They do?

All I thought of was McCardell myself. Maybe David Patten did ok with the Saints for a minute, but that would hardly count

Ryan Clark and Walt Harris? They weren't recievers though.

In fairness, Harris was an established corner before he got here. We cut him while he still had some gas left in the tank but that's not the same as cutting a young before giving him a chance to develop.

As to Clark, even if not a WR, he is one I wish we had found a way to keep.

Sure... There are tons. Lloyd, Randle El, Coles, Patten, Thrash, Jacobs, McCants. I can go on and on. We have had LOTS of Wide Receivers that have been all pros on other teams. Just no one said what they were all pros of...

I hope you were being as sarcastically funny as I was trying to be.

Lloyd- never was. The Bears got more out of him though then us.
ARE- 30mill down the drain. Could have gotten same production for less.
Jacobs- Where's he at now?
McCants- Same...Where's he at now?
Coles- Did better with the Jets. Both times.
Patten- Only shined in N.E.
Thrash- Someone who played far better then he should have.

I would count Coles and Thrash as people who actually did better after leaving Washington. Coles did better prior and after. Thrash looked awsome in Philli but again it was WCO... short passes. I think Gibbs used him incorrectly. Maybe you could argue ARE also. I never saw anything special that he did with the Steelers so I couldn't figure out why we picked him up only to get marginal production for the cost.

Quite sarcastic. Thus the all pros of... supposed to be of not good things. Like all pros of mediocrity. Fill in the blank. Use your imagination! And I agree with your thoughts on the above "all pros".
