Absolutely. I really believe we were misusing him by having him try to be our #2 and sometimes when Moss was hurt, by making him the only legit WR option (not including Cooley since he's a TE).

Did we overpay for a #3 WR? Based on how we were using him, yes. But as a slot WR, he'll be great and worth the money this year. Look how valuable other great slot WRs can be, Wes Welker for example.
