Braylon Edwards

1. Would he be an upgrade from Naanee? and 2. How cheap can you get him for now?

1- significant upgrade imo

2- He had a 1 yr $1 Million dollar deal with a $2.4 Million bonus if he tallied 90 catches and made the Pro Bowl. Not too expensive imo.

Plus he has a "name", which means opponents would respect him on the field. I say try to give him one year this offseason just like you did with Shockey, and see if he can behave.

If the Panthers pay Shockey with a new contract, that might make them more appealing for someone like Edwards that's trying to resurrect a career, lol.

^ I agree. Not saying Braylon should be our 1st choice WR to bring in but he should be considered.

Btw I love Naanee, he blocks & does all the little things well but when it comes the catching the ball(his job), he kinda sucks... yeah he's gotten better but he just moved from bad to ok.

To me our receivers are Smitty(fantastic), Gettis(potentially explosive), Lafell(has potential to be really good).

If we get another guy, like Braylon, who could go deep, we can move Steve more freely around the field.(like playing more in the slot)

Having 4 really good receivers along with 2 security blanket TEs would complete our offense along with double trouble.

ps. I would prefer/love a receiver who could return punts as AE is awful.

:eek:

I don't know why that is such a shock. We have no idea how Gettis will do when he gets back, and when he was a rookie, practically half his yards and TD's came against the 49ers, who had the worst secondary in the league. I hope he comes back and tears it up and runs 9's all day so Cam can air it out like Madden, but there are a lot of people here who have the guy on a pedestal and I don't understand it.

The shock is because I'd rather have Dwayne Jarrett back than Naanee. Jarrett might have had the same problem in not getting separation but at least he caught the ball when it was thrown to him.
