We ranked 12 in red zone scoring percentage last year.


Since when did being 12 out of 32 teams become a bad thing??

HTran im with ya... I think Benjamin has the biggest bust factor going for him. Agree with all the reasons you listed. He doesnt bring anything to the position except height. There are guys only an inch or 2 shorter that are way more complete at WR. I see Benjamin and Evans being compared to VJax. I see it with Evans, not with KB. People dont realize how big of a freak VJax really is / was in college.

And we already have a speedster in Stills, so I dont see the need for a guy like Cooks or OBJ. Its funny when people say Stills is a possession WR, not a deep threat, and doesnt play as fast as he is. He led the NFL in YPC as a rookie. Stupid when peopel say hes not a burner or whatever. Thats exactly what he is.

RandalThor, I think Matthews is the 3rd best WR also. I woudnt mind if we take him at 27. Not one bit. IMO, hes the best fit for our offense and can come in and play immediately. Great size, speed, hands, and route running. And best of all for me, he is reliable and clutch in the big moment. He wants the ball thrown his way in crunch time. He can grasp the offense and is already polished to the point where he can play as a starter day 1. Cant say the same for most of the WRs in this class. He reminds me so much of Reggie Wayne, and is taller by a few inches.

I like Moncrief as well... but hes also tough to figure out as well production wise. Big, strong, fast, and athletic as hell. But never really became that monster on the field that you think he would be.

Graham, Colston, Matthews, and Stills, with Brees throwing them the ball.... good luck trying to stop us.

Stills is not a speedster. Give me Cooks all day dude is like TY Hilton mixed with Desean Jackson/Tavon Austin except more consistent. Homeroom threat every time he's on the field. Dude is flash.

Edit: forgot to add Steve Smith.
