Could Bam come up and fill Stallworth's role in '08?
 
Does anyone think that Bam could come up next season and fill the Stallworth type role?? Not the WR2 (obviously) and I know he is not as tall, but he and Donte have a similar style (both being able to make good moves in space and pick up good YAC).

I could see Gaffney and Jackson battling for the WR2, with WWW staying in the slot where he is most dangerous.

Bam has had a few years now to learn the system, and could be ready to contribute with the big club next season. He strikes me as a BB type of player. A "C" calibre guy, who Bill and brady can make produce like a B+.

Some young guys take a few years to mature. Especially in this system. Theres allot to learn. It was only his second season.

no, and he wont have to...

Moss(assuming he stays) is number 1,

WW is obviously slot

then Jabar and Chad take up number 2 spot....and the other comes in on 4 wide sets...

either way, both jabar and chad i think well be able to take over for stallworth....easily too

Stallworth is a first round pick, and has been in the league for six seasons... Childress was undrafted and has only played 3 games with the big club.

That's not a fair comparison.

I know. It's an insult to Stallworth to suggest that some scrub is going to come in and match his production.

If you are looking for a guy on the team to take Donte's spot next year, look no further than......


Mr. Chad Jackson.
