there is plenty of things you lose with pure speed players
one is size, two is durability. usually fast players are very light and break easily
see: Johnny Knox, any Raiders player.
all you have to do is press any speed WR and they are jammed off their routes. Which makes a guy like Calvin Johnson that rare of a player, a guy that fast with that size, is very, very rare.
Mike Wallace cant beat the press, Torrey Smith cant beat the press, and they are currently the two best speed WRs in the NFL.
