First off, it's dubious at best that he's better than Quick. Quick in the first three games this year has had three games better than any Bailey has had receiving in the NFL. They both looked good in training camp of course. I just don't see how you can argue that.
Britt looked great in training camp, as did Bailey. However, in the NFL practice does make a difference. Bailey missed 3 weeks of practice - including the only 2 weeks where Davis was getting most of the reps in practice. Unless you're arguing that getting reps with the starting QB doesn't matter for receivers, you really don't have any case. Hint: Don't argue that - you'll look silly.
Good post, and to add, even if Bailey is listed behind those guys on the depth chart, he's still going to get plenty of reps once he gets up to speed.
