    What is everyones thoughts on him? He was electric at various points but wildly inconsistent. Seems like the offense had no idea how to use him until the end of the season.

    Seems like he should get put into the offense next year. It's going to be make or break for S. Bradford so he's going to need some help from Austin and Stacy. I wouldn't grab Austin as my WR1 but I'd be happy with him as a flex/WR3/4 for sure next year and a stash for dynasty.

    I saw a segment where the GM talked about Austin on NFL Network. I think they are still very high on him. They acknowledged that the struggles earlier in the season were partly how to use him, and  Tavon needing to be more consistent. I think later in the year we saw glimpses of what he might become. Good buy low IMO.

    The st Louis core of wrs is terrible besides Austin. I am not real high on Bradford either. Austin's a good buy low because of those reasons.

    As a Greater St. Louis Area resident and a "fan" (?) of the Rams... I wish we had any of Allen, Hopkins or Patterson

    I am not high at all on Austin. He is a gimmick NOT a starter

    I always thought patterson should have gone first..he is Austin but bigger? How did he not go first?
    Bold Predictions:
    June 21- Dez Bryant finishes as the #1 WR in 2013.

    Well... Austin was a more polished product... Patterson was viewed as being too much of a project

    I still like Austin. I'm guessing they saw a love child of Tory Holt & Marshall Faulk (a huge believer in Tavon BTW). He flashed for sure but always tough when others show more sooner.
