Only the Calvin Johnson's of the world can make anyone look good and they are very very very very very VERY few and far between.

With Griffin at the healm we might find that we're going from "all the receivers we get end up sucking" to "man receivers are a dime a dozen."

well, i don't know if you followed CJ, but watching reggie ball throw to him at GT was pretty god awful. and yet, he still helped get reggie drafted.
