Hows about the loser go to Randy White's restaurant, kick him in the sack and see if you can make it out the door without getting a grade A Beat-down.

You first.

I think the poll is good enough to sort it out. Obviously its subjective but it should get the job done.

That's cool although it's a little vague. Solid 2-4 is a cop out IMO. He's still garbage because you can be a solid 4 but be a garbage 2 and 3. Austin is garbage though anyways. Below average KR and alright as a 4th option with TO on the field.

Since I'm on your side of the wager I was going to allow you to be my representative! :)

No way Jose. I got inside knowledge from that time and he's absolutely one guy to not screw around with. If he found out I set all this up he'd kill me, too.

Most people know what crappy means altho again it is subjective. The number 4 WR is going to see the field. A crappy WR is not going to see the field.

Miles is big, fast, strong, and talent. He just doesn't have the mentailty to be a #1. I'm not even talking about being an extreme ego. I mean, he just doesn't seem to completely believe in himself.

I love this guy. I think he will be a solid WR next season if he can stay healthy. I think he and Romo have good chemistry.

Is this a lesser of two evils IMO. Austin is crap however, he's slightly better then the other crap on the roster so he gets to see the field.

Most teams have to have three WRs at a minimum. The fourth needs to have the skill to start if/when someone is injured. And there are times 4 WRs are on the field at the same time. 5 on some teams. Yes, the 1 and 2 are better than a 4 on most teams. That doesn't say the 4 is crap though.

It's obvious to most people he's not close to crappy. I'm actually surprised so many people think he's better than a solid two.

Cardinals do. Packers do also. Colts and Pat's had 3 good WR also.

I messed that up. I changed it to most teams have 3 WRs at a minimum (which is what I meant) but you really need that 4th to be capable of starting and/or being effective in 4 and 5 WR sets. You don't always get that but you need that if you're thinking SB. Too risky to think no injuries will occur to the 1-3 WRs.

I don't know what Austin will be but I'm looking forward to seeing if he can become a major player on this team

Our WR depth sucks.
Austin is good, but we can't rely on him to produce.
We need to either sign another WR or draft a good one.
We can't continue to have 7th round WR projects, most don't pan out.

I'm now dying to see who. I started to make the poll reveal voting but decided to be kind. I'm wondering if anyone got to vote more than once for it using an alias. Probably not but it's discouraging to think there are even four on the board that bad at evaluating talent.

I'm not going to say MIles is crap, but his play was close to crap last year. We shall see this year, no one is off limits to me next year. The excuse is gone, now let's see who really has skills around here.

I'm in the middle of the road with Austin.

He shows something then gets hurt. He'll contribute to nothing then gets hurt. It's to evaluate him right now. I still believe Dallas needs a "TRUE SPEED WR" and it doesn't need to be a big name either. I figured Devery Henderson would be a good option, but he re-signed with the Saints.

You have a good chance of being right about Austin although I think he's going to be a pretty solid WR for us if he stays healthy.

I wouldn't be opposed to a real speed merchant out there at times. I'd rather wait to see how Austin does this year unless of course a speed guy is the BPA 5-7 and is a good WR as well as speed guy.

What's that guys name here last camp who was so fast? I thought they may try to keep the guy. He was A Wright fast.
