Broyld, West, Funderburk - starters

Estime, Clark, AC, Kobena - rotation

Gives you 6/3 221, 6/2 203, and 6/2 201 at WR which is good size and blockers.

What I don't want to see is Estime or Clark blocking for Broyld on a bubble.
 
AC blocks better than all of them. Broyld tries but is not very effective.

Cornelius, Broyld and Estime are our best receivers. BTW they should just stop throwing that bubble screen to Broyld.
 
Some of you are awfully dismissive of a two year starter. If West is healthy, he is going to start.

The debate is between Estime, AC, and Fundeburk. I vote Funderburk because he is probably the best hope for an impact WR next year and I want to see next years offense on the field as much as possible. To me you spot Estime. He's a package slot guy and the 4th guy in 4 wide. AC backs up both WR spots and gets plenty of snaps. The odd man out may be Kobena.
 
I wish the DB's had to honor the WR position so that the bubble screen could actually work..
 
We give West too much flak in my opinion. He's proven that he can get open, Hunt just never hits him.

I must say, I always keep an eye on the WRs while at the games so you can see the whole field, and I am just not impressed with West. I think we're better off with AC.
 
I would like to see them all out there at one time and run the Steelers end-of-game play (without the stepping out of bounds part).
 
Funderburk has 2 catches this year. You really think he starts over Cornelius, Broyld, West, Or Estime? I don't.

Here is what I know. Rahme told me if there had been no change in the coaching staff he would have started on opening day. Based on Shafer's statements the reason he wasn't on the field had nothing to do with his ability to play the position.

And I didn't say he would start over Broyld or West.

I've always been a skeptic of West's game. He's a complimentary WR, not a real threat or #1 target. Not the worst thing to have on your roster, but you'll only get so much out of the guy. I think Cornelius has a brighter future, and he might even be a better 1 or 2 option than West is right now.
 
West is a solid #2 guy and will go up to catch the ball in traffic. More than I can say than the board chosen one Broyld. At least West has a set. He should be running routes more towards the middle of the field. He gets way to much shiTE here.

Cornelius and West have made great highlight-reel catches this year. Play them, and also Funderburke for reasons that others have stated. I'd rather see Estime get those short swing passes and screens - he's much more explosive than Broyld. Seeing Broyld take those passes and start lumbering down the field has not impressed me this year.

With Funderburk on the field West is not the #1 guy. He has the role he had last year, when he was just under 50 catches and 600 yds.

I think AC is going to be an important player now and in the future.

I think that's a big assumption.
 
AC needs to and has to start because he has been playing the best. West is a solid WR believe he'll get his fair share of snaps but since he is coming back from injury and did not exactly light to world on fire he does not necessarily have to get his starting position back. Some of this has to do with Hunt, but with THunt playing decent last 2 games maybe he will find an open West a little more.

Absolutely. Talent was never the issue. He lost Shafer's trust being academically ineligible last season. The Funderburke was a bust comments were far overblown. Just by watching him practice and warm up you can tell he is extremely talented.

Can't wait until next year, but I wouldn't mind a sneak peak vs Minny
 
Really want to see Funderburke succeed on the Hill.

I hope he keeps the momentum from BC going at Reliant Stadium.
