All I know is we've had our share of big WRs in the past, and it didn't put us in the playoffs.
There's much more that goes into a successful passing game and redzone offense than just having big targets.

If Gibbs believes Ramsey is the QB for his offense, he cannot be comfortable with the receivers we have because Ramsey has struggled with all of them on the long pass. Especially in the redzone. The pass to Cooley was an example of what happens when your target is bigger than your defender. Gibbs has been wrong in the past and I'm afraid he made a terrible mistake in getting rid of all of the big targets because it limits the offenses ability to go over top with the pass and relies too much on speed. Our speedsters seem to be outrunning the pass. So maybe speed isn't a plus in Ramsey's case.
