Greg Jennings should go to AFC East. #Dolphins make most

sense, but other three teams could show interest.

@ GregJennings thank you for the last couple years. It's been

great having u in MN!

[rmoneyg35]

He would be a decent 2 for the right price. He had a rookie QB and no other WRs and RBs this season and a bad QB corp last season. He could surprise us.

Look who his QB's were in Minnesota too

[CarolinaNCSU]

Well this thread is one long Twitter keyword search

[Zaximus]

He's someone that is known.... which means probably no chance of coming here.

[Soul Rebel]

Could be an excellent grab on a 2 yr deal.  I just wonder what his salary expectations are.  There are three tiers of WRs left on the FA market:

 

Tier A - too rich for our blood: Crabtree, Stevie Johnson

 

Tier B - fit into our budget: Moore, Nicks, Shorts

 

Tier C - Jarrett Boykin budget: just about everyone else 

 

I'd like to think that Jennings fits into tier B, but I also could see a team overpaying and putting him just out of our desired salary.

 

Sucks, because he would be a great veteran fit between Benji, a rookie and Philly.  Would give Cam a WR that does well, what the others don't. 2-yr deal, and he can mentor our guys for the next couple of seasons, while being a solid #2 option.

Why do you always leave Ginn out?

Crabtree is NOT a tier 1 WR.

He has been mediocre his whole career and is now coming off an acl tear. No way I would give him anywhere near a big contract.

Agree that he isn't a tier 1 WR.  I never said he was.

 

I was saying that, of the current WRs on the free agent market, he falls in tier "A", which is "too rich for our blood".  I just think of the WRs left on the market, that he could still fetch a decent amount of coin, and will be priced out of what DG is willing to offer.

 

Crabtree is nowhere near a tier 1 WR.  He's a decent #2, with an injury history, and hasn't lived up to his potetial coming out of TT.

 

 Also, the ACL tear was two years ago, and he put up decent numbers with a mediocre QB in 2014. He put up 700 yards and 4 TDs with Crapernick throwing to him.  Decent WR2 stats, IMO.

[Wolfcop]

If we could bring in a Crabtree-type on a reasonable deal, we could save a draft pick to concentrate on OL, RB, and defense. He would be a good #2.

Gotcha.

 

Thought you were saying he was a top WR by having him in Tier A.....I see that you were just breaking them by what you thought they would cost.

 

I agree wth you that he is decent....but is nowhere near worth what someone will pay him.
