I think he is the Wes Welker to our team. quick, not afraid to go across the middle and take a hit.


Except he catches passes more than 10-15 yards beyond the LOS...

We've already seen what it would look like with him as a first option. With Colston out 7 weeks and hampered by a thumb in 2008, he had 79 catches and 928 yards. Not too shabby.

He's got to be the smallest WR to go up the seam and make an all out stretch catch in the middle of the field. Great hands...

Look Ive said it before and Ill say it again. Lance is the best WR on this team and has been for awile. Colston is a great WR but hes more of a possession WR because of his size. Moore is fast and can make people miss after the catch. Colston just drags people along with him for more yards. Anyway both are great with different styles but I would take Lance over any of our other WRs.

I think he is great except when he is back to receive and then he becomes "Fair catch" Moore. I really don't know why they bother putting him back there.

possession WR


If a receiver catches the ball, does he not "possess" it? Wtf is this really supposed to mean? Colston catches all sorts of stuff. Curls, slants, sluggo, deep balls, etc. or am I missing something?

Also, lance goes down after the catch a lot because most of his catches he is diving or stretching at his outmost extension to catch the ball.

And I know colston is not a burner hence the "possession" receiver comment, but he does get doubled a lot and does every now and again get some yac.

Big guy that usually has someone draped on him when he catches it.

Thats what I meant, hes more of a finesse WR.

Im not taking anything away from Colston. Dont get all beside yourself.
