That could have been a close one.

Also goes to show that even though Brees does make guys look better, you still have to have talent to be good.

Colston, despite the doomsayers, is still good.

I'll try to find it, but there was a chart that showed avg. HB production at each age vs. avg. WR production at each age(somewhere on ESPN) and WRs last a lot longer than HBs on average.

I think a 24 year old WR has equal avg. production to a 32 year old WR if memory serves right.

A really good example of why you can't just look at college production.

You're a research maniac so I'm prob wrong, but it seemed to me that dalton and Reuben were the same year too

I feel like Greg Romeus would have developed into a stud if he couldve stayed healthy
