wut do u guys think? u all think next year is going to be taylor jacobs nd darnerian mcCants break out season.....i really like both of them.....jacobs has exceptional speed nd great hands i really dont see why he cant be at least a number 3 guy.....i also really liek mcCants......he is the big target that gibbs wanted......nd he has pretty good hands....the downside with him is that he doesnt have a good work ethic.........what do u guys think?

I think Gibbs has a bunch of recievers, one or two of whom will step up and have a good year. I think Jacobs probably has a better chance, because he will be active game days since he plays special teams. McCants' lack of playing time is frustrating because he has the size and the hands be a big part of the offense, especially in the redzone.

I had a dream a few weeks ago that DMac started wearing 81 and became 81 on the field. Dreams aside, I think McCants biggest downside is his inability or unwillingness to play special teams. I like Jacobs and think he can be a very good WR.

We haven't seen much from Jacobs and McCants and Gibbs hasn't given me much of a reason to think we will see that much more next year. I think Patten was underrated with the Pats and is going to have a good year with a larger role. Moss has proven he can get into the end zone... something we didn't see from Coles. Thrash is steady but unexciting.

I don't know, Gibbs gave Jacobs a good amount of playing time in the last game. He talks highly of him.

Jacobs is my pick for a surprise/breakout player for 2005

funny stuff man. . . .

We can't just dismiss the fact that Mccants seem to be in the doghouse the entire year? whats the deal? Why was he benched for so much of the year? I think Jacobs has potential, he has had bad luck with injury, I think he will contribute this year...but I really think Moss and Patten are going to productive...

i agree with tafkas and matty, but just a side note...

this topic has been posted before many times...for future reference for the new people to the board, please search back through old threads to see if you might happen to be repeating what has already been said. i feel like we're beating a dead horse here...just my two cents.

I think that Ramsey's development will help our receivers look better next season. We have the speed to get open and enough talent to wreck havoc is Gibbs will open up the game.

I agree that he has the potential, but I dont see him getting the opportunity. He will be spot played most of the year I think. The WR competition is going to be intense this preseason. Basically every slot is up for grabs

Daseal · 04-05-2005, 02:17 AM

I disagree, Skins. I see Jacobs becoming our #2. He's fast as hell, and has great hands. Gibbs has had nothing but praise for the guy, I really want to see what he can do, I doubt I'm alone. Right now we don't have any standout receivers to take his place.

Dead Horse Walking! I also agree with Tafkas & Matty.

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-05-2005, 09:54 AM

I defnitely think Jacobs has promise. He's definitely not a bruiser, but he IS fast as hell as Daseal said.

PSUSkinsFan21 · 04-05-2005, 10:33 AM

I like Jacobs for a big year. WRs frequently break out in their third year, and I like what I've seen/heard about him so far. I see McCants as a decent red zone threat, but probably not much else. Patten can stretch the field well. I guess my biggest issue with our WRs is I don't see a reliable 3rd down, go-to, possession receiver. Outside of McCants, we don't have anyone over 6 foot, 200 lbs.
