Other than Moss they(recent Skin WRs) haven't been very good for the past several years. The only other WR that actually really produced in decent numbers in recent memory was, dare I say it, Rod Gardner. Before that, you had the dynamic duo of Michael Westbrook and Albert Connell. Not the best trio overall, but better than what we have today. As for being ignorant, I am not sure Jsarno is guilty of that. The hype of last season over our WRs was incredible. We were supposed to see Thomas and Kelly breakout remember? Mitchell gave some guys hard ons. What did they do? A whole lot of nothing!!! The 3 WRs I previously named performed decently, but were not stellar and received tons of criticism for too many drops, health problems, etc like our current bunch, but the older guys did produce. In short, we let ourselves get too geeked up about a WR corp that really isn't so stellar, and doesn't look like they are going to get the numbers that we were hoping for. Face it, we have one stud, with an old geezer and a trio of younger guys that have the equal chance of being studs or duds. Thus far with Thomas and Kelly, you don't have any numbers that are very promising, do you?
