I can see that, but I think that most teams have enough trouble being happy with their #1 and #2 WR's much less three. The only scenario where I think your really going to be much better skill wise at WR#3 is in the case of drafting a young guy to develop. Jacoby SHOULD be that guy, but Gonzales in Indy is probably a better example.

One reason I like this is Anderson appears to appreciate being here. Your not going to find many guys who are athletically better than Anderson who are content to be #3 who also run a good route and have excellent hands. Again, Jacoby is a great example...who do you trust more to run the route correctly and make the catch at this point? Jacoby is more athletically gifted than DA, but he's not the WR that DA is at this point.


I don't think there's any doubt that he will work his tail off for you.
