And you know what's worse? All of those wideouts I listed above, DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Hakeem Nicks, Steve Smith, Mario Manningham, and Dez Bryant were all drafted by their respective teams in the last 3 seasons, and Miles Austin was undrafted but spent enough time learning his craft so that he could be a playmaker when his number was called. We should've invested our 2008 first round pick on an offensive lineman because that was a weak draft for elite wideouts (yeah I know Eagles took DeSean Jackson when we had a chance to take him, we just went for the bigger guy instead of the smaller but faster wideout because that's what everybody thought we needed
.)
It definitely hurts knowing these guys are going to be tearing up the league for a long time while we are sitting here with one quality wideout (Moss) and a bunch of has-beens (Galloway) or unknowns (Armstrong, Banks, Austin, and MK after this season).
