    I'm hoping Dunn makes such an impact that he sticks but he will have to show he could be a WR & a PR IMO. I think Brown is the end or prolonging of Burress's career. He is the big body WR and if he could show he knows how to use it at this level through the preseason, it could be the end here for Burress. I'm a PSU fan and saw Brown play. He will give them that WR who could play ST and if he could show his return abilities along with his "niche" at WR...I see it very difficult to pass on him over Burress for 2013. Burress is only a "niche" WR at this point in his career so he can easily be overcome on the depth chart. Moye would be another "niche" type of WR but Brown was just more of a physical player and I think he could play ST coverage where Moye never showed me that physical abilty to do so. But hey...A Paycheck can change a person!

    Situation is really interesting. If it Ends up being A Brown, Sanders, Cotchery, Wheaton, & Burress...To me that hands the return job to Howling. Which I am ok with...Howling has been productive. Looks good on paper for 2013 but a little of a concern for 2014. I assume at least one of Cotchery-Burress will be here for 2013 in any scenario. To me...A Brown, Sanders, Cotchery/Burress, Wheaton, J Brown, & Dunn (If he can show WR ability) mean the scouting department came through and the future looks good at WR even if Sanders leaves after 2013. Worst case for 2014...A Brown, Wheaton, J Brown, & Dunn remain while Sanders & Cotchery/Buress will be gone. That would be pretty good headed into the 2014 draft.

    That is all speculation at this point. Lets first see if J Brown & Dunn can even play the game at this level. Right now my pick on 53 is...A Brown, Sanders, Cotchery, Wheaton, & Burress with Howling as the returner which is pretty solid. Hoping J Brown shows enough ability to push Burress off or make the PS would be "icing". Dunn making such an impact that he sticks on the 53 would be the ice cream.
