eventualchamps Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 I think Josh Reed's rookie season as our #3 slot receiver represents about the maximum we will get out of a rookie in that position. A key to some very good production from Trrd that year (37 or so catches for 500+ yards) was that he had the athletic Moulds and the speedy Peerless as our #1 and #2 WRs. That combo allowed Reed to feast on LBs and #4 or #5 DBs. He did so to the tune that we were comfortable letting Peerless go and moving Reed to the #2 slot where the pressure and responsibility seemed to lead to a bad case of the droppsies on his part. Even if one judges Parrish to be a better player than Reed, the first choice for JP/TC by far is going to be Moulds and the second choice by far is going to be Evans and the Parrish numbers are going to be held down to picking up the leftovers. 331713[/snapback] My one cent: I agree that being a #3 WR means your most likely not going to get a lot of balls thrown your way. However, they way the question is phrased is "who do you think will have the most impact" makes me look at it from a different perspective. I think Parrish (who will start over Reed) is going to have a very big impact and open the field even more for Moulds and Evans. He may not have a huge year himself, but take a look at our total receiving yards and I think they will be increased (even with "rookie" JP at the helm).
