Yeah hindsight is 20/20 and admittedly I didn't know much about Wilson at draft time, but then again I'm not paid to scout and draft players for a team that desperately needs a QB. Oh well I guess at least we got Donald Stephenson from OU.........yay..... [Reply]

He was not good against Buffalo.
Not at all.
His fans are clinging to one game at this moment.
One. Game.
If he's out for the year, mark him down as a bust. Enough. [Reply]
Didn't he have a pretty decent YPC as a RB last year too, and also has made some big plays returning kicks? I was mentally checked out most of last year. I really don't think he's a bad player at all. [Reply]

As a WR Tate has been better because that is all he does. As a football player whose, get this, job it is to get yards and move the chains Dexter has been better.
I love the scrambling that it is somehow implied he ment "as a WR" when he said Tate was better because that is the only way to save face. :-)
The funniest thing about all of this is that McCluster, in his first year as a "true" WR has more catches and more yards than Tate, even with that phony TD yesterday. All Tate has on Dex is the one actual TD. [Reply]

I'm not a fan really, but I don't think he's bad like you do. I don't think we can label him a pure bust if he's out for the year either. He's still young. Not a great player and not who I wanted with that 2nd round pick, but he has his moments. [Reply]

Well, he doesn't play RB anymore.
So it's kind of relevant.
He needs to do WR things, not RB things.
If you can't honestly see the difference...you're being obtuse. [Reply]
