Well, don't put too much emphasis on the last game of the year. It was Caldwell's worst game and Gaffney's best game, but judging a player's worth by the last game he played isn't very accurate.I think Caldwell and Gaffney are about equal in talent. One stepped up big time in the playoffs while the other did OK, but was shaky at times.

I dont think they are going to be in any rush to get him back. As stated in that article... it takes time for him to regain coordination in his knee. He is not going to be in a Braylon Edwards situation, where he will be expected to be the #1. They will bring him along slowly.
GREAT point..Givens worked his tail off after that..Juggs machine and all...and look see what happened?? He still dropped some..BUT way fewer...He improved to get his BIG contract..hard work pays off....always wondered why Graham never did...he was next in line for it..although he DID impriove some.Well, this makes sense. David Givens couldn't hold onto a ball to save his life his rookie year.
Right! In case you missed it, there's a mention of 12-18 months to be fully right again.
Last year, I put the over/under for Jackson's 2006 receptions at 17, which proved to be high. For the 2007 season, I am putting the over/under for Jackson's catches at..... 17.
Yeah, the stats don't show much. Caldwell had better stats than Gaffney in the Colts game, but Gaffney had a better game, as you point out. In the other two games, Caldwell had the better game, again not reflected in the stats. Gaffney did better when the other teams tried to take Caldwell out of the game, which makes sense. That's one reason I am hoping for a big year out of Caldwell next year. He really isn't a No 1 receiver, but should shine as a No 2. With Stallworth in the lineup, Caldwell will no longer be covered by the other teams best CB, and may even benefit from Stallworth being double-teamed. That should make a big difference.It wasn't just the last game. Gaffney outperformed Caldwell throughout the playoffs.
Vs. Jets
------------
Gaffney- 8 recps., 104 yards
Caldwell- 5 recps., 50 yards
@ Chargers
------------
Gaffney- 10 recps., 103 yards
Caldwell 7 recps., 80 yards
@ Colts*
------------
Caldwell- 4 recps., 46 yards
Gaffney- 3 recps., 37 yards
*Looks like both had subpar games, but you must consider Gaffney's clutch TD catch and Caldwell's drops
Let's see who comes out on top when they both get to spend the entire offseason with the team.
The difference between Rookie Givens and Second Year Givens was so dramatic as to be almost unbelievable.GREAT point..Givens worked his tail off after that..Juggs machine and all...and look see what happened??
i was happy to read that CJ will return allready in June-July
You must be really busy transferring funds for the son of the Nigerian Finance Minister
He is saying that Albert Breer is a liar in the Metrowest article, and is scamming you, and that you are gullible to believe him (Breer).sorry but i have not understood what do you mean
It really was and his hands got SOOOO much better...He was almost a 1 in 100 chance receiver to make it and THROUGH his hard work..he got teh big bucks. Really..I can not at all take anything away from him...he worked his tail off for the green!!! Funny..of the few who left..so few said anything bad about him..compared to teh others who left..The difference between Rookie Givens and Second Year Givens was so dramatic as to be almost unbelievable.
It's a little different, Givens wasn't a full time WR in college, McKnight is. He should be a better WR now than he showed me this year.Well, this makes sense. David Givens couldn't hold onto a ball to save his life his rookie year.

I would love to see Chad heal quickly and return to the field A.S.A.P.. Jackson, when on the field, has shown flashes of what he can do. However, with the additions of Welker, Stallworth and Washington, will enable the coaching staff to bring Jackson along slowly. I wouldn't be surprised if he has another season like his first because of the veteran recievers ahead of him and no need to rush him on the field. Don't worry, he will not be the next Bethel Johnson, he's only 22 years old.
