Also, Core ran rounded, sloppy routes in college. It appears he has cleaned this up big time. Urban is a good coach, i believe
he could coach both these guys into something special. Core right now is ahead of Malone and i don't know how anyone could
argue otherwise. Core is going nowhere, we will most likely carry 7 receivers and Malone might not dress at times during the
season. Lafell or Erickson are the most likely to go if we keep 6 IMHO.

I'm thinking to myself if it's between keeping Core and Erickson (if they only want to go with 6), they might (IMO should) keep Erickson because of his dependable production as a returner, and relegate Core to the PS.  I'm still not sold that Core would be plucked off the PS if they put him there, but other teams sure have some tape on him from the last game of last year.  I'm hoping that maybe Wilson can become a great return man (with Mixon thrown in to ease the burden), so that Erickson can get traded (if Core actually shows that he's worth keeping).  Either way, I'm leaning towards Core being the 7th man right now, but hope he proves me wrong big time!  Even though I'm not sold on Core yet, I do think given one more year of development, he could become a solid 3rd receiver next year.  No matter what, it's going to be a bummer if we have to lose one of the receivers to another team (unless a trade upgrades a weaker spot on the team).  In case of injuries, I'm happy about the receiver depth on the team.
