True but I still think Rivera commands respect in a locker room. I have never been a huge Rivera fan but that is one thing I think he does better than most coaches. Then who is our number two? Cotchery? Everyone and their mamma is saying we need a speed receiver and I think if they wait those players will be gone. Speed Receivers are a commodity in the NFL. Imagine how many yards Benjamin would have gotten with a legitimate number two receiver opposite of him last season.

Eddie Royal for one is gone, Harvin is on the Patriot's Wish List, and Smith got 8 million which is only a million above where I just mentioned (not a big leap). I think that pretty much wraps up the players I was hopeful for. There are a few other names I forgot who but they are being mentioned with other teams. It looks like we are staying put with Bersin as our number 2 receiver for now.

Nope but by the time we get into FA everyone of a talent level we needed will be gone just like last year. At least last year we had the ability to say it was the cap room. Well this year we have some cap room to work with and could get more if some players restructure.

My truth is 5 to 7 million a year. We have not been mentioned in the same breathe as any WRs. Tedd Ginn was signed to return kicks/punts but not to be the number two receiver. You can not sign another Cotchery level player and then say you are helping Cam or getting him better weapons because most fans will laugh that off.

I am not talking about being big spenders but you have to spend money when you have it in sports. Even the teams that build through the draft will add players in FA. You act as if anyone who is questioning why we are letting good WRs walk away is wanting us to spend until the needle is on empty. See in my case you can get a solid number two receiver for 5 to 7 million a year which is not crazy money by no means.

A whole dollar? I think you need that truth so take it. I can not hold that truth in much more it is about to burst lol.

We won 7 games. SEVEN GAMES. You do realize that 7 is a losing season in the NFL correct? Staying put right now is the wrong choice especially in a FA class that is full or WAS full of WRs that fit that number 2 role. I bet you we end up with another Cotchery type of signing and wonder why Cam keeps getting coverage sacks next year. Cam gets sacked a lot because nobody is open. I see fans jump on the O-Line which was below average but a lot of times nobody was getting open. If you want to be a winner you do have to fill holes or at least attempt to. Look at what Seattle did giving Russell Graham. Indy is about to get Andre Johnson and got Gore as well. You have to get your QB weapons to improve the offense on this team. Our only weakness on offense last year was our number 19 overall passing game.
