I'm just saying, looking at this FA class, I don't see anything interesting.  He'll be as good as a bet as an overpaid injury prone Robinson.  

I'm not being a smart-ass, but I see several "interesting" receivers in this FA class, but he's one of the least as far as I'm concerned. But I agree with you that there will likely be better values than Robinson. 

This FA class has its injury histories,  that's for sure.  It has so many that teams may just overlook common fiscal sense and pay high prices anyway. Usually you'd think that injury histories would mute the market for a guy. I just hope we aren't one of the ones paying a premium.  

That being said,  Donte Moncrief is big,  fast and talented, as is the rawer Terrelle Pryor.  Marquise Lee has the ability to lead a team in receiving.  He has sneaky WR1 upside.  Really,  I think that they all do (as far as leading a team in receiving).  I'm less intrigued with Paul Richardson or John Brown, but they could come in and tear it up (provided they can stay on the field).  I really don't want either Brown though.

Quick clarification: John Brown is glass, Jaron Brown is totally formidable IMO.  I like Moncrief but even with Luck, he just didn't have that extra push.  I'd be down for him but he has a good deal to prove.

Terrelle is rawer, but he has more potential. I keep going back to his 1000 yard season. Moncrief has never had a 1000 receiving yards. Pryor did it with a pretty bad QB situation. He has the juice. In our offense all he has to do is be a vertical threat like Ginn. If he can be that he can have a major impact on our offense. Just something about his size and speed that has me intrigued especially with Cam's deep ball passing ability.

And the key thing with Pryor is he could come cheap. We have to jump on that.

It's not really that he's glass,  but that sickle cell trait doesn't seem to be a joke.

If you sign jaron brown, would need to sign another vet as well. He is a proven deep threat 

We have a small burner already with Byrd. Why sign a similar player?

Pryor is fast, but he also brings a different element because of his size.

Whether he has more potential is debatable,  but I wouldn't have a problem if we'd pick Pryor over Crief. I want both actually,  but that probably ain't happening.

Christian Kirk is Stephon Diggsesque. Get him...you see the crossings routes Diggs is running today. Nobody can keep up with him. Easy throw and catch....

Doubt we draft another WR considering we are already young at the position. Not really a #1 WR in this draft anyway. Maybe Ridley has that potential, other than that it is #2/#3 type WR's.

Oh I was just responding to another poster, Pryor is too big of a ? At WR, had a very poor year with Kirk cousins. Better options at WR, if Pryor is signed would also like to bring another vet in
