If you were to tell me he would be the first WR taken I would say shut the fuck up.

Everyone puts too much stock into draft rankings by the so-called experts.
Avery is a system pick who will be the best fit in the Rams' scheme.

I heard later today that he more used to more sets then the other WR's in this draft so they felt he would do the best at learning there systems plus hsi speed.

This WR class is pretty bad, but Sweed would've been my pick instead of Avery. He's a big guy but he can create seperation and has good instincts to put himself in position to make every catch... Pittsburgh got a steal.
I was hoping the Jets would take him when they traded up.

Sweed is just the absolute perfect WR for the Steelers at this point. Santonio is our burning deep threat, Hines is the guy you can count on to make the big catch and run the perfect route, and Sweed will bring a great red zone/big play element in his first season. He could be an exceptional third WR. Having Nate Washington, an extraordinary athlete, as our fourth WR is impressive.
Pittsburgh probably has the deepest amount of young talent at skill positions in the NFL right now.

Avery was a good pick for the Rams. People are way too obsessed with what school a guy plays at and what names they have heard from douches like Kiper, Clayton, PFW and all the other bullshit sites that know nothing.
