Even if we sign Bryant Johnson, I'm betting that the Bills will still draft one of the top receivers this year, in the 1st or 2nd round and groom them to take over for Lee Evans. Look at the crazy contracts out there for WRs....

The truth is...how many of these guys are actually better than Lee Evans? None of them. With a good QB, Lee Evans is easily one of the top 10 WRs in the league. Just imagine the dollar signs in his eyes right now and his agent's eyes too. Chris Brown basically said the same thing this morning....
