have high hopes for him as well. A lot of it depends on who's throwing him the ball.....

Yes and yes, that's why I'm not worried about the WR position. Add Paul and Robinson on their 2nd years and we got something.
Three receivers with less than 20 career receptions? Was this a riddle?

Who was Helu? Who was Cariker? All these players just needed a shot.

Funny thread.

I think we can take heart that Hank's injury didn't require surgery. That's a good thing.

That doesn't mean that every player who gets a shot tears it up.

No way - everybody picked in the 7th round or shortly thereafter makes the pro-bowl! geesh!

Of course.. I was being humorous (kinda) but as much as I think Hankerson will be a stud, Paul looks like James Thrash 2.0 and Robinson may be Terrence Austin with a couple more years under his belt. I hope we plan on surrounding Hankerson with some more talented WR than Paul and Robinson.

I'm really hoping we can pick up Blackmon if he falls to us. That would be so nice to have Blackmon, Hankerson, Paul, Robinson, and Austin as our WR corp.

Care to elaborate?

Mike Shanahan -

Interesting take on Hankerson. From what little we've seen of him I'm reminded of Boldin a bit...great possession WR but not necessarily break away speed. We need both so if Hank can come back healthy indeed he'll contribute a great deal to the offense.

Why exactly would that be nice? Not being a dick, but when did Paul, Robinson or Austin show ANYTHING that would indicate them being consistent performers at WR? Paul played 13 games and caught 2 balls. Robinson didn't get off the practice squad until week 17 and was inactive. Austin has been on the roster for 2 years (18 games) and has 15 catches. Sure these guys are young, homegrown draft picks and may a future role but going into next season with the 5 you mentioned would be a disaster.
