Ok so this is in NO way me promoting grabbing these guys but given our WR group at the moment is:

Benjamin, Ginn, Funchess, Brown, Norwood/Bersin/Hill/Etc...

I can totally see us adding a talented rookie via the draft (Sharp, Doctson, Pharoh) but there's one thing it seems we like in each position group: A strong vet presence.  Ginn has been playing for a while but isn't the type that strikes me as a mentor type when it comes to routes and becoming a complete WR. 

So, if you had to choose between these 3, who would you go for?  They are all 34+ but it seems like they still have a year or two in the tank.  The other non-draft option would be a journeyman type in Hankerson, Mike Wallace, Andre Holmes, etc.

And I totally acknowledge we may go without a FA WR at all. 

edited bc I don't know how I forgot about Andre and what we're looking at in White.

Boldin is my top choice because he has played the position KB and Funch are learning and is high character man of the year winner.

White is a goon and would not be good for the young guys. Worst choice.

Don't know Colston's personality but he seems like a good vet guy. Quiet and maybe similar to Cotchery. He would be second choice.

To me it is a toss-up between Boldin and Colston. Which ever one is better in the slot would work for me.

Roddy White.  He is pissed at the Falcons and at Shanahan.      Gimme a pissed off,  highly motivated older WR,  over  the mellow older WR,  like Colston.

I believe White is going to have a much better season in '16,  than both Boldin and Colston.

He was terrible last year. Boldin was way better with Gabbert throwing the ball.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
