I'd take him cheap.

[General_Purr]

Id take him anyday.

 

Big long arms to ****** some Cam balls

 

Im down with that. Guy has made some incredible catches regardless of what anyone below me says with some negative tone.

[Ricky Spanish]

no thanks, I'm good.

[RoaringRiot]

Did he even play this past season?

Wasn't he injured the whole time?

[Ricky Spanish]

Does he ever play a full season?

Isn't he injured all the time?

 

fixed that for ya

I think this is a perfect storm for a Gettleman signing.  Very physically talented with some great hands.  Injuries have relegated him to being what DG coins as "NFL middleclass."  

 

Very similar to Hixon, but with more production and playmaking ability when healthy.

 

Plus he's a Gamecock, and regardless of what people feel about the real Carolina our players show out in the NFL.

[Fenrir]

If he's cheap, sign him up. 

[RoaringRiot]

The guys was making $8m a year. Why would anyone throw the "if he's cheap" line out there?

[countryboi]

he is not very good these days....I think injuries have robbed him of any game he has left

[Fenrir]

The guys was making $8m a year. Why would anyone throw the "if he's cheap" line out there?

 

Given that he was just released and has the "always injured" label attached to him, I would think he'd have to take a substantial paycut to stay around. 

[OneBadCat]

Considering Smitty is the only WR under contract I think it would be a decent gamble. 

[Clicheking]

Had one good year and has been stealing money ever since. No thanks

[TheMaulClaw]

Seattle didn't need him with Baldwin and Kearse developing the way they did.  Why pay a guy 8 million a year when you've hit the jack pot and have two guys on rookie contracts playing lights out football?  Seattle did the right thing.  They put him on the shelf and they won with cheap guys so Seattle virtually loses nothing with Rice gone.   Seattle is very deep at WR...it's ridiculous.
