Help for KC at Wide Receiver - Page 9

Wilson8 · 02-26-2008, 11:14 PM

Just found this information and thought I would share with you.

There's been a lot written about the KC Chiefs needing to draft or sign a free agent wide receiver to compliment Dwayne Bowe. The following might shed some light on the free agent wide receivers.

I found this web site and it has some pretty interesting stats - http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/wr.php

I took the information from that Web site and then created a list for free agent wide receivers for this year.

Free Agent Wide Receivers Available for 2008
Justin Gage, TEN Titans, made 65% of catches on balls thrown to him. Ranked 28th with this footballoutsider.com evaluation.
Dante Stallworth, NE Patriots, made 62% of catches on balls thrown to him.
Ranked 31st.
Jabar Gaffney, NE Patriots, made 72% of catches on balls thrown to him. Ranked 41st.
Bernard Berrian, CHI Bears, made 55% of catches on balls thrown to him.
Ranked 53rd.
Andre Davis, HOU Texans, made 52% of catches on balls thrown to him. Ranked 63rd.
Bryant Johnson, ARZ Cardinals, made 52% of catches on balls thrown to him.
Ranked 71st.
D.J. Hackett, SEA Seahawks, made 68% of catches on balls thrown to him. Not ranked because only had 47 passes thrown to him.
Devery Henderson, NO Saints, made 48% of catches on balls thrown to him.
Not ranked because only had 42 passes thrown to him.
Samie Parker, KC Chiefs, made 62% of catches on balls thrown to him. Not ranked because only had 39 passes thrown to him.

And I just don't see how you can crap all over the Chiefs but then say the Bills have an up and coming Offense. I just don't see much of a difference between the two.

Besides Bowe and possibly Croyle, who exactly is the young and up coming players on offense that we can build around?

I never said the Chiefs had a young, up and coming offense, but I fail to see how the Bills do either. See, that's my thing. To act like the Bills have it all figured out and have a crop of young, talented players on offense is hilarious. The grass is always greener...

Lee Evans and D Bowe are 2 very different players. Lee Evans stretches the hell out of the field but can't go across the middle like D Bowe. It's like saying Randy Moss is better than Wes Welker. Wes can't do the shit Randy does, and Randy can't do the shit Wes does.

His agent said that.......I think they have more talent then we do, but that isn't saying alot.

You could be right.
We'll have to see if Chiefs brass has any interest in him though...

Bad comparison. Moss is clearly the elite receiver compared to Welker. Lee Evans is better for now but he is NOT clearly the elite receiver. I'm pretty sure Bowe had a better rookie season than Evans did.

Lee Evans is a bad-ass and hard to compare to Bowe. Evans is a speedy receiver who catches everything thrown his way. Bowe is a more of a possession receiver. Both are great. Those two together would be the perfect one-two combo. Screw trading for Losman, let's go after Lee Evans. LOL.

There are those that started their careers in the arena leagues that became very productive players in the NFL once given the chance.

At least we know that help is definitely on the way now that Kennison is gone.

Don't count on it; remember the idiot who is the head coach.
