I prefer to just have guys who all have difference skill sets, but can all get open and catch the ball.  If you look at perhaps our best group of receivers ever (Smith, Moose, and Proehl in 2003/2004), all three complemented each other.  Smith could take a 10 yard slant to the house or burn you deep.  Moose could get physical with a defender, but still beat you deep when the opportunity arose, while Proehl was the consummate veteran with good hands and great route running.  Smith caught more balls, but either him or Moose could function as a "number one".  And in fact both did at some point in their career.  

Number one should be whomever is open.

I don't think that is what is meant by the #'s...but like I said their are many different views...

when looking at the list of FA WR's that was posted the other day, he was actually someone who stuck out to me.  not a guy that's going to demand a lot of money considering a lot of people will probably view him as a project, plus he didn't do much this past season

but... i think he could have potential as a #3 if we try to grab someone in the draft to pair with Funchess as our #1/2 combo.  he has great size, decent hands and the speed to break free.  i actually think he'd fill the hole that ginn left pretty well while also mixing in the Byrd/Samuel combo to blow the top off

plus, i have to imagine he'd be a guy that Cam would probably hit it off with.  lets be honest, the biggest negative effect that trading KB probably had on this offense was that the chemistry between him and Cam was off the charts.  it would be nice to see Cam having a receiver that he could just have fun with again

My exact thoughts when I made the thread.

Once again, I don't follow other teams too often.  I do remember seeing some serious highlights of Pryor in 2016.  For a guy that has been playing the position only a couple of years.  Not bad.   He seems pretty physical to me. 

Pryor most likely will end up with a one/two year deal to prove himself (again).   If he makes it through the first wave of free agency we might get him for a good price.  I still would rather target another top tier WR.

The more I think about it, I could get on board with this. Allen Robinson is my pipe dream signing, but why not Pryor as a backup plan? He will definitely be a much cheaper option than most others we'd look at. At 29 years old come June, it's now or never for him to step up and show he can be a legit WR in the NFL.

Pryor is alot better than the free agent scrub WRs that Panthers usually pick up lol 

No one is arguing that

After Landry and Robinson this FA pool is pretty awful.

I would take Watkins, Wallace and Crabtree over Pryor 

And Desean can still be cut
