Wes Welker

Wallace and Jennings are really the only options when looking at A-tier FA WRs.

And I'll be honest and say neither are likely legitimate options. Wallace is going to be in a massive bidding war and Jennings is pretty ancient for the reported numbers he wants.

I'd love some Gettlemagic to land Wallace, but with as many reported teams vying for his services, it'll be a tricky maneuver to pull off.

For a team that needs alot of help in a lot of places, many of you surely are quick to deny it. Like were too good for them or something lmao

It doesn't have anything to do with needs for me, it has to do with his age, contract and the fact that we have a damn near clone already on the roster in Steve Smith. If we're going to invest in a WR I'd far rather get a young, proven guy like Wallace, or a promising young guy in the draft with a rookie contract.

look man if hes gunna test the market, and if everyone has comes to the consensus that hes cheap, then why the hell not? The more talent the better. He doesnt have to be the answer to our reciever problem, bbut he could be part of it.

Im not even advocating the guy, its just funny how some people regardless of position will just say a stright no to a guy. Lol we suck. We need help. Beggers cant be choosers folks. And explainations as to why not to attain a player is better then "no".

But i agree with you man. Hes not the answer

You have to be choosy when you have as little cap space as we do, we're also looking to the future and that's not what Welker gives you.

He's one of my favorite players in the league, I just don't think he's a good fit here, now.

The problem is Wes Welker will not go cheap. That is the reason why he is testing the FA market in the first place.

    • If we lose tomorrow we’d have to sweep the Bucs in order to get into the playoffs. With a loss tomorrow the Bucs would then hold the tie breaker if we finished tied If we can’t split with NO then we sure as hell not sweeping Tampa It’s win or go home tomorrow in my eyes  Biggest game since 2017 playoff game imo  
    • Grok AI: No, there are no credible reports that the Carolina Hurricanes offered Jake Guentzel the same contract terms as Tampa Bay (7 years, $63 million total, $9 million AAV) before he signed with the Lightning. Reliable sources, including The Athletic, consistently reported that Carolina’s offer during negotiations was an eight-year deal worth $64 million ($8 million AAV). Guentzel did not accept it promptly, leading the Hurricanes to trade his negotiating rights to Tampa Bay on June 30, 2024, for a 2025 third-round pick. He then quickly signed the 7x$9M deal with the Lightning on July 1, 2024. Guentzel himself later reflected (in 2025 interviews) that staying in Carolina was his initial preference, but negotiations stalled and “didn’t work out,” with Tampa’s opportunity becoming a “no-brainer.” No reports from outlets like ESPN, NHL.com, or insiders (e.g., Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Frank Seravalli) indicate Carolina ever matched or offered the Lightning’s exact terms—total money, AAV, or length. The extra year was Carolina’s key advantage, but they reportedly stuck closer to $8M AAV and moved on when Guentzel explored options.
