Dropoff by Jones opens No. 3 spot
Receivers' revolving door
http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=702874
I dont see anything official on this but I thought it was interesting.
Other than driver and jennings the other three seem to be playing about the same.

I am not surprised about that decision. Its nothing against Jones who will be a fine player but when you have the luxury to have a veteran like Robinson as a 4th receiver, you need to give him more snaps. He would be a #2 receiver in many teams.

It does seem like robinson has been trying harder to get more YAC when he gets the ball.

Fact is I really just havent seen Jones do much lately, but martin has had some nice catches. I think its probably just that robinson has been getting more action lately along with a few designed plays for the YAC and its making him seem like a better number 3. But he does seem to be more reliable for the position for now.

I'd like to see Barbre and Spitz (if he's healthy) at OG in the post-season, with Ruvell Martin being the three. I don't think it will happen, but I have yet to see Martin drop a ball and good things happen in the passing game when he's in.

Junior cornerback Jack Ikegwuonu said the bowl loss made it more likely he will return for his senior season, saying he had "unfinished business here at Wisconsin." But he acknowledged his decision will hinge on where he is projected in the NFL draft.

The Denver Post reports that wide receiver Javon Walker, acquired via a trade with the Green Bay Packers, said he wants out of Denver. Walker suggested he might even like to return to Green Bay.

As far as Barbre being in, I think pressure-testing rookies can bring out the best in them. I liked how Colledge, Spitz and Moll all handled themselves as rookies last year. Yeah, it's the playoffs, but it's not like Spitz, Colledge or Thompson have been in a playoff game either.

I think we will see him in the playoffs, but not as a starter. Im sure he will have to fill in at times.

Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. He got the four picks, one of which he earned on his own. The team went 3-1, and it wasn't his fault they lost to Chicago. I am not a big Atari fan, as I think he's limited with speed and not overly aware of what's going on with plays, but he's a decent tackler and he produces the turn-overs that were missing from Roman and Manuel. Congrats to Bigby and I hope he gets four more picks, tipped or not, in the playoffs!
