I Always hear about how good of a back up he is.

he's a GREAT special teamer...ill never forget the story i heard about him...he had to wear a sheild on his helmet cause everytime he got downfield, he'd hit so hard, his contacts would fly out of his eyes...

but as a starter....not that good...

I think we should be considering Antonio Bryant. He played well down the stretch at the beginning of the season. His lack of numbers and is only due to the fact he's had around a million coaching and quarterback changes during his time with the team.

He is what we need IMO, a young guy who won't break the bank but does have good hands. If he's smart enough to pick up our system, I say give him a shot.

for me, Antonio Bryant is nothing spectacular...about 7 targets a week avg. caught 54% of what was targeted him. 14.8 yards per catch. 3 TDs on the year. :roll:

red zone...hmmm...targeted 11 times, 3 catches, 1 TD. you throw to who you can trust, esp. in important situations. out of 11 times he caught 3 and only one time could turn it into a TD.

i haven't watched him play much, but i know he talks a lot of smack that he can't really back up (not a fan of that). i asked some people in another forum who are browns fans about him, haven't heard back from them yet. i don't know if thats a good sign or what. but i do know that they are banking on the charlie frye/braylon edwards combo next year and are excited that they won't have to rely so much on bryant.

if i hear anything and we still care i will post it but going on what i have seen, there are better options out there.

Those are the good free agents I found for the end of the season. Who do you want to get? who do you think we could get? Please dont act like a falcon fan and say we can get alexander, brees and ect, be realistic.

Ken Dorsey ???? My mom has a stronger arm.

i don't think we need to look much beyond this list of WRs for next year. no need to draft one, lets save those spots for areas where there is no other real alternatives.

Antonio Bryant not crazy about him. see earlier comments

Antwaan Randle El has a lot of potential. beginning of the year there was a lot of excotement about him but he fizzled. i still think he could be good. also has worked as a QB. not a bad option to have, IMO.

Brandon Lloyd this guy can be great. he makes some really spectacular catches. he hasn't had the greatest of target/catches % but he has been playing for san fran (say what you will about our O-line, we aren't the 9ers, be thankful) noy crazy about this guy in the red zone, but then he plays for the 49ers. not great down there as a team anyway.

David Givens i like him...given more opps he could do great things. he would work well here, better situation than in NE i believe. he posted great numbers with Brady who spreads it around to everyone. not terrible in the redzone. i think he would fit in our program.

Joe Jurevicius a personal favorute, not the most consistent performer but the guy has some skills and has shown him self to be a real redzone and TD threat. 6'5" the guy is a very nice counter to the much shorter steve smith. btw he has 10 TDs on the year.

Keenan McCardell another nice threat. 9 TDs on the year well over 800 yards. 65% targets/recps just about as dangerous in the redzone as Vicius. downside, this is his 14th year. i won't discriminate if we can can get one or two good years out of him. age could make him a bargain.

Nate Burleson no no and a thousand times no.

Reggie Wayne dream on. he would come with far too hefty a pricetag

I agree... The only question is how we fit it in under the cap... I like SEVERAL of the ones you listed, and with the new CBA not being what many teams were hoping, we could see some more viable options added to that list..

I would like to see some more options. you can never have too many but i think that we have enough of a selection there. i think there will be more to choose from later on.

Does anyone have a good source for finding the $$ value of players?? I would like to find out these guys salary history. it might give us an idea of what the organization might do.
