I'd say you are potentially WAY over-valuing him. WRs are bust magnets and even the best of them usually have adjustment periods.

We can pass and I could almost guarnatee that we will if given the opportunity.
I could be. But he honestly looks like TO and R. Moss combined. The guy is 6'4 or 6'5 and runs like a 4-4 and has awesome hands. I saw him play several times because I'm a MD. grad so I tend to watch alot of ACC. What I saw was a can't miss. But you are correct. WR's tend to take a year or two to get adjusted to the pro game. But if he turns out to be a stud and we pass on him I'm going to just shake my head. Texans just look foolish right now with M. Williams and his one or two sacks.

I truly doubt he'll be available at #6. I bet he goes in the top 3. A guy like him only comes along every 10 years or so.

If he's available that means teams might be desparate enough to offer us something good for him. Maybe a middle 1st & early 2nd or middle 1st and next years 1st? If he's available.

I agree. He'll be long gone by the time we pick.

Can Calvin Johnson play cornerback? If not, forget about it.
