I drafted darrell jackson as my 2nd wr---- I like what you wrote and the injury does concern me a bit, but he looked great when he came back last year

what do the rest of you guys think about him this year???

I also have hasselbeck as my qb so I hope to get a nice return from the two of these guys for my draft picks

Good call on Travis Taylor being a sleeper. He's been asleep since the day the Ravens drafted him back in 2000.

you marked reche caldwell RED. what has he ever done in his career to make you think he will do anything? yes thats my biggest gripe about the wr's. Ernest wilford should be higher, he will be the best wr in jax. guarenteed.

Well he is ranked 55 on his list which means in a ten team league, he will more than likely be on the WW. In a 12 teamer, he will be there late in the draft, and in an even deeper league, he is worth picking late.

Also, I don't think Wilford will out produce Jones.

Thanks for the "notice". I meant for that to be Hank Basket, not Taylor. Corrected.

Well, he is the No. 1 WR IN CAMP, so if the holdout continues, he has value early in the season. And he's as good as any other No. 2 possibility in NE. And regarding his past -- no No. 2 or 3 WR in SD would look good, since he's effectively a No. 3 or 4 with Gates there, so that's not a good gauge (to me) of his ability. Like Shaun said, he's not a guy to bank on, but in a deep league, he could pay early dividends to fill a hole.

There are no guarantees in Jacksonville.
