They have gigantic talent issues all over the place offensively. I think you're right. Trading Winslow pretty much signaled the start of "rebuilding" mode by Mangenous.

Major issues at WR opposite Edwards (who has issues of his own) and a starting RB in serious decline. Not to mention major questions at QB.

It's hard to look at the Browns and have any sense of confidence. Even if Edwards wasn't dealing with issues of his own, I'd be suspect of pursuing him. But when you factor in how bad he was last season, it makes him someone I'm likely going to continue to avoid this year.

I think Steve Smith is too high.

I think Chad Johnson and Housh both make the top 15 this season.

I'm a HUGE Steve Smith fan. Love the guy as a football player. He was fourth in the NFFC in average points per game among WRs last season despite the fact he missed two games, Delhomme played awful much of the time and Williams scored an insane amount of touchdowns. I could see Smith finishing Top 3 among WRs if he plays 16 games and Delhomme plays even decently most of the time.

Big Steve Smith fan here.

Drop Marshall, add TJ, and you've already made the case, Tom. Two words, Kyle Orton. Could very well be the same scenario in Buffalo with Trent Edwards and the weather in Dec. Drop TO, add Roy Williams. How ironic is that?

I'm not big on Roy Williams. He's been very unimpressive for years and the Cowboys have some issues at WR so I'm not sure there's enough talent there to take pressure off him even if he does play well. He's a guy going higher than I'd draft him at the moment.

I agree Orton's presence has me scared spitless when it comes to Marshall (and Royal). I think it's a major roll of the dice to gamble on either of those guys. I've already done it in one draft already with Marshall but I'm not feeling very good about it.

Tom i agree with you about Roy Williams.He did nothing with the Boys last year and everyone is assuming that he will be the number one reciever on that team and im not buying it till i see something in preseason so i wont be taking Williams in any early drafts especially in the 4th round,crazy.
With T O gone i think Witten will be the number guy again this year with out T O screaming for the ball every play.Witten will be a monster with plenty of catches.

He sure doesn't look like a No. 1 WR to me, Eddie. I think we see a dramatic transformation in the Cowboys this season. I expect them to be more of a ball-control team which runs a lot using Barber and Jones (and Choice). I think Witten will be the primary option in the passing game with Jones being used perhaps in a Reggie Bush-type role as a hybrid RB/WR to take advantage of his big-play skills and the glaring lack of talent the team now has in the passing game.

Roy is toast.

Carolina could have 600 rushes this season. :0

TO will be 10-12 WR range.

Olsen will be top 3 TE.

That is all.
