C It was a great move trading back with Atlanta. Because of it, you get two of the guys we were considering with the #21 pick. The more I think about it taking 2 wr's this close together was probably really smart. Half of recent early round wr's bust out (Gardner, Mike Williams, Rashaun Woods, Micheal Jenkins....etc) and those that prove worthy take more than a season (Calvin Johnson, Braylon Edwards, Sinorice Moss, etc). So I guess the hope is that one of them will be a good player for the 2009 season. Davis will be a great addition. None of them will make an impact in 2008 though and with 3 picks in the early to mid second you expect at least one to be an immediate impact guy.
