Would you be open to signing a former nemesis for a mid tier price?  I think here the kind of Sheppard level signing we need to make this offseason to give the wr core a bit of competition. Of course, I haven’t given up on Samuels but a challenge is needed in the field stretching department. That said, this isn’t even a discussion in finding a number 1 or 2 wr, this is just about finding competition for 3. Who know Gabriel I think still has room to grow and could become a 2.

additions need to be made.. what say you...

Yeah the Byrd is the wyrd. 

im all for bringing in a vet WR but it needs to be someone who can compete for one of the top two spots. 

^^^ This .. The guys we sign need to be starting quality competing for the top 2 spots at WR..

I certainly don't see him as any type of need,  just another body who probably wouldn't leapfrog Byrd (as Byrd has been here),  and certainly doesn't have the upside of Samuel. 

He’s a big play deep threat who Cam could do wonders with if they developed solid chemistry... like Ginn. He’s not the most talented deep threat available though so I frankly would only think of him as a fallback option. And I could see Byrd or Samuel being way better than him anyways. But I think he’d have a chance at being what we thought Shep could be last year.

      [The Athletic] Dane Brugler's 2025 7-round Mock Draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
