Houshmazadeh going into his 3rd year was "active" and "played" in 28 games to ross only being "active" for 16 games, while not doing anything. housh also had "62" receptions to ross's 21 lol and had 700 plus yards to ross 221 lol...He had tripled his reception amount and almost nearly quadrupled his receiving yards amount lol couple all that with the fact that housh was drafted in the 7th damn round and we are still sitting around waiting for our soft injury prone 9th overall pick who lacks confidence. housh has never lacked confidence even at oregon state me being a pac 12 guy/pac 10 at the time.  he always thought he was better than chad and that attitude wasnt predicated on his production.  housh had atleast showed potential and promise before a hamstring plagued his 3rd season and housh also didnt come into the league with injury concerns where as ross did and ross's injury problems have continue to follow him.  Ross has trade value still becuase of where he was drafted.  i dont see why we should wait around on a wish and prayer in ross when we could probably land a linebacker for him.  let him be someone else's problem.  if u think this kid is gonna be an antonio brown tyreke hill etc your in lala land and u need to share what ur smoking.  trade him and nab a linebacker imo while the value is still there... another piss poor injury plagued year from ross and his stock is in the toilet across the league.

I'm sorry, but you started this about his (Ross) injuries, right?  He plays "small and soft"?  He can't stay healthy (because he missed most of his rookie season (as did Kirkpatrick, Dennard, WJII, and Jonah Williams...all first rounders) and now because they are holding him out because of a tight hamstring.  

And Housh "showed potential and promise" with 62 receptions in his first two seasons with just one TD?  Give me a break.  All Ross would have to do to equal that production over the first three years is catch a measly 41 balls, and no additional TDs and he would still have 6 more TDs than Housh.

You also state numerous times that your frustration seems to be because Ross was the #9 overall pick and has no production commensurate with that high a selection.  I get it, but look at Jonah this year...not a single snap in a game.  And he was #11 overall.  Injuries happen.  It doesn't mean you give up on the guy.  And just because they are being cautious with a tight hamstring at the very beginning of camp doesn't make him injury prone.  

You can dislike the guy all you want, but your hatred towards him is misplaced.  I think ZT will show that Ross is capable of much more than he was allowed to do last year.
