Are we keeping only 5? WIll it be moss are lloyd patten thrash? Do we get six? Lets just put the top three aside. That leaves 2-3 spots for 4 guys, espy, thrash, farris, and patten. I say we keep three and let farris and espy fight for it to the death. Patten gonna make this team? i think so but i like both espy and farris. I have a problem with attachment with our WRs. I still would like antonio brown to come back. Whats up with my boi by the way?

To me, Jimmy Farris isn't that far from Taylor Jacobs. He had his chance last season too, when Patten and Thrash went down. If Espy continues to make noise, I think he edges out Farris. For whatever reason, there's a "groupie" mentality for certain players who are on the bubble trying to make the team every preseason and it always seems to be wide receivers. Remember Justin Skaggs? A year or so later it was Cliff Russell, now Jimmy Farris appears to be the new golden boy. I don't get it.

So, I think it'll be Patten at #4, and Thrash at the 5th wideout spot. Problem is, not all 5 WRs will be active for every game. I figure Thrash will wind up getting more playing time throughout the year for his special teams play. Espy will be on the practice squad.
