    How could Brad Childress who is highly regarded as an offensive mind, have this guy and then basically say that McMullen is better and trade for him?
    He may be a practice superstar, hopefully it will translate to real game ability. I wonder if he had a bad showing at the combine.

    Either way, weird stuff happens sometimes and good players are not put in positions where they can shine so I hope this works out that way. We really need something like this

      I think Childress probably wanted someone around who could help him teach his other wr's the offense...how many players did Reid bring in for 2 or 3 years to help in that regard.

      Childress may believe in McMullen, but my guess is that the benefit of having a guy around who understands his x's and o's will be a greater benefit than a rookie fa who is/was a long shot.

      That said...Baskett seems at this point to be twice the reciever McMullen ever was!
