Hankerson going over 1000 yards is...not likely. Dude always takes his time before you go "WOW!" and his recovery from his injury had a late start because they delayed the surgery, hoping that they wouldn't have to perform the surgery. Maybe next year. Garçon has a better shot at 1000 yards if he indeed takes over for Moss.

Hankerson 900 yards 7 TDs
Davis 800 4 TDs
Garcon 700 yards 5 TDs
Cooley 450 yards 3 TDs
Morgan 400 2 TDs

everyone else: 450 yards 2 TDs

We did throw for nearly 4k with the garbage of QBs this year.

switch garcon and hank

I feel like we're going in circles now where you devalue Moss and Gaffney's actual production while talking up heretofore unseen production from a UDFA rooke RT and a drastically underperforming and injured RT.
My point is simple net-net Gaffney and Moss are better WRs then Willie Smith and Jammal Brown are RTs.
I don't see how anyone can say they know what Gaffney and Moss provide and say its not much when compared against the level of play at the RT position.

2011
Jabar Gaffney 68 catches 947 yards 5 tds
Pierre Garcon 70 catches 947 yards 6 tds
Santana Moss 48 catches 548 yards 4 tds (missed 4 games with a broken hand)
Moss's 2010 season (then one where he didn't break his hand like this year) 93 catches(top 10), 1,115 yards(top 10) 6 tds

The stats are for reference.
For example when you say that Moss/Gaffney don't provide much you can look refer to the stats and see there actual production numbers.

Me too.

Actually the only one making blind statistical inferences is you.
I posted the stats you made assumptions and inferences based on the stats.

I'd like a RT too, but we are not in a position to sit back and relax at the state of our WR corps either, especially two years from now, when Gaffney cross that threshold into the realm of unproductiveness(33 years of age) and we only have Leonard Hankerson's game against Miami to say it's not a problem.

Who said anything about sitting back and relaxing about our WR corps? I surely did not:

So again, simply put I think addressing the RT position this offseason with a proven quality starter provides greater benefit to our rookie QB then adding a couple of 2nd tier WRs with upside.
Or as i've stated previously:

But, again for me I think RT more so they any other position on offense was the weakest link on our starting 11.
I'm an oldschool type guy and I think physical superiority at the point of attack is the single most successful way to improve an offense.
I think finding a definitive upgrade at the RT position, more then any else, would be the most beneficial to support a rookie QB.
If people expect a Cam Newtonesque season from Griffin people shouldn't overlook the quality of Newton's OL.

Ouch. Interesting you add Moss though since I think almost everyone has written him off as a goner.

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

That's 4k plus and ouch on Hank, I think Moss's age is what hurts him.

Gaffney's around the same age though. I think he's only a year younger.

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

yeah he is and I have both of them gone.

lol well that's fair. I'll never agree with Gaffney staying and Moss going. If anything they both need the boot.

Haha. I had it backwards.

For the life of me I don't understand why everyone has written Moss off.
Dude played through a broken hand this year and is only one year removed from a top 10 season in catches and yards.
And Moss knows this offense and plays a lot in the slot.
I'll bet Moss will become Griffin safety blanket.

I think Hankerson is a talented receiver but he's a 2nd year receiver coming off a major injury, he's still adjusting to the league and to the offense.
Garcon, Morgan, Moss, Davis, Gaffney are all pro's that either know the scheme or have already earned there stripes as NFL WRs.
Hankerson is gonna have an uphill battle for reps and playing time.
There's gonna be stiff competition in the WRs corps at training camp.

I would rather have a bunch of 800 yard receivers anyway then one 1,000 yard receiver, unless of course you gave me a Fitzgerald, Johnson, or well Johnson. Almost always better in theory when the opposing defense has to spread out and cover everyone rather then keying in on one guy. A lot like the setup the Packers have going right now.

Also in regards to developing QB's sometimes have a true number 1 can stunt a guys development (a la Culpepper) or allow him to break out (a la Schuab and for now Stafford).
