Wright played last year. I don't see Jackson doing anything this year. Gaffney has surpassed him.

* Based on Thomas's short resume it's too bad Watson doesn't have as good a pair of hands as he does. It appears David can catch anythying in his reach.

He may have better hands for a TE than Ben Coates...not saying he will be a Coates ... just unbelievable soft pair of hands for a TE and his speed is not to shabby. He will keep Watson on his toes for sure. I won't compare him to Graham because Graham is an A+ blocker and his catches are just a diversion.

I said he has hands of glue. He caught everything Vince Young threw his way last year.
