I think Wallace will have the most receptions.

I think he'll have the most yards, and touchdown catches, but as evidenced again last night, ( and in the Super bowl) Wallace still doesn't come back hard to the ball. I think that might be starting to bother Ben and it could hurt Wallace's stats in the season if he doesn't figure it out soon.

I'm going out on a limb and predicting Sanders will lead the team in 3rd down receptions.

he seemed to be very good at that last season

If he gets healthy soon it is a possibility

I have to say that Ward is my pick most of the time, but Brown sure is looking good for the job.

I voted Hines Ward because when you need that first down, he's money.

I think we might also so a rise in Heath Miller's first down receptions if he doesn't have to stay in and block all the damn time.

It's gonna be a Lynn Swann vs. John Stallworth type competition only with 4-6 guys instead of 2...

Hope he just looks for who is open and not get tied to one receiver. Scan the field and find the open guy, don't force it to your favorite. With this group, there will be someone open. If he has time.

The press has started calling Brown "young money"....but during the Steelers Universe interview with Antonio...he specifically told me that He, Sanders, and Wallace were the "Young Money Crew".

Individually they call themselves (and I am not kidding)

Wallace = "Fast Money."
Sanders = "Easy Money."
Brown = "Cash Money."

Jokingly the three younger WR's call Ward..."Old Money." and Ben is called "Large Money".

I'm not saying they are good nicknames....I'm just saying thats what they call themselves.

I know that Wallace was refered to "Trick" or "One Trick" which he doesnt care for because it referes to Tomlin saying that he is a one trick pony. Sanders was called "the Sandman" in college....and Brown was once called "Rod Tidwell." by Hines Ward due to his on the field antics. (Rod Tidwell was the character played by Cuba Gooding Jr in the movie Jerry Maguire )...but Brown has also referred to himself as "Turk"

When they need a big first down, I truly believe Ben will always look toward the vet Hines Ward. He is ole reliable. Not that other guys aren't deserving.

Ben has one of the best, if not THE best, tandem of receivers in the league, so it's really hard to say who will be his go-to guy, but I'm going to say for now that it is Wallace. What is awesome is that opposing defenses can't blanket Wallace, Brown and Hines all at the same time so one of them will most likely always be open. :tt02:

Go to in the sense of who he'll be thinking of as he's scrambling on 3rd down? Hines, no doubt.

But I think Wallace will be the big threat and emerge as the clear cut best WR on the team. You're going to see a guy who will be able to run the whole route tree effectively. Playing off and rolling a safety to try and stop the deep ball won't work anymore.

1st & 10 - Wallace
1st & 15 - Brown
2nd & 8 - Cotchery
3rd & 9 - Ward
3rd & 6 - Miller
3rd & 25 - Sanders

dixon will be called "funny money" - because he is not a real QB
