Re: Biggest 2008 Rams Draft Lie
I'm going with the Avery line simply because of the zealous nature it's supporters have held. Several fans have repeated this line with all of the standard sophmoric suffixal stamps........."Period"......."Nuff Said"......"End of Story".

I'm amazed that anyone would attach such certainty to an aspect of this wide receiver class when reality was so far removed from the general pre-draft assumptions.

No less than 10 receivers gone before the Rams 3rd.
Reports of 8 to 10 teams that had Avery atop their WR board.
Offenses specialized to the point that no general ranking of wideouts is relevant.

Yet so many opinions holding dear to the idea that Avery WOULD HAVE been there in the 3rd. Amazing.
