Tall/fast does not equal most naturally gifted wide receiver.  Most naturally gifted athletic specimen? Go for it, but not close on the former.

He was the number one high school recruit in the nation in 2012 for a reason.

But we aren't giving up a 2nd round pick.

Read what he said.

You are right about Shockey though.

I was right about Alshon Jeffery being the best receiver in his draft class and I'll be right about this.

Between Harvin and DGB I'm starting to see a pattern on how you evaluate talent. I can't wait to see what happens when Jon Baldwin gets cut.

Bryce Brown was the #1 recruit in the nation one year too

Don't think I forgot about all the hate I received on YDKF for suggesting that we should have traded up for him.

Nearly everyone wanted Alshon Jeffrey

That's not the only way I evaluate talent... and Jon Baldwin sucks...

Bryce Brown was the #1 recruit in the nation one year too

He still has a chance to be a productive back in Buffalo, but your point is irrelevant.

This was before the draft. I suggested that I'd be willing to give up a 1st to move back into the 1st for Jeffery.

Plus he was clearly a great receiver, his issue was people questioning work ethic as unfair as it may have been. DGB is clearly meh.

I like T.Y. Hilton too but they're completely different players. Hilton doesn't have the skillset that Jeffery has to catch jump balls down the field.

Alshon Jeffrey in NY is most likely different player than he is in Chicago

but again, nearly everyone in our draft community was extremely high on him
