  • I dont know why but for some reason I dont really like Housh, He's consistent and all, and he gets big numbers, but I think his success is amplified by having Chad being double and triple covered on the field, he is also targeted on alot of curl routes. I dont think he'd do well anywhere besides cinci, plus, theyre gonna Franchise him this offseason

  • now actually, the more I think about it, the more I think crabtree is a sexy pick in the draft....

    or is his highlight video produced that damn good

    The temptation is sickening... stay focused... Maualuga maualuga maualuga....

  • Colston wears #12, why ? Is he another Cribbs ??

    Receivers generally wear the 80's unless they're a multi talent. Ie.; Cribbs, Stewart (years ago in Pitts).

    Edwards wears 17, R. Moss wears 18, Stallworth wears 18, etc.

  • What I'd LOVE to see is somehow we swing a trade involving Braylon and L. Fitzgerald if Fitz is still at odds with the Az coaching staff. That guy CATCHES the ball.....

  • Actually it was Boldin who was having fits with the coaching staff, & he's a free agent, but he is likely to get franchised

  • No to Ocho Cinco. Don't need the headache.

    No way Arizona lets Boldin leave. He's too valuable and they know it.

    Breaston is interesting, because Arizona isn't gonna pay THREE WRs top dollar, are they. Perhaps Braylon's 2nd banana at Michigan can reprise that role here...

    For Colston, see Boldin.

    Afraid to say, our best/most realistic option might be Stallworth.

    It probably will be Stallworth unless they want to eat a big cap hit. Then again, Pioli and McDaniels had no interest in keeping him in NE after his best year as a pro.

    Looking for a receiver.......................draft one. The problem with this team is they wanted to build a solid core through FA while winning teams are building their teams through the draft.

  • I just wanted to bump this thread back up due to all the Edwards trade talk going around, we might need a WR

    Someone here was talking about shopping Edwards for Boldin, I actually think this is possible, what about going for ocho?

    Oh, and if someone is willing to give us a 1st rounder next year for him, I have quite the draft choice, Randy Moss/Boldin hybrid, check this guy out:

    Dez Bryant

    He's sick.... the only problem is speed, I dont see him burnin folks

  • Can we trade for Darren McFadden? Too bad the this ain't Madden cuz I traded J-Lew str8 up for McFadden 😆

    It's gotta be tough on the cap to pay two guys like big-time #1 WRs... and I say that for the Cardinals and Browns. Most teams pay one guy that kind of jack and then have a reliable "possession receiver" opposite him. Sometimes that guy evolves into more, like Houshmadilla and Wayne.

    Plus, the Browns have Winslow. In theory, at least, the Big Two are former Pro Bowlers Edwards and Winslow.

    It seemed to me that both guys thrived when the other receiver was a big possession receiver (Joe J.). Stallworth could move into the slot and be replaced by someone like Bryant Johnson or a third round pick who doesn't have to be crazy fast. And Joe J. is coming back.

    I think both Steptoe and Hubbard will be on the roster next year, with an eye toward Hubbard becoming a #2, which might be a little pie-in-the-sky at this point, but who knows. He's big and he can run and jump.

    No, the Browns do not have Winslow.

    i like Malluguguguga too.

    where is he falling in the draft? seems like a stud player. i'm surprised more people aren't talking bout him.

  • Now that Stallworth may be potentially gone, we should re-surface this and start thinking seriously.

    I say we make a move to get breaston, too bad we got rid of WInslow because I would have done that trade straight up. How about DA for breaston and a third or fourth?

  • Steve Breaston....A 5th round find from the Big Ten. Ya just gotta get lucky with these picks sometimes!

    I'd like to see them coach up Lance Leggett. Good physical tools but can't catch the ball. If he can just hang on to the ball would be a nice addition.

    He's definitely a big kid! I like those big WR's. I never saw him play much. Any videos on Youtube?

  • I watched Leggett all Training Camp. I'll pass. Much worse than Hubbard, Steptoe, Sanders, etc.

  • After watching tape on Hubbard, he looks like a viable receiver, I actually wouldnt mind putting him in the slot this year, or maybe even starting him opposite of Edwards if Stallworth gets sacked.

    You know who actually looks really bad on tape... Martin Rucker, he looks straight up awful. He comes out of cuts SLOW AS HELL. He catches with his hands which is good, and has O.K. straightaway speed, but he looks so un-coordinated running any kind of route its quite laugable. I did notice he runs strong though, looks like he's hard to bring down.

    Outside of that I really want to see is for us to find some way to land Breaston in a trade.... How does that happen, how do teams pick these guys up in the fifth and sixth rounds and turn them into viable starting material.

    it's called 'good coaching.' i had to look up how it happens because i haven't seen it in so long.

  • ESPN just reported that the Jaguars released receiver Matt Jones

    The Jacksonville Jaguars have released receiver Matt Jones, an NFL source told ESPN's Chris Mortensen.

    The former Arkansas player was charged with cocaine possession in July.

    He was suspended for the last three games of the 2008 season for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. In a plea deal, Jones entered a program that emphasizes treatment.

    Jones was released a day early from jail Saturday during a weeklong stay for drinking beer in violation of his plea agreement for a drug charge.

    The Jaguars picked Jones in the first round of the NFL draft in 2005. Before his suspension last season, Jones was having the best year of his career, with 65 catches for 761 yards and two touchdowns.
