Santonio Holmes

[Badger]

Any chance that this guy falls to #21? I would love to get him if we can't trade for Walker. Don't like Jackson. Something about those Florida recievers. I also like Mauroney as well though I don't think we'll use a #1 on him. I am a Wisconsin alumn so I am biased but Brian Calhoun is the best overall back I have seen at Wisconsin (including Dayne who is the all-time college football rushing leader) and I would absolutely love to see us grab him in Round 2. This guy has the Patriot mentality and hands the ball to the referee every single time he gets up after a tackle. Fast and elusive as hell. He never gets hit squarely and is very durable.

No thanks... Defense first... Get a WR in a trade

He certainly could be there at #21. He wouldn't be my first choice but him and Branch together does intrigue me. I would look to the group of lower guys like Jennings, Hass, Stovall, Avant, etc, starting in the second and third round though.

Is Santonio Holmes plus Sinorice Moss = Santana Moss?

Holmes is a bigger faster version of Branch but not as quick says Vrabel.

Has Mike Vrabel personally scouted all the Ohio State players!?!?
It's funny, the guy has a very informed opinion on all their prospects.

I liked what I saw at the end of the season, and the bowl. Then someone described him as the next Terry Glenn, on, and off the field. Oops. Didn't I live through that once?

Santonio Holmes strikes me as a solid #2 WR... but I don't view him as a potential #1 WR

Jackson I do view as having the skills to be a #1 - but at a gut feeling that he might not pan out.

So for me it comes down to Holmes as more of a sure thing as a #2 at best, and Jackson as a potential #1 but also potential disappointment.
