I think DA is slotted to be our #3 WR this year. I' sure Davis will get a few reps, but it looks doubtful that Jacoby is even part of the plan. I don't think that this contract is outrageous for the role he is likel to fill for this team this year. I do think the Texans didn't play their hand well with the low tender.

Well said papabear, where I disagree is I think we need a more talented guy for the #3 slot. Read that to mean a little faster/quicker.
Now what do we have tied up in #3 WR? Anderson, Andre Davis and JJ or at least his 3rd round pick.
But over all I must be nitpicking, if I am the only complaining. After all you cannot have super stars at every position.
