    Next year could be
    1 Polk
    2 McMillan
    3 Jackson or Alexander or Davis

    and I'm good with that

    Very, very average group on the whole.
    McMillan and Polk are far from Average. Both are better than Petits. Jackson will be a senior and has improved significantly in both running routes getting open and making explosive plays.
    Polk is nowhere near as good as Pettis. McMillan is getting there, but still not at his level. Him being a weirdo and sucking in the NFL is really causing some people to forget how dominant he was here.
    Pettis housed 9 punt returns. Polk has caught a handful of TD passes and had one huge game. He has a ways to go.

    I mean the punt returns is a different thing, seeing as this discussion is about these guys as wide receivers. Obviously the PRTDs put Pettis in a class by himself.

    Show me one exceptional play that Jackson has made. Just one.

    He isn't fast or quick, doesn't threaten the defense with RAC, and hasn't come close to housing a single kick or punt. I don't know what led to him starting at michigan, but he left there for a reason.
    I think he housed a kick or two his freshmen year at Michigan. I get your point though. I think he has some good quickness but he stops his feet wayyy too much so he often doesn’t get the yards that are there. I prefer Davis and Polk to get reps
    Over him at wr.

    It illustrates my point. Pettis made plays on his own. He had that ability and showed it early and often for hia whole career. Its hard to find a better example than a guy with 9 return TDs. Odunze does by breaking tackles and putting pressure on the D every time he touches it. McMillan is capable of the same but doesn't fight for it like Odunze.

    Jackson has yet to do anything of the sort. If memory serves he had played about 20 games at UW. I'm waiting.

    He has a couple of plays in that entire clip where he did anything on his own. The KOR touchdown he had two guys to beat and both should have had him. They just waved at him as he ran by. He was schemed open for some offensive plays but didn't have to create anything.

    Plus that was then, this is now. He has had plenty of time to do it at UW. He hasn't made any big returns and only a couple that were even good plays on his part. Most often he struggles to reach the 25 on kickoffs.

    I'm not saying he's bad though. He's a nice player. He's not making big plays on his own though and doesn't strike fear in anybody.

    I don’t recall him doing much without Ross as a receiver. His return game is HOF status

    13 games 63 catches 761 yards 12.1 average
    Was that his senior year stay line? I remember him missing time that year but thought he still had more yards than that.
