I also like Markus Wheaton from Oregon State. A receiver built in the Mike Wallace mold, but with better hands. A second rounder on him would be worth it.

I like Wheaton as well. He's been very consistent the last couple of years too which I like.

The Steelers drafted him in the 1st, and he had more raw talent than Patton. I remember watching Edwards tune up Ralph Brown for about 400 yards and 3 TD's in a shootout with Nebraska, but I digress. Edwards had a hit and miss career pro career. Patton seems to run better routes than Edwards.
If you'll watch Patton, he catches the ball with his hands also just like AJ does. I don't know how well respected Bucky Brooks is, but he has compared Patton to Reggie Wayne.

I've heard several comparison's to Brandon Lloyd as well. I like Patton, and will look forward to how he competes in the All-Star games. I also like Markus Wheaton and Josh Boyce FWIW.
