    He could be a right player/right price type of guy. Has some YAC ability, good fit if we stick with the WCO. I would support that signing for sure.

    His teammate Allen Robinson might come cheaply too given that he's coming back from a torn ACL, but obviously a risky signing for that same reason.

    Another name to watch is John Brown out of Arizona. That would be more of a dumpster dive type signing but he is talented and has produced when healthy.

    Free agents (Note I think Adams is a lock to re-sign):
    1) Jarvis Landry - I know some don't think he fits the downfield game and I for sure don't disagree, but I think he could be very good in the slot the way Boldin was. In a well-designed offense it could open up some strong looks in the middle for Landry. He's a strong route runner and has good hands. Plays tough too.
    2) Marqise Lee - Loved him coming out of USC
    3) Ryan Grant - Could be more in the Ravens price range. He's pretty solid in the slot.

    *I think Sanders could get from DEN and he would be on this list immediately. Love his game.

    Draft picks:
    1) James Washington - Speed, big play ability. Explosive guy. Don't agree with the DJax comparisons. I think he can do more.
    2) Courtland Sutton - Big body and uses it well. Need to watch some full games to see his hands, not sure if he's a dropper.
    3) Dante Pettis - Should be a 3rd round guy. Another field stretcher who can return punts (4 TD this year - 9 career at Washington). Production regressed this year. He'd be a complimentary piece.

    Adding Washington and having Moore on the outside with Landry and Pettis in the inside could be quite solid.

    Davante Adams if by some crazy insane miracle he ever hits the free agent market. I'm hoping since the Packers got mediocre results after they paid up for Cobb and all the injury issues after the paid big for Nelson that they take a pass on what will be a huge contract for Adams. If he did hit the market I'd go all in and sign him

    For the draft I hate Calvin Ridley. He's a late 2nd round talent who will be pushed up by a bad group. Just stay away.

    Sutton from SMU is that big bodied WR that we've been looking to draft the past 20 years. He looks like Dez Bryant and like Bryant could be around a little lower in the round because he doesn't have elite speed

    Simmie Cobbs Jr. from Indiana also looks interesting. Very good athlete and another 6'4 guy.

    At this point I’m tired of trying to find speed. Find a guy who can catch a f’ing ball and has some dog in him like Boldin and I’m good with that.

    I think just the savings alone is worth it considering that 5M can just go towards signing a WR on the market that has a lot more potential ie Landry, Allen Robinson, Decker or

    Brian Quick is a guy I have always been intrigued in for no real reason other than size (6'3 220) and maybe just bring him in camp to see if he can win the job, low risk, high reward

    I see Jordy Nelson being cut and Adams being signed, to me it just makes sense. And its exactly a move Oz would make to bring him in

    Emanuel Sanders or D Thomas I could see being cut, I think Sanders is the more likely option. If either is cut, a typical Oz move as well.

    Tyrell Williams (LAC) is a RFA, not sure what goes into trying to sign him, anyone?

    What I would like to see: Sign Jordy Nelson and Jimmy Graham, draft a guy, cut Maclin, Keep Wallace. I get signing Graham and Nelson is very unlikely, but I would be pretty happy with either, prefer Nelson but Graham could offer exactly what Joe needs. If we signed those two in FA I would be extremely happy.

    When the Steelers RB has 21 less receiving yards then our leading WR, you know you need to address the position...and scheme, which the last couple weeks the scheme hasn't been the problem.

    For me it's Landry by a mile. Our offense needs his competitiveness. We do best with combative, physical, feisty receivers. We need a Boldin or a SSS and he's the most like that from what I've seen.

    Competitiveness, routes, intelligence, hands. That's all that matters. Landry gives you that, and I'd pay a hefty price, to make it happen.

    We don't need any more "deep threats." The organization is too chickenshit conservative to put the ball deep much to begin with. Our QB is lucky to land a deep ball within a 5 yard radius of the receiver anyway, even when we do call it. What other team do you see guys catching 40 yard passes while *facing the QB*?

    We are what we are. Move the chains. Get me a guy you can throw a 7 yard hitch to on 3rd and nine and who will convert those last 2 yards through sheer will and grit. Get me a guy who will maintain a block on a running play.

    Guys in college should really think about putting more stiff-arms to the grill on their game tape instead of trying to shave 0.02 off their 40 times. I don't care about your 40 time, kid. I care about how you compete.

    Agree about Landry. Plus, he’s only 24.

    The Dolphins also don't seem to want to keep him. That's the 1 top WR that seems likely to hit the free agent market.
