Who ya got and why. I'd take Colston any day of the week. Less of a headache and more of a red zone threat.

easy, Colston. Marshall won't make it 7 years in the league with his off field antics.

If Colston could remain healty, he'd easily be all-pro. He should have been in the Pro Bowl after 07.

Talent wise I think Brandon Marshall is better, especially since he has a talent for staying healthy.

Wouldn't trade Colston for Marhsall though. The talent isn't signifcantly better to justify the off field problems

Marshall drops a lot of passes. Colston had the drops last year too, but at least he has an excuse and normally has hands of glue.

Plus he's not completely retarded. Colston my a mile.

Colston, not even close, where's the guy who said we should trade Brees and Colston for Cutler and Marshall because Cutler was younger than Brees and it would keep our window of opportunity open? He'll probably say Marshall because he's a year younger than Colston

Marshall... I think playing with Brees and a team that throws this much he will be a happy player.... with his talent he could easily have 80-100 catches 1500 yards and 15 TD's

Even if Marshall was happy on the field it still wouldn't stop him from trying to kill his girlfriends.

I dont care what he does in offseason as long as it doesnt make him miss a game on field...

Didnt bother me when Horn was sleeping with Roafs wife as long as it doesnt on field production

Normally I wouldn't care either, but Marshall already had to miss a game last year because of it. After seeing Outside the Lines on Marshall, dude seems like a batshit crazy woman beater. If he keeps getting arrested for it Goddell is gonna have to crack down on him.

Well it kind of did affect on field performance because Roaf immediately wanted to be traded.

He is a little nuts yeah, might miss 1/2 games a season due to something stupid. But is that any different than Colston missing 1/2 games because of injury, or being ineffective in some because of injury.

Just saying based on talent I would take Marshall, in this offense I believe he would thrive.

If Marshall wasn't a headcase, i think it'd be a no brainer in favor of Marshall.

But he is a head case, so it's a no brainer that I'd take Colston.

Maybe not that season, but after that, Roaf left. In that situation, do you want to lose a good WR or a great LT. I'd lose that great WR any day over that great LT. Too hard to find good LT's

Shockey hasn't run anyone off yet, I dont think Marshall would either unless he chokes another players g/f instead of his own, or sleeps with another players wife.

That's not the fear. The fear is that he's going to pull a Pacman and be gone.

hasn't he caught 200 balls the past 2 years (which weren't even full years due to suspension)?
