Good. Garcon hasn't proven he can stay healthy, Moss is aging, I don't think any other WR's impressed last season?

If anything though someone out of Morgan, Hankerson, Robinson should emerge this year. To me Recievers have three levels. Elite, good, and Devin Thomas.

Unless you have a player with elite potential no need going out of your way as your Recievers production should be a combination of your offensive system and your QB play.

Personally I'm more worried about Tight End. Davis is not only coming off that achilies but is easily, if not already, one more YouTube video or blunt away from a suspension. With his luck someone will post a video of him kicking a puppy and its female owner while smoking a joint.

Paul's lack of hands make me nervous and Cooley is no longer Captain Chaos. More like Honorary Adviser Chaos.

LOL, for the Devin Thomas comment I almost needed another keyboard. Great point about the rest, I agree. I just don't think we're as loaded at WR as we hoped. Really hoped Morgan and Hank would turn it on with Garcon out, to my untrained eyes I haven't seen it.

That's an excellent post. You didn't mention Paulsen, but I reckon it's because you see him as the (only) sure thing at TE?

Prior to last year Garçon didn't have any injury issues. I think it's a little premature to slap him with the injury prone label.

Considering the injuries Morgan played through I thought he did a solid enough job. Hopefully he can step it up now that he should be healthier.

I think we are trying to build our WRs the way the Packers and Saints are. AKA what RGIII had in college. Four guys that can hurt you in different ways.

1. Garcon- Go to guy, Good route runner, tough, plays like a possession receiver but has enough speed to run away from most defenders which is a plus.

2. Morgan- Has the size to shield away defenders. Great blocker, can go over the middle, has decent enough straight line speed, good hands.

3. Hankerson- Has size and speed, but like Smoot said needs to improve work ethic.

4. Robinson/Draft pick- The "speedster", can fly by anyone and requires a safety to help on him just because he is that fast.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Good post.

I'd rather add a weapon at RB in the draft, but I won't hate it if we add another WR. The more Griffin has to work with the better.

Can't remember him being injured much in Indy, but then again it's not like he saw a lot of action/wear and tear there.
