Free Agent WR's for 2008

I'd be all about getting Steve Smith.

Rolltide might object though....his stats are low this year, so you can clearly see by reading them that he sucks and has no talent.

 

I will not be satisfied with getting Berrian or Stallworth--we need a true number one, not a good number two receiver.

Look at the difference a stud receiver can make on an offense. A couple of examples: Look at Brady now that he has Moss--Culpepper was an All Pro with Moss, but has been mediocre without. Look at the difference TO made on McNabb. With a top tiered receiver, this team is probably 2-3 games better.

I for one would be fine giving up our number 1 pick for someone like Chad or Roy, but will be disappointed if we overpay for a good number 2 receiver and neglect getting a stud.

 

Avvie, 87 catches and a thousand yards is a bad year? Maybe you need to get some facts on hand before trying to be a smartass.

Smith would be a nice addition to our team. He's not one of the absolutely elite WRs out there but he is a darn good one. He is also still just 28 years old even though it seems he has been around forever.

I would give up a 2nd rd pick for him..

His contract runs through 2012 so we wouldn't have to worry about losing him..

 

SHSU, tell me who are these true #1 Wrs you are talking about?

 

I'd love to have Steve Smith. I'd trade a first round for him if we were going wr in the first.

 

We need a big physical WR who can catch sort of like the size of Justin Gage so I would like Roy Williams Chad Jonson, or Larry Fitzgerald. If I had to choose one I would choose Fitzgerals.

 

And how would we obtain one of those guys? They play for other teams.

 

A true #1 qould be someone like Boldin, Fitzgerald, R. Williams, St Smith--and those are #1s rumored to be available.

Last night's game would have been a lot easier with a number 1 guy. Gage has played well, but any of the abovementioned guys would have made the long catch in the endzone that Gage let up on.

I want a guy who can make plays even when double covered. Imagine what Vince's numbers would be with a guy like Moss where he could just throw up jump balls for TD's.

 

As for how we get those guys, since they are under contract--all have been rumored to be available, and I for one would be fine giving up a first round pick for a known commodity. Any of those guys would be more of an upgrade than we could get with a draft pick, and we have the money available to afford them.

 

Javon Walker anyone?

oh, and IMO Steve Smith is absolutely an elite wideout (but the Panthers would be idiots to consider moving him)
