       Green Bay - Greg Jennings

       Detroit - Calvin Johnson
       Chicago - ?

       Yeah, no matter how you slice it, we really had no true No 1 WR.

       Why do we necessarily need it? I think we can be very effective
       without a true #1 receiver. If we just get that OLine fixed.

       I don't believe our WR's are as crappy as yapper claims they
       are.
       We have quality at the position and don't believe a 4th rounder
       or less from this year's draft could come in and make an
       immediate impact so complaining about not drafting one doesn't
       make sense to me.
       With Knox, Hester, and Bennett we have a neucleus to work with.
       Still to this day we don't know why Martz didn't like Aromashadu
       and never gave him a real chance to play.  He could be that
       feature WR that some of the guys are craving for here.  Martz
       just won't play him just like him not giving Kellen Davis some
       PT at the TE spot.  Davis should be utilized more with his size
       and strength.
       I like our WR's and TE's going into the season.  If the Angelo
       gets a big name receiver in then it'll be making a position
       that's pretty good much better.
       Just don't understand why some are dogging our WR's.

       Because when some look at Jennings, Driver, Jones and
       Nelson...they see your best is maybe fourth in that group.

       If Martz was the only guy down on Aromashadu I might agree but
       he couldn't catch on with other teams either. It's not just
       Martz.

       What I can't figure out is why Aroma was supposedly in the
       doghouse for not going over the middle... yet Knox, whose game
       is just as "soft", plays full-time.
       Maybe it's a personality thing.

       Our group was a game from the Super Bowl.
       WR wasn't the issue with why we didn't make it.  I'll take our
       group any day of the week.

       I agree, however, we do need a taller more physical receiver.
       Right now, not having seen or had any specs on that new
       Canadian, I dont know if we need another receiver or not. Knox
       sure isnt physical enough and neither is Hester.

       I agree.  WR is not our biggest need.  However a big tall WR
       that could get the jump balls would help Cutler immensley
       because when he is in trouble he could just throw it out there
       and let him get it.  We do not have that receiver on our team
       right now and Cutler needs one.
       However I would take a guard over a Wr in free agency 10 times
       out of ten.
