Peter King calls out Wallace; Says Harrison should not be suspended

[PhantomJB93]

Before Sanders caught the injury bug (which is obviously before Brown broke out), I thought he was better than Brown. Sanders was key on critical/clutch drives last year; I specifically remember both Jets games and the Ravens playoff game, although he didn't have any TDs or "huge" catches, he had a ridiculous amount of 3rd down conversions and was starting to remind me of Santonio in the sense that Ben was finding him in bunches at a time to move down the field in 2 minute drills.

I don't necessarily know that he'll be better than Wallace or Brown are right not but if he can stay healthy our passing game will be ridiculous and Ward should almost never see the field.

even if there is the threat - I think we'll be unloading quite a few names that would get him money

hope Hines makes him realize that the grass isn't always greener if he is even considering it

He has rapport with AB and Sanders. Would you leave all your friends behind for the prospect of a higher paying job? That is the question he will be faced with in the future. Life is not all about money

And honestly, with the emergence of Brown and Sanders, and the stability that Cotchery will bring as well, we won't need to beg for his services. We're basically winning without him already.

Sanders has emerged? I haven't seen it. People keep talking as if Brown and Sanders are twins. So far all I've seen is average receiver who hasn't really done anything this year. If we get rid of Wallace it would probably be the dumbest thing this franchise has done in the past 10 years.

Mike Wallace will get his payday and he will not be like Holmes we only traded holmes is because we had Mike Wallace on the rise and he was not worth the money even tho he was a super bowl MVP...just stop hating on him cause he is not that great of a blocker SMH he makes plays and the last time i check thats all the really counts.

Cotch will take over for Hines. He's pretty much the same receiver but younger.

Sanders was playing good football last season before he was injured. In the little bit of time he has played this year he has played decently as well. He has had the injury bug and has kind of gotten lost on the depth chart behind the likes of Antonio Brown and Jerricho Cotchery because of it. I think we'll see his production go up next year when hopefully he gets back to 100% and gets more chances on the field.

"... Harrison should NOT be Suspended ..."

AGREED !

Wallace commands the respect of the defense. Brown is getting the catches because the defenses are overly concerned (with good reason) with the long ball to Wallace. Take Wallace out of the equation and the openings get smaller for Cotchery, Sanders, Ward, Miller, and Brown. Now can another Wallace be had in the draft in the next few years maybe, but if not the then we need to pay Wallace.
