So lets be real, its a given Ginn is going to be back right?... RIGHT?!?

[Frank Hollywood]

There's quite a few ways he doesn't return.

-If he commands more than vet minimum and gets it elsewhere

Getts doesn't and won't overpay. Other teams may.

-if we draft a returner/WR

We know what to expect out of Ginn as a receiver and it isn't much. This is a draft full of fast receivers. If gettle wants to build a new WR corps he could go the draft route for a returner instead of Ginn.

-A veteran returner/WR

There may be equal or even better prospects gettle has in mind.

not sure why this needed another thread

Exactly what i think.

Like 10 other dudes made this exact point in the other thread

[Byrdman4real]

If it makes too much sense, it won't happen.

That's your fortune cookie wisdom for today friends.

Well that's the military way lol

Ted Ginn come on down,the Pathers can use you.

I'm not a big fan of Ginn the WR (his alligator arms missed more than a few long passes), but his speed will keep defenses honest, open the middle for KB/Olsen, and oh yeah, no more Bersin returning punts.

 

 

Get it done.

I agree with the Eddie Royal comment.  He's in our price range and fills a WR and returner need in a much more upgraded fashion than Ginn.  Ginn wouldn't be terrible but we can do better. 

 

Royal is the WR I can realistically seeing DG target.  He becomes our 3rd option, we know we have a good PR on our hands, and then we don't need to force ourselves to draft a PR specialist that we have to bet on again.  This let's us just grab the best value out of a WR if one is the BPA at a pick.

I think there is one reason that you would not sign him---(playing Devil's advocate):

Even if he is cheap, a rookie is cheaper.  A rookie that has more upside.  Are we still filling gaps with 1-year contracts to free agency's misfits--and he would be considered damaged goods---or are we going to use that roster spot to develop young talent.  If Ginn is wearing a uniform, he is taking opportunity away from a young guy.

 

Having said that, the only way I bring Ginn back is as the #5 WR.

 

1. Benjamin

2. Rookie

3. Brown

4. Cotchery

5. Ginn

[WOW!!]

For vet minimum and to be a special teams ace with some offensive plays.

[Snake]

If I was Ginn I would be begging to come back for a shot at a SB.

Ginn was a much better WR for us than Cotchery. He had the same yards per game as Cotchery even though he was the #3, and 5 times as many TDs.

It makes a lot of sense to bring him back but Gettleman might have something else in mind at the KR position.
