cam ward's leading receiver ran a 4.89

So much overreaction for what I think is true as well. X was a great college receiver. He doesn't have the athletic profile pro teams look for. You guys can spit out some aberrations, but for the most part, WRs who don't have the bare minimum of athletic traits don't make it. The same line of thinking can apply to positions as a whole as well. To me, running backs have so much more value in the college game. An elite talent can make a difference. In the NFL, an UFA can make just as big an impact as a highly drafted RB. (LOL at TWO Notre Dame RBs going in the first round.)

To sum it up, I agree OP. Cam Ward doing what he did without a top-end talent like a Jeremiah Smith (who makes Sayin look good when I honestly think he isn't) was special. X was a great college receiver, but doesn't have the athletic make-up to have the same impact in the league. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate his time at the U.
