No it's not, Brazzell was a better receiver.

Wheatfall currently has more yards then Brazzell ever had with the Blue in his 3 seasons with us.

Brazzell also played with teams that weren't the Bombers... and they weren't exactly the glory days of blue bombers football when he was here...

I had forgot that Brazzell was around for years before he came here at the end of his career.  His most memorable play to me is running along with Milt on the 105 yard game winner.

Just saw that his son, Chris Brazzell II, plays for Tennessee. Get him on the neg list!

Whatever you do, Dave... Don't run to the can right before the half.... You never know what might happen... #LessonsLearned

Haven't been able to post or visit mbb much this year. Just glancing over some of the comments. People hating on Walters??? How quickly the tides turn around here...

Should've signed a serviceable back up though. I thought strev had it. He doesn't. You'd think they'd be able to evaluate that

Not exclusively - there's enough hate to go around!

344 yards in 10 games or 34.4 per game and over 50 4 times. So not productive through August. 

How many of those games was Chris Streveler throwing passes? Pretty tough to blame our receiving corps for a dud QB. Yea, when Collaros came back everyone's numbers rebounded last game. Wheatfall didn't get that bump because he was injured. He has over 600 yards as a first year starter, those are pretty decent numbers. Just out of curiousity how many yards a game is Mitchell averaging this season? Yea...there is the fly in the ointment right there.  23 yds per game. That doesn't scream sit down Wheatfall because we are holding this guy back to me.

Honestly, to me Demski, Clercius and Wilson are three keepers at receiver. I like Sterns well enough too. To me that last spot be it Mitchell or Wheatfall needs an upgrade. Could also use another NI WR. 

This has been fan ramblings on the Internet. Thank you for listening. 

I'd be willing to roll with Wheatfall another year. The kid is essentially a rookie starter and he has been putting up decent numbers despite Streveler being our QB half the time.
