Santonio Holmes - 2007 Community Projections

I thought it'd be fun and interesting to project the 2007 production of some of our favorite Steelers on both offense and defense.

Let's start with Santonio Holmes, the 2nd year WR out of Ohio State. Holmes finished 2006 with 49 receptions for 824 yards and 2 TDs, including the game-winner against the Bengals in Week 17 that bounced Cincy from the playoff picture. Those aren't bad numbers at all for a rookie, let alone one who only had the opportunity to start four football games.

Holmes has carried over his solid play to this preseason. He's made big plays in both preseason games, and seems poised to have a break-out year in 2007 as the Steelers #2 receiving threat.

My 2007 projections for Santonio:

65 receptions, 965 yards, 14.8 YPC, 7 TDs

Your turn.

santonio
wouldn't suprise me if he's our #1 threat this year... nothing against hines but i expect santonio to put up as much yardage as hines (fewer catches but more yardage per catch)

not to get off topic
But I guess I will. I think a few more 1000+ yard seasons plus a Super Bowl MVP will set up Hines for a HOF.  I'm kinda new to this site, so you may have already discussed this.

As far as Santonio's numbers:  65 rec, 1030 yards, 8 TD

Yes, NC State Alum
Or, as we like to say: The real Wolfpack. :)  I guess since they are the Wolf Pack, it's a little different, anyway.  Thanks for the welcome, steelerark.
