If we are going to look at tweaking our WR group, then I really don't think you need to get a TJ Housh. I think our rooks have talent, and have the potential to be very good next season. They got their kinks out of the way this year, and they will have a full training camp to get them up to speed, which in turn will help them get in sync with Campbell. That along with Moss, ARE, and Cooley, I just don't see the need to bring or draft anymore wideouts, save maybe for a replacement for Thrash.
Earlier I criticized the coaching of wideouts, b/c I noticed throughout the latter part of the season, that in those rare moments when Campbell had time to throw, the WRs were not open beyond the 1st down marker. I think this even happened earlier in the season when they were doing well. So maybe a new position coach can help develop the rookies, and help our wideouts get open.

I didnt state the obvious... Our O-Line problems are the direct reason we couldnt get the passing game in rhythm. But i can only believe in what ive seen. Moss, Housh, Thomas looks like a great 1 2 3 to me. I dont mind Randle El on the roster either, hed be able to do what he did in Pittsburgh as a Role Player solely.. Situationally the 3rd Slot, 4th Slot, and handle special teams. If we can get Houshy cheap... and improve our O-Line in the offseason.. Wed be passing with the best next year.
