Draft Preview: Studs highlight third-year receivers: "The trend of third-year wide receivers who have breakout seasons has been legitimized throughout NFL history. Michael Fabiano takes a look at what is a talented list of wideouts who can make an impact."
Great article about this years 3rd year receivers, Very similar to another article that suggested Andre Johnson being the big impact receiver for this year. Of note
The presence of WRs Torry Holt and Isaac Bruce will limit his statistical success, but Curtis proved last postseason that he can be a solid option in the pass attack. He posted 11 receptions for 235 yards and one touchdown in games against Seattle and Atlanta, showcasing the hands and fifth-gear speed that makes him a favorite of head coach Mike Martz. Look for the Rams to utilize Curtis much like the Colts use WR Brandon Stokley in the slot
I know of a couple guys that had Curtis last year in those 2 games mentioned and then proceeded to keep playing him week in and week out where he never matched that output. Don't fall in love with a player just because he has a couple good games. Case in point take a look at Dallas Clark, his last 5 games were not notable after everyone grabbed him after his 102 yard 2 TD performance against Houston, his previous best game was 88 yards 2 weeks before that. He was Peyton's 5 option on that offense, take note of that kind of stuff before you lock a guy into a roster spot.
