Yea, I’ve always liked Wright. I think he’d be a good fit in this offense too. Good route runner, good hands, picks up YAC, knows where the markers are.

Why was he cut? Doesn't look like he was making that much coin, and he played 16 games last year, so it doesn't appear to be injury related?

Stats look pretty Jaggy...what's the interest?

I'm still way intrigued by Willy Snead and his low tender.

EDIT - stats look pretty Jaggy the last 2 years. Was he simply pushed down the depth chart and now, off the roster? Was this a "courtesy" cut i.e., the kid deserves more run than is possible in MN given their depth chart?

Wright got a little shiftiness to him and a second gear, strong hands too. I wonder why he was cut? He could be cheap, they definitely should be looking at him

By now you probably know my philosophy : Crabtree and Brown are enough!
(a) draft a WR high (1st or 2nd round) which Ozzie might not do if he signs another FA WR.
(b) use our remaining cap $ on a position of need (like TE or O-line).
(c) how do we know someone like Tim White can't do what Wright can?

IOW, I'd pass... Bc

Are people really wondering why he was cut? Fricken' Antonio Brown has probably outproduced his last 2 seasons combined in a single game. Wright has never really done much in the league, WR4, meh would rather have Jordan Matthews or Pryor who have 10x the upside. Even Kendall Wright has a much better track record as a proven producer.

Ill pass unless he wants no more than 1m

Exactly. Probably half the cost. Also provides insurance if/when John Brown misses games.

Should be less than half the cost of Grant. Can be Campanaro’s replacement.

[Raveninwoodlawn]

Solid WR. Take him depending on cost.

Crabtree
Brown
Kirk/Moore/Miller
Wright
Moore
White

That seems like an actual reset to me.

Do we want a core of all shorter receivers? i like some of the taller guys but the ones that can catch unlike #11.

[Ravens_20]

I would still try and get ebron. He pretty much is a big body receiver.

Crabtree
Brown

More of the reset we envisioned for sure
