Go get me a juice box!
This is the stuff I find hilarious (to you and all the other posters who felt the need to quote me).
People read a scouting report and combine numbers like that is the judge/jury. Like they've watched the snaps he's put in with the Saints like they have with Mike Wallace here in Miami. I truthfully haven't seen a ton of him with the Saints, but I saw quite a bit of him at Oklahoma . . . I have a pretty good idea of what type of WR he is.
Wallace is much faster on the field than Stills is, commands more respect and can separate from defenders on another level. The disrespect he's getting because he doesn't make "jump ball catches" is just unwarranted. But hey, what else should I expect?
Is Stills better at it, yea I guess so . . . but lets not pretend he is some all world talent at WR or that he's a better WR than Mike Wallace. He just isn't, at least not yet. Posters on Finheaven have the tendency to put these guys on a pedastool and then a year or 2 later go ape**** on the coach and the GM, when that's the player they cosigned to begin with.
"Oh Dansby is old and overpaid and so is Burnett, we got younger and faster at linebacker with Wheeler and Ellerbe I love what Jeff Ireland has done" . . . . yea ok . . . hell people defended Naanee in 2012 because of their disdain for Brandon Marshall, saw what he did with Rivers in San Diego and actually had the nerve to think the fall off wouldn't be that big. Oh I love Keller and Moreno signings, go GM go, and then when they get hurt . . . "Ireland should of had a backup plan and all Hickey did was bring in hurt guys". So when people show a little concern about the moves in regards to throwing Cameron and Clay big money . . . . understand the track record and what we've seen.
I like the fit here for Stills better than I did for Wallace, and I like the trades (because of cap ramifications and what was going to be the result in 2016 . . . Wallace cut) but a lot of that has to do with the QB and what he is good at.
So much win here. I remember those days and they were freaking nauseating. I remember hearing "This offense doesn't need a #1 receiver" when we signed LegaPooPoo.
