Gil - I love these sessions - very interesting, very informative. My question is, which of the rookie WRs will have the greatest impact in their first season? Which team's system is the best for grooming WRs?

Thanks, Bob. I think the WR that has the chance to make the biggest impact is Brian Robiskie, the 36th player taken in Round 2 by the Cleveland Browns. Robiskie has been around the pro game for years, since his dad is a long-time NFL coach. And Brian is a pretty good player in his own right.

(this is very hard for me. But here it goes)
Great! Now we have the best receiver in the draft. Looks like things are working out perfectly.
(... wow...that wasn't so bad,,,,)

Yeah the STO browns report said Robiskie was looking very good.
Now all we need is Hubbard to beat out Royal and Heiden. I think he can be really good. Loosing Kellen is gonna hurt us alot. The reason why our recievers were open in the slants, posts, and ins was due to Kellen taking up at least 1 lb and a safety. Hopefully hubbard can do well early and draw some coverage, that way Robiskie and Edwards can really light it up

I was actually trying to making fun of myself.
No harm meant.

I have little doubt that robo was the best WR selection in the draft and will impact our passing game immediately regardless of who is under center as for handless hubbard or slippery fingers sanders..both these guys have every possible tool except the one they need the most...hands..
