Doctson has seemed like our best option for a while, for many of the reasons stated.

As an aside, what does Treadwell show that Mike Thomas doesn't? I've been curious why he is rarely mentioned in the same breath, and it's not Treadwell's measurables...

Michael Thomas has never reached 800 receiving yards nor double digit TDs in a season. Treadwell has reached 1000+ yards and double-digit TDs this past season. So there's a little bit of worry that Thomas' talent will stay as potential and not result in production down the road.

Granted, the fact that OSU has a run-first offense and tries to spread the ball around in the passing game, it still can make people wonder why he wasn't able to hit those milestones if he was so good to be considered a first round pick. Plus, OSU hasn't really produced great NFL WRs in awhile (none since Meyer came on since verdict is still out on Devin Smith).

As a comparison, both OBJ and Landry reached 1000+ yards and double-digit TDs their final year at LSU. And Landry was selected at the end of the second round in the 2014 draft. Granted, that was a stacked WR class so Landry probably would be around an early second round pick if he were in this year's class, but still.

Does Michael Thomas look to be as good as Jarvis Landry? I'm not sure.
