Philly cut WR Kevin Curtis today.

He has been hurt a lot the past 2 years. So you can take it one of two ways...he is well rested, or is he done and has nothing left.

Might be worth a gamble. Got nothing to lose. When healthy he can produce!

Nah, we need a #1 not another #2.

I don't know why RACE has anything to do with it....but actually its Brian Hartline.

it's just a question--like who was the last player from ucla we drafted, or something like that. no need to get your panties in a bunch.
but yeah, for some reason I thought of schwedes and completely forgot about welker, camarillo, and hartline

The better question is who was our last real # 1 receiever?

Irving Fryar.....I can't think of a legit #1 we had had since then.

Guys like Gadsden and Chambers were never legit #1 WR's, they were just the best WR's we had on our team.

Better question, what defines a true #1?

True #1 is someone the other team's defense has to gameplan for...

So on Pittsburg this year, who did you game plan for? Ward or Santonio? If every team doesn't have a true number #1, then I can only think of about 6 true #1s throughout the whole league.

We're not the only team with this problem. We're also not the only team that missed the playoffs last year.

I'm not arguing that we have a #1, I'm just pointing out that the definition is blurred and open to interpretation. I think you could have a good Rec core without a true #1, thats all.

1) I could argue Santonio is a true #1 now.

2) There are more than 6 TRUE #1 WR's. Andre Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Randy Moss, Reggie Wayne,Vincent Jackson, Brandon Marshall, Steve Smith (carolina) and you can debate a couple guys like Boldin and Colston as legit #1's

Ok I said ABOUT 6 and you named 8? Out of 32 teams thats still a low %

"1) I could argue Santonio is a true #1 now."
Ward had 95 Rec.s for 1167 yrds with 6 Tds
Holmes had 79 rec.s for 1248 yrds with 5 Tds

I gave you 8 locks.

There are about 4 or 5 guys I said would be "debatable" #1's. Like Santonio, Boldin, Colston...I think the number is closer to 12 to 15 #1 WR's in the league.

And thsoe are the teams fighting for the Super Bowl. No conencidence

No I think I proved my point that it's highly debatable on who some teams true #1 is. I think you could debate it either way and not come away with a true winner.

Andre Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Randy Moss, Reggie Wayne,Santonio Holmes, Vincent Jackson, Brandon Marshall, Steve Smith, Roddy White, Kenny Britt and Hakim Nicks are headed that way....Sidney Rice, Mile Austin, Desean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Michael Crabtree, Boldin will be a #1 in NY, Randy Moss, Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, Percy Harvin, Ocho Cinco.

Then there are young players that are still trying to break out....Ted Ginn, Devin Thomas, Malcomb Kelly, Louis Murphy and M. Massaquoi.

I know you didnt make the point eesti, but all those above names are true #1s but Chris Chambers wasn't when he was in Miami? (ps I wont even pull a Mike and make a huge point of it that you said "Boldin in NY" And agian my point is, is that it's a highly debatable point as to who a true #1 is

That would be my list minus Nicks and Britt

oh yeah...Boldin in Baltimore (thank god not NY).

Also add Steve Smith for the NYG.

Hakeem Nicks...47/790/6 in 14 games as a rookie.

Kenny Britt...42/701/3 really came on at the end of the year.

Back to Curtis. This guy did put up big numbers when healthy, Im not so sure we shouldn't look at him.

I mean he won't demand big money. If he stinks he can be an easy cut at no loss. He is a VET guy who could be a leader of our young WR group.

I don't know what physical condition he is in, but he can play!

I say no way.

5'11 186 lbs and will be 32 in July.

He's had one good year (1110/6) and one ok year (801/6).

03 (25 yrs old) 13 yards
04 421 yards
05 801 yards
06 479
07 1110
08 390
09 77 yards

He will just take snaps away from young and still improving players.

I'll take Torry Holt over this guy any day of the week.
