Huh? Have you been watching the Saints? They need DEFENSE. The saints got plenty of offensive weapons. I would love to see him go late first to early second round. Plenty of teams looking for a good clutch reciever.
Both he & Buster are 2nd - 3rd round guys. If this were a weaker year, one of them might be able to sneak into the first round but there are just too many talented WRs in this class. I think both will really increase their draft stock in the combines. People don't realize how strong Bowe is, and now LSU fans are starting to see how fast Buster is.
Buster is very consistent, but NFL teams will be more impressed with Bowe's size and strength. They won't be first round judging by the other receivers that will probably be in the draft (Jarrett, Calvin Johnson, the ND WR, and even Teddy Ginn)
The beauty of it all is that for every "he's not big enough" ..."he's not fast enough"..."he's not experienced enough", you end up with a Wayne Crebet, Eric Martin and a Colston.
Those guys were/are good, but the NFL drools over the Calvin Johson, Randy Moss, Teddy Ginn, Braylon Edwards, and Matt Jones type of recievers. Big, physical and fast... Besides, Colston was taken in the 7th round. The fact is that you never know. Joe Horn was drafted by the Chiefs in the 5th round and rarely got to play. Look at him now. Same goes for Tom Brady and T.J. Houshmandzadeh who were taken in the 6th and 7th rounds. I sure wish Michael Clayton would produce a little more, but I can imagine how frustrating it is to have the QBs he does...
I think Colston was the 3rd to last pick, who would have thought that this kid from Hofstra would be so important to a team his first year in the NFL.:dis:
