    I think I read somewhere that he was injured during most of his senior season. So that's probably why he was a 5th rounder instead of higher up.

    Ahhh No. but nice try. Seriously though, I am looking forward to having a reciever on the field that has some real speed. Stretching out the defense, what a concept.

    Well he would be our fastest capable WR by far... It certainly can't hurt to have pure speed out there that can actually catch!! This guy has talent and I think he'll be productive.

    Yeah I'm totally sold on a guy who burned DBs that aren't in the NFL anymore. Be realistic. Look how long it took Coles to adjust to Favre, this guy won't just step in and have an impact.

    he really adds a new dimension to our O, we could play 4 WR sets more often and have a clown go deep.

    I don't think he's going to have an immediate impact, but having him on the field with that speed makes DCs adjust their coverage and opens things up underneath at times.

    When we first got Brad Smith, even though he hadn't done anything, when he ran onto the field teams were shifting their asses off to adjust for him because of his speed. They still do, although less for what he brings to the passing game than with reverses and WR screens, all due to his speed and fast feet. Same with Santana Moss. Although now we have a QB that can get the ball farther and faster and capitalize on that speed.

    Getting Clowney and Chattman back should be a huge boost for the offense. :)
