[QUOTE="sschind, post: 649887, member: 10247"] There is a big difference in seeing the ability in a player and that player coming through. If I wanted to spend the time I could probably find 5 plays that look pretty close to what you posted (maybe not the hail mary) for a hundred WRs who never got past that season or never got past the "remember that one catch he had in that one game" level. Like I said many times, its a good place to start but its far from enough to instill an abundance of confidence in our receivers. Expat is correct in that there are a lot of" ifs" involved. Probably more than last year since going in we really had no "ifs" regarding Nelson and Cobb. We were set at #1 and #2 The big games by Abby and Janis against the Cardinals may have given us a bit more confidence in their abilities but they haven't completely erased the questions surrounding them. Adams took a step back so there is certainly a question there if he can come back to the promise he showed as a rookie and Montgomery, well, he was injured as well and will only be a second year man himself. Lots of questions, Lots of "ifs" In fact, between Nelson, Cobb, Adams, Montgomery, Abby, Janis and Jones I'd say the one with the least amount of question to him is the one most likely to be gone and that's Jones. He's healthy (no injuries to come back from at least) He's a veteran (proven what he can do in more than 1 game or 1 season) He's steady (proven he can do it consistently) he's reliable (not spectacular but gives you solid production) His knocks are he is old (he is oldish but not old, only a year older than Nelson if I am not mistaken) and he is slow (it doesn't take speed to make great catches and move the chains) As a #1 or #2 sure he wouldn't be my first choice but I'd love to be able to go into the season with a player like James Jones as my #3 guy. If someone overtakes him great because a guy like that as your #4 or #5 man means you probably have the best group of WRs in the league. [/QUOTE]
