He had 15 TDs a year ago. I'd say he's a pretty big play guy.

redzone threat =/= big play receiver, but i agree. He can make things happen. Osprey kinda makes him sound like BMW. Which would be about right, if williams was faster, more agile and had no weight problems

I guess you're right, but I could have referenced his over 1000 yards 3 of the last 4 years.

Not a big play guy, in the way that I meant. I meant, he's not a gamebreaker who's gonna run away from defenders or outjump them for big gains. Bowe had a ton of TD's on short to mid range passes. |

No, not at all. He's much better than BMW. I would compare Bowe more to Brandon Marshall. |

He's not a Steve Smith, Wallace, or DeSean Jackson but I think Baldwin may be able to develop more into that type so I'd be very happy with Bowe.

I just see more all around potential, in a rookie like Keenan Allen. I'm really excited to see his progression with Cal, this coming season. He lit it up last year, despite erratic QB play. |
