WR's Around The League We Should Look At
-
-
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.

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.

This guy looks like an interesting small school prospect:
WR Guice demonstrates blazing speed at workout
The official Northwestern State (La.) pro day is March 19, but one scout showed up on Tuesday, so the school held an impromptu workout.
WR Dudley Guice put up some impressive numbers on the outdoor FieldTurf track. He checked in at 6-foot-2 1/2, 209 pounds and ran a 4.40- and a 4.43-second 40-yard dash. That time would have ranked him among the fastest participants at last month’s combine. He also had a 39-inch vertical jump, 10-foot, 5-inch broad jump, a 4.01-second short shuttle, a 6.61-second three-cone drill and 12 bench-press reps of 225 pounds. It is also noteworthy that he has 34-inch arms — a good measurement for a wideout.

NFL | Several teams showing interest in Guice
Fri, 20 Mar 2009 00:00:09 -0700
Josh Buchanan, of NFLDraftBible.com, reports Northwestern State WR Dudley Guice said during an interview that the New Orleans Saints, the Miami Dolphins, the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Atlanta Falcons, the Cleveland Browns and the Indianapolis Colts are among the teams showing the most interest in him.

In all honesty the guy looks good.... but I think he needs to put on some weight.... After seeing a guy like Dez Bryant, every WR looks tiny to me. Were in the AFC north which is very physical, not only are recievers called to run block, but to make the catch and get some yards after, physical yards, when you look at recivers like Anquan Boldin or Hines Ward, you can tell that theyre able to deliver a hit. Ive seen Braylon deliver a few himself (this is why I liked picking up Stallworth when we did, as I dont think there is a better break tackle reciever).
I like recievers that are hard to bring down, here are some examples:


Dez Bryant_________________________________________________Anquan Boldin


Hines Ward______________________________Jerry Porter
I like those WR's with a good Height/Weight ratio
-
Outside of Bryant next year, I think we could scoop up this guy this year as our #2, he is very impressive on the post
Kenny Britt

Hands and Concentration
Route-Running Skills Britt is a physically gifted receiver with tremendous upside. He has great size, good strength and is a dynamic playmaker down field. He’s versatile; he can play inside or outside, he runs good routes and uses his long strides to his advantage. He’s not afraid of contact and makes a lot of receptions over the middle. He’s outstanding after the catch and runs with purpose. - Chris Steuber, Scout.com
