    Hakeem Nicks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWakmo3_m2s&NR=1 if available provides that playmaking ability every down. His hands are sick (man catches everything), his route running is great, and makes the play! Very physical receiver that does not shy away from contact, actually welcomes it. Titans could benefit from his athleticism. His is not afraid to go over the middle and catch the ball. The only negative I see with him is probably his speed, not the fastest guy at receiver but all those other factors make up for it. He's not a burner, but a bruiser. I like the kid.

    On the other side of that but very similar in style is Kenny Britt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a98USWn8dG0&feature=related. Kenny is much like Nicks but has deceptive speed. Keeps his feet going after the first hit. Catches the ball very well. I like his determination after the catch to get more yards. He would be a good possession receiver for the Titans to pick up.

    Darrius Heyward-Bey http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyjaBWuo4zA&feature=related reminds me alot like C.J. He is a speed burner. Dangerous in the open field. Goes up for the ball, concentrates on the ball in traffic, and catches really well. Similar to Chris Johnson, all this man needs is a screen pass and a little opening and he is gone.

    Derrick Williams http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8RKJEXBhCw&feature=related hmmmm...Derrick Mason anyone??? Maybe not, but he has versatility written all over him. My friend said that since he didn't play one solid position in college that in the NFL it would not translate to a successful career, or it will be hard for him to succeed rather. He has speed, catches well, and knows how to make would be tacklers miss. One on one coverage is what the guy wants. Could be very valuable on Special Teams returning kickoffs and punts.

    Jeremy Maclin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA619-10IIM&feature=channel_page is a beast. His speed is dangerous. Now this guy is a playmaker, much like C.J. he is patient waiting on his blockers to open holes and he turns on the afterburners. This guy is a touchdown waiting to happen.

    Um...

    We covered these guys and a LOT more in this thread...

    http://www.gotitans.com/goForum/showthread.php?t=45560

    Of your guys, Maclin is definitely long gone. But if you like the others, check out my post at the bottom of the first page on the other thread and watch the highlight reel. It's better than the others...

    But lots of other players at different positions too!

    Hey...

    By the way, virtually every pass pattern Maclin runs in this vid that isn't a bubble screen...is either a cross, slant or post.

    still can't believe that summabeetch didn't go back in the game against the Ravens. If it isn't broke, you better get back in the game.

    I couldn't resist.

    It's about as obvious as JMac sucks.
