Need Help... Is Wallace >>> B. Marshall was?

[sirvmac]

Would appreciate some input.

Nope not even close. Wallace is a cookie cutter WR. He is physically incapable of 80% of the things a #1 WR is supposed to do.
Marshall has the tools of a true #1, but he just has mental/consistency/hands issues.
Wallace will always be stuck in what he can do.
Pittsburgh played it how it should be played. Draft a guy like Wallace, he over-exceeds his draft position, take advantage of his rookie contact, and then let him walk to another chump team that will overpay for him.
Meanwhile Pitt has already drafted his replacement and they won't miss Wallace.
And then we will be stuck with an ''at best #2'' WR for damn near 60 mil or whatever the crazy rumor is.
Signing Wallace or Jennings will drive us further down the path of mediocrity.

80% huh? I think you're dis-crediting what Wallace is capable of by about the same %....

Brandon Marshall is way better

[nyjunc]

different types of players, Marshall is a great possession guy, Wallace is a playmaker BUT keep in mind he played w/ a great QB and a ton of weapons in Pitt to take presssure off. In Miami he'd be far and away their best weapon. Can he handle that? I think so but we'll see.

To address one thing you said, I think we would have made the playoffs with Marshall last year. He would have opened up so much for Hartline and Bush and he would have made Tannehill's life much easier, specifically in the red zone where we sucked. I am still completely at a loss for why he was dumped like that, I've yet to hear a satisfactory explanation.... And no, "he's not a Joe Philbin guy" is not a good enough explanation
If Brandon Marshall is not a Joe Philbin guy but Brian Hartline is, then Joe Philbin hates touchdowns and sucks at coach.

i think BM will start his BS next year with the bears and they will prob send him packing the ollowing year .unless he some how turns into a grown man

Peoppe need to get over this wallace is limited nonsense, he's not limited anymore.

On top of that Marshall couldn't dream of stretching the defense the way wallace does. Moss is plenty limited, but what he did was make everything easier for everyone else, while still being productive, thats a rare ability.

I'd take Wallace every time. They are on opposite sides of the spectrum as to what kind of receivers they are. But Marshall has serious, serious character concerns that are detrimental to his value to a team. I don't like his game much either and the constant attention in targets he seems to require along with frequent lapses in concentration. Wallace has that rare gamebreaking ability that completely changes an offense and he's not a ****ing lunatic so he definitely has the edge in this comparison.

Anyways you do know Pittsburgh offered Wallace a big contract right? Looking at your post I can bet you didn't.

Greg Jennings> Both

Please explain. I don't see how you can say Jennings > both statistically. Jennings has been hurt the past few years. Do you think character is that big a differential?
