I'm not sure what tossing up a list of camp bodies really shows.
I'm not trying to say any of them would be as good as CJ, or R.Moss, or T.O. but certainly the Skins should have been able to turn one of them into a half decent WR maybe catching a few balls for first down if nothing else. Instead we have the marry-go-round effect of WR's. I have to think part of the problem is obviously the talent scouts getting crappy talent but more to the point is Hixon could not develope anyone. Could not get any type of production out of them. Our only productive WR's are Moss who was developed with the Jets prior to coming here, ARE who was developed with the Steelers....and thats it. Thomas and Kelly were 2nd round WR's? why aren't they productive?

I have to imagine its whatever Hixon is teaching and or not teaching. How he has them running their routes and how he's teaching them to get seperation. Nothing is working. I like Moss but even (in my eyes) his production under Hixon is getting worse each year. This yr is the only yr that ARE has actually looked like the WR we brought in to help the team.
