could he be what he was 4 years ago ever again?

is he worth a spot on a deep dynasty team?

Fool's gold. Galloway and Glenn had starting jobs and no quality competition. Boston will have to climb over two receivers, one of whom is one of the best young receivers in the game. That's assuming he doesn't get busted for juicing again, or get injured again, or both.

Absolutly. He is still young and might have another decent season in him if he can get healthy physicaly and most importantly mentaly.I had to cut him from my team though because of superstitiousness about him giving me bad jOO jOO

Gotta figure out(somehow) why Boston hasn't been successful recently and if that has changed

0% chance this happens. Feel free to bump in December.

I like Boston in a big way in '07 for the Bucs as the WR2. That's not worth much more than a lucky 1k though, IMO.

Galloway will be gone after this season or in a reduced WR3 role if Gruden still feels like he can run with the best of them.

This year, he'll be relegated to WR4 and picking up the offense. If he passes 400 yards, I'll be very impressed.

You mean the one who was out of shape in his 2nd year? The one who had horrible work ethic in his 2nd year? The one who came into camp fat, lazy, and not interested in improving himself?Or did the Bucs aquire Fitzgerald, ROY, Evans, Jones?

There's a reason the Bucs are scrambling to find WRs. FAs, draft. You name it. Clayton was too busy reading how great he was, didn't put the work in, got hurt, and had a horrible year.

So when he's hurting, thats the production we should expect? Clayton is a joke. Clayton isn't even going to be starting come week 1.

Link?I had him on my team last year and got burned, as you apparently did as well. But all I ever heard was that Clayton got hurt in training camp, tried to play through it, and never was 50%, let alone 100% on the entire year. I won't reach for him, but even with last year, I would draft him again - unless of course you can back up his horrendous work ethic and lazy ways.

As to Boston (and as not to hijack) I think that projecting him to be this years Glenn/Galloway is a bit generous. I'm not sure he will be more than the #3 - and, I think that as Simms gets more comfortable this year, we will see distribution along the lines of Oakland circa 2001 (Brown - 91 catches, Rice 83, Garner 72, TE's 45, Porter 19). I believe that even with Pittman's presence, the RB will be featured a bit less and some of those balls may go to the 3rd reciever. Possibly 32 catches at his career average (14.9) would put him in the ballpark of 475 yards with 3 TDs. So no - not this years Galloway.

But we'll know much more when the Buc's start camp on Thursday.

Your entire post is inaccurate and wrong. Allow me to elaborate.He had surgery late in the offseason in '05 and it kept him from being able to condition properly. He only looked lazy because he was out of shape in training camp, and he was fine when the season started.

+----------+--------+-------------+----+| 1 min | 0 | 4 57 | 0 || 2 buf | 0 | 6 84 | 0 |He hurt himself blocking downfield for Cadillac in week 3, and all he ended up doing was blocking and being a decoy for pretty much the rest of the year. His legs were fine for the most part, but his shoulder (which you need to catch footballs) was banged up.The reason the Bucs are scrambling to find WRs is because Shepherd didn't pan out, Galloway is in his 12th year, Hilliard is in his 10th, and Gruden is moving toward doubling up on big WRs to block for Cadillac.

Michael Clayton - 6'4 215

Larry Brackins - 6'4 221

David Boston - 6'2 228

Maurice Stovall - 6'4 218

Notice anything there? Doesn't that look a bit different than:

Edell Shepherd - 6'1 175

Joey Galloway - 5'11 197

Ike Hilliard - 5'11 210

Mark Jones - 5'9 185

Lastly

Determined to be ready when the team's offseason program began, Clayton was a regular at One Buc Place in February while most of his teammates enjoyed a break from football.

Much like last season, he had knee surgery after the season but this time had the procedure done early. He began rehab quickly, fighting through the pain with a doctor's assurance he could not do further damage.

"I kept fighting and kept fighting, and when my muscles got strong enough to go, I was out here on the field running," he said. "So I've seen the results. Once you go through the hard work and you see results, it makes you want to work even harder."

THanks ML. You wrapped up much more eloquently what I was trying to say in my post.
