Steve Smith of Carolina who busted a teammates' jaw or Steve smith of giants who busted a teammates jaw in college?

As I've stated before I like Hankerson but only in the early 3rd not the 2nd.

3A. Leonard Hankerson – WR Miami (6-3/215)
Senior, 2010 Team Captain. All ACC First team in 2010. Third player in Miami history to record 1000 yd season (Eddie Brown-1983, Andre Johnson-2002) and first to have 2000 yds in career and 1000 yds in a season. 12 TD’s in 2010 broke Michael Irvin’s mark of 11 set in 1986. Top Senior WR but because there are so many Junior WR’s coming out he slips a little bit. Should provide good competition for Tate/Edleman for the 3rd WR spot and could eventually be the replacement for Branch.

BB will draft a WR -- if a premium player falls to him when he is picking. Just like the 2010 draft. BB traded up a few spots to grab GRONK. Then, he couldn't believe his good fortune -- Aaron Hernandez was waiting for NE in the 4th round. That is a gift. So, if the right WR -- one BB believes will succeed in NE with the right work ethic and character -- is available, BB will draft him irrespective of need.

We have Price in waiting, as well as Tate to hopefully expand his role. I don't see BB drafting a WR in the first three rounds unless somehow one of the top WRs fall to us. No way he trades up for a WR. Chad Jackson anyone?

Each offseason we grab at least 1 vet WR to add to the kids. This year I am hoping Ocho Cinco will take a discount and come play to win...finally. This year it was Holt, last year Galloway, Gabriel, Patton, the list goes on and on. He really doesnt like drafting WRs, the jury is still out on Tate, Price and Edleman.....

YouTube - It's all about the U - HankTime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IN all of these video clips, Hankerson is getting clean release off the LOS, he needs to show me that he can battle for position and use his hands to fight off a DB.

Yesterday Carsen Palmer looked like a real NFL QB for the first time in quite a while. Was it a coincidence that both Owens and Johnson were NOT playing? I think not.

Didn't our offense take off this year when we dumped our diva WR Moss?

When it comes to Johnson, I say "just say no!"

Agreed, the only association I want OhcoIdiot to have with my team is being flattened by McCourty. We don't need or want diva WRs, I'd be all over Steve Smith from Carolina, who would be a perfect fit for this offense, and I'd also like Megatron in a few years when his contract is up with Detroit. That being said I really like Randall "Tex" Cobb from Kentucky, while not looking like a future superstar he does look like a potential Troy Brown 2.0.

We don't need divas, we need lunchbucket producers.

It's something he could learn. Most WR take 3 years to get acclimated to the NFL. That's why it's not a big deal that Price had a redshirt year this year and it is really Brandon Tate's 1st year since he was on IR his rookie season.

That's why guys like Mike Wallace showing promise this year it just takes time.

Lot of love in this thread for quick smurfs, which the team is already loaded with. Meanwhile BB's been drafting (and signing) fleet six-footers like Tate, Price and Holt. So...Torrey Smith?
