With all this talk about WR.

[AceBoogie]

if gettis had TD's heart he'd be all pro.

It makes me sick for you people to sit at home on your couch and have the audacity to question another man's heart. How many training camps did you attend this past season? If you would have been in attendance you would have noticed a young man named David Gettis working out on that sideline everyday with a trainer trying to get back.

[DaCityKats]

i would have loved to see him(12) on the field, but it didnt happen.why keep waiting, this position needs to be upgraded asap.

[carolina-chuck]

89, yes

11+12, hell no

Gettis is done. And Lafail is a good no.3. Nothing more. Keep on dreamin

[rayzor]

time to move on from that dream and start looking at more serious solutions to improving a weak WR unit focused on a middle aged player in the last couple years of his career and whom should be expected to miss time.

[Happy Panther]

Maybe Gettis is done but how would we know? I don't trust Rivera's doghouse judgment yet.

[rayzor]

you'd think that more people would be excited about finally having a GM with a great eye for talent and who knows how important it is to build your WR corps.

we don't have to sit around and dream about which long shot late pick WR is going to rise up anymore.

Yeah, that's the word on the street, but I won't actually believe it until I see it. So many years of disappointments...A fan's gotta do something to keep his sanity.

This.

We need #1 and #2 to be sure playmakers. Can someone else step up: great.

[poorboysrev]

I think if Gettis does something at this point it's a good surprise, not something you count on. Like with T Davis this year. Great that it happened but we had guys in place if it didn't. If we take a WR high and then Gettis starts blowing up then that's a good thing. I'm tired of us being like Houston. Since they have Andre Johnson and a strong running game they think that's enough and it's not. We have made that same mistake for almost a decade. Steve, another legit #1 WR, Lafell and BIG IF Gettis. Then when Steve quits you still have 3 quality WR's.. Who knows if he's healthy and producing Gettis might overtake Lafell. Or we cut him in training camp and we still have Steve, high pick, and Lafell. Either way problem is addressed. It's like taking Kuechly even though we all love Beason, it was still the right move. And Gettis is much more of a question mark

[AceMan]

Just don't see Gettis in the plans with Rivera as HC...

every year I have a conversation with my father about how promising the next year looks. Until I see results, the new shiny toy shouldn't get rewarded with praise until he earns it.

[C47]

While I think Gettis and LaFell can both be solid number two WRS, this team needs a new number one....

[Cary Kollins]

Not sure how we can completely write off Gettis. Like someone said earlier, if he was really done wouldn't he be cut like Hogan?

Maybe Rivera didn't want to push him too hard in last years meaningless second half of the season.

That said, I am all for acquiring another WR either through the draft or FA.

not so much writing him off as much as just being smart enough to know he can't be counted on. we have to move beyond the gettis dream. if he works out, great. we just have to act like he won't and we have to act as if smith is going to miss significant time due to injury or retiring.
