Very few WR's EVER have had the quickness paired with the elite top end speed to just smoke man coverage like Hill can. In Miami, the presence of Waddle still allows for it.

That doesn't mean there aren't a bunch of other ways to win a rep. And the big bodied, high point guy is still a perfectly legitimate WR type that's difficult to defend. That 2nd and 18 play is a good illustration of that.

I'm not declaring that Ross has arrived or anything, but that's damned encouraging.
One could argue that the ideal situation was to keep Hill and go find someone like Waddle so teams couldn't try to take it away (they didn't really, but they tried).
