Knox, en route
Bears, what the hell are you doing?
I just don't understand you guys sometimes. Getting Roy Williams was a step in the right direction (bring in some "veteran" presence to an otherwise young and inexperienced WR corps), but demoting Knox to 4th wideout on the depth chart?
Let's do a little number crunch, shall we?
In 2010-2011, Knox had 51 catches for 960 yards and 5 TDs. When you remove the 2 Todd Collins starts, you get 49 catches for 920 yards and 5 TDs in 14 games. Last I checked, that's pretty respectable production for a WR in a ragtag group.
Knox will be sitting behind people who put up the following statlines:
Devin Hester: 40 catches for 475 yards and 4 TDs
Roy Williams: 37 catches for 530 yards and 5 TDs
And I'd like to remind all of you that "In His Prime", Hester was the 1A receiver on the 2008 and 2009 teams. Neither one of those years did he come close to Knox's numbers last year.
