Bobby Engram will miss the next 6-8 weeks after cracking a bone in his shoulder during Seattle’s preseason opener.

Yikes, hadn't heard that.  They are getting really thin at WR…

Not exactly thin but they are giving their younger guys a chance to get some game time in which I’m excited about. Still wish they could have sucked it up and kept Hackett

Last time he was asked to be the #1, he failed miserably in Minnesota.  Maybe he has come along since then, maybe not - but I don't think it's a slam dunk he pulls down 80 catches.

Yeah, I think Burleson would be a solid #3 in fantasy terms. He did struggle as the #1 in Minny but he can do 75/1000/8 this year.

Nate's line will be 82, 1150 and 10. He wont field returns this year due to more pressing needs in the mainstream game but this won't matter much as he will have a career year. He is a red zone threat and a legit 1 in this offence. And their running game is sketchy which only heightens the effect.

When he caught the 68 passes (2004), he wasn't a rookie… and he was playing across from Moss, which was my point.  The following year Moss was traded to Oakland, leaving Burleson as the #1.  Nate proceeded to catch 30.  Not saying it will happen again, just that he may be one of those guys who isn't cut to be a #1.
