Peter Warrick
David Terrell
Charles Rogers
(Det) Mike Williams
Troy Williamson
Ted Ginn
Darius Haywrd-Bey
Reggie Williams
Justin Blackmon

All these guys had some Watkins-type label to them. Det needs to shore other areas up, not dream of this unstoppable O. The QB is more responsible for an unstoppable O than great WRs and Stafford isnt Manning.
Are just just talking out your Ass? Blackmon is a top 10 wr that likes to drink and do drugs -he doesn't really belong on your list of underachievers

Youre nuttier than squirrel sh*t homey - even IF its bc drug/drink, Blackmon is a dud....but hes been a scrub thus far. Get off his wood. He may never play in NFL again. Gar-bajjjjjjj

Those other wrs you listed did not ever go up and snatch the ball out of the air like Watkins. Yes he had inflated stats in that offense and those quick little option passes but his burst once he had the ball is impressive and again he goes and snatched the ball at its highest point and comparing his ball skills to any of those bums you listed is comical. Far as Blackmon If he would learn to pass a drug test he be a very good wr, but doesn't have the burst of Watkins IMO..

What I am saying sire is that guys liks Warrick and Terrll and Charles Rogers were soooo ballyhooed coming out of school like Mr. Watkins is. They were seen as cant-miss guys but they didnt really work out that well. So they once werent bums. But i see a lot of Larry Fitzgerald in Sw except SW faster. But Det wont get him; he may be gone at 3-4 (Jax/Cle)

Never liked Bradford, but on flip side rams havnt exactly given him weapons.. D will be big time especially w Williams back as d-cord. They need a wr on the outside that can catch tho, doubt britt is the answer, or the kid they reached on from east bumfuk st 2 years ago that still can't run a route, givens regressed. Don't think fisher generally goes oline early, my guess they trade back cause I doubt they take Watkins there cause besides trading out and getting all skins picks for rg3 they rarely do what I want them too!!! Lol

give stafford more targets - so waste a 1st round pick in an area where they have no weakness.
calvin johnson, golden tate are your 1/2 wideouts, and lets waste a 1st round pick on a skill position.

lose games 37-34 again...

how can detroits defense "show up" if you dont have the personnel?

if lions fans want to have the sexy offense that can put up points and be exciting on offense, then go after watkins/evans.

if lion fans want to start actually winning games, and be a serious contended, get some defensive studs...
take an o-lineman in round 1 if you have to take an "offensive" player.

taking skill position players in round 1 other then a cant miss QB, is dumb imo
