Andre Johnson is in my opinion the best receiver in football and the way Fitz has been playing I'd have to put him at a very close 2nd so I think the risk vs. reward is well worth it.

Read my mind exactly. Andre and Fitz I believe are clearly the best receivers in the league right now, but Randy Moss (don't forgot about him just because Cassell doesn't throw deep much) and Calvin Johnson are quite close.bobflipaburger said:Andre Johnson is in my opinion the best receiver in football and the way Fitz has been playing I'd have to put him at a very close 2nd so I think the risk vs. reward is well worth it.

we also had two first round picks that draft ..makes a difference in the areas you can address...plus I'm really only looking at the current management not over all history
If you luck out and get TJ..what would be the next need ? Everyone is going to say something different , but a back up to walter is a waste of money...that pick has to be an impact player and a guy who plays right away.......My hope is Runningback..these rookie backs are tearing it up and we need a break a way back that will suck the LB's up...JJ doesn't scare anybody and never will....and maybe a kid taking his job may spark a fire under his sorry ass..but i doubt it
This is makes-me-want-to pull my hair out moronic. Tackles like that are very rare. Great football teams are built from the inside out. That back you want will need a hole to run through. Do you remember watching DeMarcus Ware abuse our line on thanksgiving? Walt is getting old, and though he MAY have a year or two left, he isn't what he was.Idahawk said:but a back up to walter is a waste of money...that pick has to be an impact player and a guy who plays right away.......My hope is Runningback..these rookie backs are tearing it up and we need a break a way back that will suck the LB's up...JJ doesn't scare anybody and never will....and maybe a kid taking his job may spark a fire under his sorry ass..but i doubt it

I personally feel that Walter is likely not going to make it through the season. He's been playing since 97 and starting to see a drop off. I think it's dumb that people think he can keep going forever while some of these same people think that Hass, who probably does have some good years left, should go. I don't remember your list of Top-5 WR's, I'll check it out when I get home from work.Seattlehawk94 said:So you want to take a player who won't help NOW while we still have a window to win?
You know what's pull your hair out moronic? The fact I gave you a list of Top-5 WRs and you don't respond because you were wrong..
Oh, btw...Robert Gallery was taken in the Top-5 and he was a "can't miss"...Great pick eh? :lol:
You made that list in response to SeahawkWag not me. I thought the list was solid. I'm going to be happy if we get Crabtree, but I'll also be happy if we get Andre Smith or Michael Oher. Whats up with the concept of the "window" Why are so many people convinced its going to close?Seattlehawk94 said:So you want to take a player who won't help NOW while we still have a window to win?
