T.O's close to done. Hankerson might not be a superstar or even very good right now, but he still has a CHANCE at this point in his career to become that elite WR we need.

Or he could just be Devin Thomas. You like playing that risk/reward chance card. Most people don't come out and end up being like Cam Newton or Darelle Revis and just naturally being a beast, but you can at least get a good feel for how they're going to be by watching them play. I don't get good feelings from Hankerson. I didn't in college. I didn't in pre-season. I don't now.
