However, if that's what you want to go with, that just further emphasizes my point about how much influence Simmons has over these bubble WR's.  Who do you think he's gonna push to keep, the guy that led the AFC in KR average or the guy they couldn't dress last year because he wasn't good enough at ST's?

According to Hobson, it sounds like they will try to do whatever they can to keep seven WRs because they are high on both Core and Erickson.

The coaches absolutely love Josh Malone and I think everyone in their room thought he’d be gone in the second round. But he just turned 21 and the sense is he’s viewed as a guy that’s going to need a year to develop and will probably be inactive for most games. So LaFell and Malone are going nowhere and they also covet Cody Core and Alex Erickson, so the sense is that tough cut may be elsewhere. But that’s a long way off.
