With Torrey's release, you have to think we sign an impact WR this weekend. I mean I like the idea of bring in guys to compete and the best guys win but Shanny has to have that one impact WR.

I would be happy about getting Jackson, getting rid of Smith did not make this team better so I am not happy about it.

Lynch should better know what he is doing.
To me, cutting Torrey is absolutely unnecessary, almost a stupid move.
We don't know the details but he may have asked out too...minutes before FA started.
open up another hole right before FA is not a good idea.
It's not a great idea to create a new hole, for sure. Unless they already have itfilled in
Gabriel and DJax. They'll be cheaper too.

Torrey was always a one trick pony and he isn't even fast enough for that trick anymore, i hated the signing and glad to see him go. way over paid for him.

Didn't hurt either. He was unproductive and making 8 mill a year. If anything he hurt the team. Look at his production, if you wanna call it that.

Gabriel is a restricted free agent with a 2nd round tender. Not happening.
Desean Jackson is expected to look for $10 to $12 mil and wants a team with an established QB. Also not happening.

What about Britt as that big bodied WR and DJax as the speedster with Kerley working the slot.

It hurts if they don't get someone as good as him to replace him.

267 yards receiving last year...we could throw out an undrafted rookie F/A and get him to match that production easy.

DeSean Jackson is 30 years old. Let's be realistic here. Brandon Marshall won't even sniff that price range and he's a much more productive WR.

I know right. Who are we going to get to catch those 20 receptions he had last year?
Hell Rod Streater had 18 receptions and didnt even start.

My guess too. Seems like we are in for a big signing once FA starts.
