Well best "eyeball" test. Would obviously be Dobson, I think Austin ends up with the better numbers this year among that group.

patterson will have the best season, most big play ability.. huge wr thats super fast, and will take a couple punts or kicks back to the house

If he can stay healthy, I'd take Austin. He should be a slot type guy like Amendola was with the Rams. Austin just has more play making ability than Amendola

From everything I've read Rams are going to try to use Austin like Eagles use Jackson, even lining him up in the backfield to get touches. Seems they want him to touch the ball as much as possible

Except Christian Ponder is his QB

Austin [should] make the most immediate impact.

300 completions
harvin and Jenkins ~120 catches missing
Jennings hovers around 60-70 catches, but that's with rodgers...I don't like him as a player.
BigPat 40-60 catches...8-10 tds?(i think possible)
Of course Dobson has the better situation with Brady and need.
Not seeing Hopkins being able to show much
Austin scares me. Need and situation exist, just don't see him being able to take the hits....yes he's small & fast, but he's not a possession WR like Welker or Danny. I have to see him and bradford connect and see how his speed translates into the NFL

I am hoping Patterson.
I am also hoping Rodgers decides to follow Favre's footsteps and leaves GB for Minnesota (but bypasses the Jets).

300 completions!! Awesome!
Sub 3k yards
18 TDs in 16 games (9 to Kyle Rudolph)
15 of the TDs from 10 yards or less
Worst yards per attempt among starting QBs
Worst yards per game among starting QBs
Produced 2 100 yard recieving games in 2012 (11 and 12 catch games by Harvin for 100+ yds)
I think Patterson is a stud. Probably went to the absolute worst situation possible for his skill set

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson will have to battle for a starting gig in the offense, but he already has the inside track to start as the returner.
The rookie spent the first two days of training as the primary kick returner -- Percy Harvin's former job -- and impressed coach Leslie Frazier.
"It wasn't like starting from zero like we thought it might be," Frazier said, per the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "That encourages all of us

Coach Leslie Frazier has been impressed with first-round WR Cordarrelle Patterson through the early days of Vikings camp.
"If you were going to put together a receiver, he would look like Cordarrelle," Frazier said. "He has the vertical speed to get behind defensive backs. That won’t be an issue. That’s going to give us a dimension we didn’t have a year ago." Frazier also believes Patterson is "hungry" and "maturing" after questions about his character and on-the-field maturity dogged him in the run up to the draft. A raw prospect, Patterson's touches may have to be manufactured as a rookie, but we don't doubt he'll make something of them.

Based on situation I'd say Austin first then Hopkins

This didn't hurt percy Harvin's production when he was healthy

If he plays the Harvin role, sure. But Harvin ypc is routinely very low and Ponder's ypa is the lowest in the league.
Patterson 6'2" 4.4 forty with a 37" vert. You would think he would be a downfield guy. If the Vikings give up that notion and throw screens and quick slants to him all day then that could be a different story.
