Brandon Marshall says Robby Anderson can be a No. 1 receiver, but ...

The New York Jets have only two wide receivers with more than 42 career receptions -- Quincy Enunwa and Eric Decker, who is coming off two surgeries. Quinton Patton would've made it three, but he was placed on injured reserve Monday.

It's a young, unproven receiving corps, and it needs Robby Anderson to take a step forward in his second season -- maybe two steps.

Can he do it? Brandon Marshall, who considers himself a big brother to Anderson, loves his former teammate's potential. But he also believes Anderson must learn to give consistent effort, suggesting that wasn't always the case when they worked out together earlier in the offseason.
