Haters may have been too strong a word, I should of put critics. I just wanted to show what this guy can do with the ball in his hands. I love Jennings too but if we are going after a FA I want Wallace...he will do for us everything V Jackson did for Tampa Bay. Jennings is solid but Wallace is explosive! We can also add playmakers in the draft and be so dangerous next year. Philbin knows exactly what to do with these weapons!

Wallace is not the same kind of receiver VJ is.

I don't believe he said they are the same kind of receiver? He would do what VJ did for Tampa Bay, make them stronger at the WR position.

GM Kevin Colbert said Wednesday it's "very doubtful" the Steelers use the franchise tag.
"I don't think we have too many franchise players," Colbert said bluntly. "We're not married to anybody." It's the strongest indication yet the Steelers plan to let Mike Wallace hit the open market, where he'd almost certainly receive an offer Pittsburgh couldn't match. Despite a down 2012, the 26-year-old Wallace figures to be the most sought after free agent wideout.

For the record I could make a Ted Ginn highlight video as long as this Wallace one, and I guarantee you it would look just as impressive.

While everybody and their mother know how much better Wallace is than Ginn, Wallace is a one trick pony. How much is it worth when you can do it at as elite a level as he can? We'll find out I guess.

There is an army of one.

Can we also show a video of his drops this year? He had a lot.

These were his words chief: "he will do for us EVERYTHING V Jackson did for Tampa Bay"

What did VJ do for Tampa that Wallace hasn't done for the Steelers?

They play two very different roles at the WR position. Wallace is a lean go-route speedster, while VJ is a big bodied, athletic freak that can play multiple WR positions. They effect the game in different ways.
