I say pass on Holt, let's give the young WRs more playing time.

I totally agree

I agree. We've got two young WRs to develop, it doesn't make much sense to chase an aging WR who has clearly lost a step. We have other more pressing needs.


Two young Wrs that are more than likely going to be Taylor Jacobs redux, not to mention a shorty in Moss that is getting banged up, and ARE that is unreliable. Face it, Holt is an upgrade even with his age.

It would not hurt to bring him in and put him through a workout ? If he can still run and shows a good burst , make him an offer , if Holt signs and that does not motivate the other wr's , nothing will . I will assume that the young guys have shown enough good things if we do not make Holt an offer . The O-Line is still our #1 issue .

mark my words...despite the Jet's denial... Holt will be a Jet and be back with Coach Henry Ellard..perfect replacement for Coles

Holt's numbers were better than ARE's.

Not to mention that he has had 1,000 yrd season every yr except last. He has caught atleast 5 td's a yr mostly 7-10 every yr except last. If everyone is looking at last yr they are sadly mistaken to his talent.

He's definitly an upgrade over Thrash. I would cut Thrash...you know ...the guy who can only get 1 Td a yr if he's lucky. Bring in Holt and let the younger guys play. Holts aging. He is a #1 who would help out the team but I would use him sparingly and in certain packages to create mismatches. Atleast we would get more TD's perhaps and a true #1 until Kelly and Thomas step up and depth.

if the younger guys are going to play..there should be no touchs for Holt..
Moss and Cooley will still get the ball..hopefully the other guys will earn their
looks

and....if the younger guys don't show anything like last yr? what's our game plan? play the same WR's Moss, ARE, and Thrash. You all keep mentioning Cooley, keep in mind he's a TE not a WR. Yes he does catch the ball but he's not a #1 WR. So what's the game plan if Kelly and Thomas still are not getting open or running right routes?

It's been said it takes 2-3 yrs for WR's to become great. We need great now.

You're not going to develop the young guys if you keep putting them on the back burner. They need to play now. Sure there's a chance one or both doesn't work out, but you're never going to know unless you play them.
