If you're going to grade guys as 1, 2, and 3, then do so by playing time. In that regard he would have been a #3 WR. There are already multiple ways to reference the specific WR position they're playing and none of them are numbers.

After boldin left he was a decent 2nd option and incredibly good 3rd option. I like Breaston. It's not worth thinking about why he wasn't playing, because there is no sane reason.
