Who else in the draft or Free agency can we actually get to replace TO, and please don't say Calvin Johnson, Jarrett or Ginn because they will be long gone when we pick.... So who do we replace TO with, please I need to Know

Who do the Eagles have at WR?

Or the Patriots? Or the Chargers? Or the Bears?

I'm sick of this notion that we have to "replace" T.O. with some other big-name star, or someone else just as big and fast. We don't. WR is just about the least important component of a Super Bowl-winning team.

Glenn is a #1 receiver and probably the best, most consistent guy we have.

Crayton has the best QB rating in the NFL when thrown to, and is a first down catching machine.

Hurd and Austin have both shown flashes.

We have Witten.

Fasano can move the chains.

We can utilize Jones and Barber more in the passing game.

We do not, AND DID NOT, need TO.;)

But I would draft a WR to groom as Glenn's eventual replacement and for depth.

I agree but would look at Drew Bennett to add to that mix.

Only two that ring a bell are Randy Moss or Drew Bennett. But Im not sure how either would fit.

Have the Chargers ever won anything and they have Gates and LT. The bears have a way better D than us also, plus they only won 1 bowl and that was because they had one of the best D's ever..

Ne won by luck, cheating the Raiders and have a pretty good QB in Brady which we don't have as of yet, Plus NE had one of the best Kickers that's clutch ever

I agree Calvin's a top 5 pick, but I wouldn't be shocked if Jarret or Ginn falls enough for us to trade up a few spots.

There are a couple of factors that can make this situation plausible.
1. Depends on what underclassmen declares.
2. The combine can expose players for what they really are.

Out this group who gets doubled? Crayton goes up against nickel and dime back all year, what happens when he goes against a #1 or 2 CB all game, Who's the threat now on O, Glenn? U have to be Kidding.

come on We don't use TO right Period.... he drops balls but so does every WR in the league, plus he get doubled all game almost, and no Crayton can not replace him otherwise we don't bring TO in....

Could of had him 10 years ago, and he bring the same package TO brings, well at least TO run routes and practice hard, not Moss so he says, he doesn't like to play sometimes.

It doesn't require a first to move a few spots in the second half of the first round. And draft day trades rarely involve players on the roster, but draft picks.

Has any Wr in the league won anything other than, Patriots WR, Hines Ward and Randle EL, actually their are at least 200 Wrs in the league and only about 20 has rings so what's ur point......Marvin Harrison, Steve Smith, Moss, TO, Fitzgerald, all the Pro Bowl Recievers have never won a bowl so that Theory is out the Window

Why doesn't it take a 1st to move up, unless u move up one spot, otherwise it will cost a first....
