[QUOTE="sschind, post: 667755, member: 10247"] I guess I just do not see this group of formidable candidates at WR (after the two top spots) . As much as my posts seem to downplay Janis as a WR I do not see the difference between him and any of our our #3 candidates as being that big. Monty showed promise but has an injury that may be more significant than we first thought. Adams had a decent rookie year but seemed to regress last year. Abby finished the year on the field but his body of work is as shaky as Janis. The rookie is just that, a rookie and not a high round pick so you have to believe he will start out near the bottom. While I do not think, at this point, Janis has made the leap above any of the other guys to the #3 spot it would not surprise me if he does eventually. Perhaps even by opening day. Unfortunately that is not so much a vote of confidence in his abilities to outplay them as much as it is a question of the ability of the others to maintain their positions ahead of him. If Janis does remain our ST ace honestly I hope he can rise up in the WR depth chart because if we are going to activate 4 WRs on any given game day I would prefer one of those to be our ST guy and not 4 WRs plus Janis as our ST guy. It gives us the option of only activating 4 WRs if another position becomes a bigger need for bodies. As I have said, after Nelson and Cobb I see it shaking out this way Adams, Montgomery, Janis, rookie but I could honestly see the order of the first three changing very easily and to be honest I won't really care one way or the other. The bottom line for me, as I guess it is for most fans, is that our depth chart is set based on each players abilities and not on their prowess at another position and regardless of draft position. If Janis outplays Adams and Montgomery I will be happy with Janis as our #3 guy (as long as it is because he steps up and not because they step back) [/QUOTE]
