Cena sucks.
Now Scott Hall was where it was at.
If you look at Perriman's stats from this past year and he is already providing what Torrey did in his best years. The difference is that Torrey was the only game in town when he was here. He played 97% of the offensive snaps. The Ravens last year had Steve Smith and Wallace this past year. Wallace and Perriman have a similar skill set. Perriman had 33 Receptions for 500 yards with 3 TDs while only playing 47% of the snaps. If you doubled his snaps his stats would be 66 receptions with 1000 yards and 6 TDs. That puts him right in the same productivity range of Torrey. It was his first year after in the NFL after missing his entire rookie season. 50% catch ratio is about the same as Torrey. I don't thin anyone would disagree that Perriman has a higher ceiling.
This is why the whole Torrey discussion shouldn't even be a thing. Perriman can already do what Torrey does, and he's a young player on a rookie deal with a much higher ceiling.
It doesn't make sense at all to me to even entertain the idea of resigning Torrey. If they sign him at a bargain bin price, it's not bad. But even that, do we need another 1 trick pony with drop issues? I'm really tired of receivers like that. I want guys who can run routes and catch the damn ball in traffic.
