you're basically saying size matters, but it doesn't matter. Pick a side and stick to it.
i probably said what you are referring to, except that wasn't what I said.
I said we are just as likely to find a WR1 caliber player in RD2 than in Rd1. And that Cooks' size in the end may prevent him from being that. Not that he is a bad player, i really like him. But they have bigger WR's in Rd2 that actually have the measureables to be WR1.
Never fricking said that.

This whole thing started with a couple of people saying we don't need to DRAFT a short WR like Cooks, but someone 6'2" or bigger in the DRAFT.

There is no magic saying a 6' something WR is automatically better than all sub 6' WRs.

I'm saying size is one of many factors, but not the most important one like some here are saying.
And the rest of the stuff you quoted was directed towards my original discussion with the other fellows that you stepped in on while breaking one point of a larger discussion into a side tangent.
And the stuff about WR1 or WR2 or whatnot doesn't mean jack because those are depth chart positions and not roles. DeSean Jackson was a WR1. Steve Smith was a WR1. Golden Tate was a WR1.
Not everyone has a Calvin or Andre Johnson as their WR1.
Cooks can(not saying will) be a WR1 just as easily as Matthews. It all depends on their talent level, what team drafts them, and how they use them.
Size isn't going to determine if you are a WR1, it just gives a slight edge that can easily be lost if you suck at the other stuff. Same can be said of the speed guys and that giving them a leg up. If they can't catch all the speed means jack shite.
