Troy and Zwick were on opposite ends of the spectrum as well, but the offense didn't change drasticly depending on who was in the game (at least in 05-06). Plus, we do need at least few TE's for goal line sets. Don't forget that we offered Hageman as well as Fragel.

I'd say it's pretty clear that the staff wants 4 WRs...but I have Evans a little higher on the probability chart than BGriff does...there has been a little glimmer of hope there, at least moreso than anything I've seen out of Marlon Brown. I don't know what it is but I get a good feeling from both Evans and Boyd...I would love to have either one, although I would prefer Boyd, mainly because to me Evans is a carbon copy of Devier Posey whereas Boyd brings a little something different to the table. The fact that Boyd has all but committed to making an official to OSU is definitely a good sign. I don't know enough about Debose at this point to speculate on him at all...

Exactly. As Pryor (or Bauserman or Henton) grows into the position more packages will be introduced to take advantage of his strengths but it's still the same base offensive...and those packages are already in the playbook.

Agreed on everything said here...I really have hope that we will land one of these 4 guys...all are very very good receivers, and would be welcomed additions here on top of Fields, Jackson, and Carter...
Boyd is number 1 receiver on my board as well...He plays like a big receiver with small receiver speed and separation...

Safe to say Brown is all DB then?

'09 PA ATH Corey Brown is a Buckeye!
Yup...DB all the way...still likely looking at 4 WRs.
Wonder what happens if Clarke and Brown pull the trigger quickly...
