    I see your point, maybe you are right. I'm not adverse to drafting a player who we see primarily as a punt / kick returner and having a slot on the squad almost solely for that purpose. that position has value if you keep them fresh and have a difference maker, as Hester proves.

    After the hester experiment, I'm not as fixated as much on what a WR can do after the ball. I'm more concentrating on one that always gets the ball.
