Why Cartwright over ARE?

That's a good argument.

We've talked about injuries, but what about all those players that are important to their teams?
MCgee (starting CB)
Hester (will be #3 this year)
D. Hall (#3 wr)
Burleson (#2 / #3)
Rossum (starting CB)
Pittman (back up RB)
Miller (starting CB)
Jones Drew (split starting RB)
Welker (#2 WR)

OK first of Hester doesnt really count on this list because he is only an impactful return man in general, that is his role. Same with Hall. Those are two that automatically drop out of this argument and list.

For the others, I see what you are aiming at, but look at that percentage wise. That would be way less than half the teams in the NFL using important players to KR. We also mentioned Gibbs mentality. He is conservative in that he would get the extra five, instead of gambling injury and loss of yards for that one TD.

Rossum not a starter D. Hall number 4 this year at best Welker will be number 3 and Burleson sucks

you saw we lost a kick returner in the game on thursday, right?

that's why his exposure is limited.
