Do we need upgrades at wide receiver?
Apparently, I got laughed at for saying that we have one of the best and deepest wide receiver corps in the league. Is it just me, or is the wide receiver position the least of our worries? If anyone said attacked our weakness at wideout before the season started, please lead me to that post because I don't believe anyone here expressed such sentiments.
Our talent at wide receiver is in the top 10 without question. James Thrash is our number 4 wideout whereas last year he was the number one wideout in Philly. Before the season started, the Ravens were going after McCants and we've played the guy in about 4 series this year and didn't dress him until halfway through the season. Taylor Jacobs, who many projected as a mid-first round pick, was praised by Champ Bailey as one of the most talented receivers/route-runners he's met. People point to Gardner and complain that he misses easy catches. There's a reason he's our #2, he's not supposed to be our #1 so quit acting like the guy is supposed ot be Randy Moss. Lavernaues Coles. Enough said. When many "experts" laughed at the 'Skins for overpaying Coles, I distinctly recall a great many of you enjoying Coles' success and raving about the guy. All of the sudden, Coles is Michael Westbrook. What gives? I personally love Coles (if Ramsey had been traded, I would've changed my screen name to ColesFan). Now he's being touted as "just another receiver." Talk about fickle fans. Anyone who honestly believes that our wide receiving corps is sub-par or a big reason for our team's record needs to think twice. If our WR corps needs to be upgraded, we might as well scrap the team because I can't think of any other unit on our roster that is deeper and of better quality. |
