Randle El is the receiver we need to pursue (#2 WR discussion - Merged)

1. Antonio Bryant = 69rec, 1009yds, 4td's
2.Randle El = 35rec, 558yds, 1td
3.Corey Bradford = 45rec, 697yds, 6tds
4. David Givens = 59rec, 738yds, 2tds
5. Ike Hillard = 35rec, 282yds, 1td
6. K.McCardell = 70rec, 917yds, 9tds
7. J.Jurevicius = 55rec, 694yds, 10tds
8. R.Caldwell = 28rec, 352yds 1td
9. = R.Wayne = 83rec, 1055yds, 5td
10. E.Moulds = 81rec, 816yds, 4tds

This isn't the order I want them to be our #2. Except for Moulds I just the UFA players.

What about trading Ramsey to the cards for Bryant Johnson.

If dallas gets T.O. and cuts K.Johnson, Should we sign him.

I would rather have any of these guys then Randle-El:

David Givens NE
Josh Reed Buf
Antonio Bryant Cle
Eric Moulds Buf
Kevin Johnson Det
Peerless Price Dal
Koren Robinson Min
David Boston Mia

Why are they better options, because almost every one of them has shown that they can produce at the NFL level. Something that Randle-el has never done. Cedric Wilson was the go to guy in the playoff game and had 80 less yards over the course of the season (which was Wilson's first in the system).



What makes him better than Patten??? Patten has had two 800 yard seasons and had 7 tds in one year. El has 7 tds in his career (excluding playoffs).

What is your evidence except that you "think" he is better. The Redskins need a producer at the #2.

Randle-El has bust written all over him.

Givens would be a good pickup but I don't think the Patriots are going to let him go considering that Brown is getting old they're going to want to keep him around. Josh Reed numbers are worse than Randle El's in there 4 year careers you keep saying about Antwaan 7 career tds what about Reeds 6 career tds? Antonio Bryant has some issues but he is a consistent reciever I just think Randle El fits our style more. Moulds is a great receiver but he is what 34 yrs old thats all we need is another 30+ receiver with Patten. Price had a couple good seasons in Buffalo but relied on single coverage because of Moulds Price has already proved that he can't hack it anymore See Atlanta and Dallas.I do like KRob he is a great special teams player and he could contirbute as a #3 receiver I just can't see him as a #2. and finally what has David Boston done since he left Arizona oh wait I know he has been hurt he can't even start for Miami.

As for Randle El I think he is the best choice to fit our style of offense how can you say he hasn't proved that he can play at an NFL level 4 years 162recs, 2,012yds,7tds granted they arent the best numbers but he has proven that he can be a #2 receiver and remember this is his first real year with significant playing time do to Plaxico Burress being in Pittsburgh.

Patten is a good receiver but just not a #2 receiver he was always a #3 receiver with New England , I think he fits us better as a #3 and he is getting old, Randle El has only been in the leauge 4 yrs and I think he can do a great job for us.

If dallas gets T.O. and cuts K.Johnson, Should we sign him.
HELL NO

I agree on Key. He is garbage. I would like to see the 'boys drop him but I don't want to see T.O. with the star.

I dont want him.......enough with the small ball

I don't see how the Steelers are going to let Randel El go, so we'll have to draft someone and have a vet compete with D. Patten.

I dont want him.......enough with the small ball
I agree, I do not want another small WR. I would like to see us get a bigger WR. Here are my choices, in no particular(SP) order.

A. Bryant - 6'2" - 188lbs. 4yrs exp. Last year where he got to be the #1 guy he had over 1,000 yards and 15 catches of 20+yards.

D. Givens - 6'0" - 212lbs. 4yrs exp.

K. Robinson - 6'1" - 205lbs. 5yrs exp. Also, could work on our special teams squads.

K. Washington - 6'3" - 216lbs. 3yrs exp.

Any one of these guys I would like to see play for us. Also, if you look, they are all young meaning that they wont be quick fixes, they will be here long term. And they are big WR size wise to help move the chains and be a target in the red zone.

What about trading Ramsey to the cards for Bryant Johnson.

I've mentioned this in another thread regarding one of the Arizona receivers. I don't think Dennis Green will part with any of his wideouts. Johnson, Fitzgerald and Boldin are the only thing the Cardinals have going for them. Plus, D. Green loves to throw the ball.

I wouldn't count on Arizona letting any of those guys go.

I'd only want AR-el if the following aren't available:
wayne (expensive and franchised, so not happening :/ )
curtis (RFA)
KR
draft S moss
givens

there are #2s with 800-1000 yards, so settling for someone that's a 600 yard WR just cause he's fast and can run a trick play is silly. I'd bring in 2-3 WRs though. Either curtis or KR, then on top of that try to draft a WR if and only if the right player is available and bring in a couple lowball guys with upside or old established guys (keenan, reche, etc). That way you could have 2 good WRs outside moss and depth that's good for more than 1 catch a game total.

didn't consider K washington or C Bradford... the texans J gaffney might be a good pickup too. I think curtis if possible is still the best option, and KR is a good pic too as long as you have a backup plan.
