Should we use Ginn more, and work him into the O more?

I dont see how we can keep Ginn off the field. With Ginn in the game he almost instantly demands double teams with his speed. If he doesnt get doubled thats a 1 on 1 matchup you want. In that situation speed kills and Ginn has alot of speed. Morgan on the other hand will never demand double teams and most teams will be comfortable leaving him manned up against their #2 or 3 corner. Ginn adds the element of excitement and expolsiveness thats teams have to account for. If you never even threw the ball to Ginn and used him as a decoy alone, He would be more valuable than Morgan IMO. If Ginn can drag a safety and corner out of a play just by going deep then he needs to be starting. That just opens up the field and leaves an advantage for the offense. Thoughts?

He won't. He's an ideal #3 WR who brings some speed although suspect hands. His suspect hands and lack of bulk will prevent him from being the #2 WR. Even though Morgan sucks we are stuck with him at #2 for now.

WHAT!!! Never man the dude can't even catch talking about him being a number 2 day we have him
As a number 2 we need to draft a WR!

I dont see it happening either. Morgan is a solid player, he just needs to be given more chances.

He drops the ball WAY to damn much to be a number 2. Miami screwed up drafting him as high as they did, he is no more than a number 3 WR and a number 1 KR return guy

Hopefully never.

Ginn is probably going to be our best option to go deep three or four times a game and play a little slot... and that's it.

He doesn't have the hands to be a possession receiver that will keep drives alive by getting first downs nor is he a great blocker down field.

Morgan, however, is a good number two receiver for those very reasons.

This.

Morgan doesn't have the best hands on the team, but we need a dependable receiver as our number 2. Ginn needs to be consistent with his hands to even be considered. IMO, he's our best returner and serves as a decoy for the deep threat so teams don't stack the box.

I think way too many people expect too much from Morgan. A freakin 6th round pick who has developed nicely as a big physical receiver who can break tackles, run block and go across the middle.

You guys should have expected a lot more from Mr. Ginn and Mr.Hill (jason). 1st and 3rd rounders. Let's not even mention Brandon Jon..
