Nicks, 25, could end up being the highest-paid player in what looks to be a pedestrian free-agent class (tight end Jimmy Graham, for instance, is going to be franchised by the Saints if he isn't extended), and a team acquiring the star receiver at the trade deadline would only owe him about $1.4M for the remainder of the season based on his $2.7M salary).

I think we have the best chance of locking him up long term in a trade scenario if we play decent down the stretch. Remember, his ENTIRE family just saw the Panthers destroy his team a few weeks ago live.

Nicks is not going to demand top dollar. There may be a bidding war, but the price will not be extraordinary. He is living off his past right now. Unless he gets back to mini-beast mode, he will be rather inexpensive.

Still don't want him. I want a potential #1. Nicks can help our WR corp, but he is not a #1 anymore. Pay him #2 money and I may change my mind.

I'd be more excited about the prospect if it was Victor Cruz and not Nicks.

But, like Zod said, we have players now that we need to pay big $$ to. If I had to choose though between JStew and Nicks being on our roster - I'd pick Nicks. If Giants didnt have Andre Brown coming back I'd love to just trade our banged up RB for their injury prone WR. But wouldn't happen.

    • You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out. 
    • So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB. 
    • All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
