Any Love For Nate?

he wouldn't be a bad pickup, but curtis is a much better pickup for the same price. and i rather have KR for no picks than nate for a 3rd.

Yep - I screwed up reading the restricted free agency rules. The Vikings have to make a qualifying offer to Nate first (3/2/2006) deadline, and the level of their offer (if they even make one) determines what compensation they receive if they don't match the offer and he signs with another team.

Burleson is only 6 feet tall, but he has a 42.5 inch vertical leap, so he plays taller.

And don't over analyze what happened to his stats last year - he missed four games due to injury and was banged up with knee and shoulders problems for much of the season. Once Moss left, there was no #1 receiver on that team and the entire receiving corps underperformed as a result. Nate had 1,000 yards receiving and NINE touchdowns in 2004 opposite Randy Moss in only his second year in the league. I'm just saying that he'll be a more than capable #2 receiver primarily against single coverage if he's playing for the Redskins opposite Santana Moss.

remember the seasons that Peerless Price use to have in Buffalo because he played along side moulds? That who this guys reminds me of...and santana does not get nearly as much attention as R. moss does even if santana does get doubled everytime... because no team is scared of the vikes running game (like they are with clinton)...R. moss use to get doubled teamed with additional saftey help! So i dont think Nate would have the impact at number 2 we need.
