His first gig was supposed to be Tampa but they signed Vincent Jackson. Other than height, this is the perfect fit.

 

If Easley's better than him, then we have Manningham play the slot! Wow, this is exciting stuff!

 

Uh.. so where does that leave David Nelson? One of our best receivers?

I like Manningham, but at 5'11" 178 lbs he's not quite the big physical receiver that can make plays and "get open even when he's not open", right?

Bottom line...the Bills need playmakers. He may not have the skill set that Meachem has and the Bills desire, but they need guys who can step in and play come September. Not a bunch of guys who are better suited for WR 4-5-6, or a draft choice that may take several years to develop.

Exactly. Size would be nice but we have size. All we need from the #2 is a guy that can stretch the field a little and make some plays so the defense has to watch and sometimes worry about him. I'm not a huge Manningham fan but he fits that bill. We don't even need the #2 to put up big #2 numbers, we just need a guy that can be a reliable option so the defense has to worry about Stevie, #2, Nelson, Chandler, Freddy, and Spiller and Brad Smith thrown in. Easley could also be our big guy. Manningham would be fine.
