[QUOTE="porky88, post: 131438, member: 489"] Nice work again Bruce. Couple of comments on the receivers going into the off season. 1. Anyone who thinks Driver isn't a true #1 needs to pickup some film and watch every game over and over again. He's a true #1 and is now starting in the Pro Bowl. He blocks, goes across the middle. He does everything he's asked too. 2. I believe the NFL will reinstate Koren Robinson. I think Robinson can be a great player for us on special teams and be one of the better #4 WR's in the NFL if given a chance. He needs to stay clean though and his teammates will need to accept him into the locker room when he returns. 3. I believe Greg Jennings can develop even better. When healthy I think he can obtain that status of a legit #2 receiver. He has great hands and runs great routes like stated in the article written above. What people don't know is how hard the west coast offense is to learn. Jennings for what he did was very impressive as a rookie and another year and off season learning the offense will only make him better. 4. I don't believe we need a #1 or #2 WR. I believe this team lacks a legit #3 receiver right now. Finding another guy to take pressure off of Jennings and Driver would open up the offense even more. A lot of key names are out there but just because we need a #3, doesn't mean we need a marquee name like Terrell Owens or Randy Moss. Just someone who can stretch the field and possibly play the slot for us would greatly improve this offense. We don’t need to sign someone to a Charles Woodson like contract. We just need someone to come play a key role for us. I like Patrick Crayton from Dallas but he’s a restricted free agent. 5. Finally Holiday and Martin are also going to improve. I'm not sold on either yet but they both have shown flashes of great potential and that's something we haven't had on our depth chart in a long time at receiver. We’ve had some high picks show potential but never undrafted players. [/QUOTE]
