Brandon Marshall is a talented WR, but he has some off the field issues that are a Red Flagexactly. Only a matter of time before he gets himself into some serious trouble.

Marshall is up there w/the best, he's a notch above Boldin IMO & he's really just hitting stride. But, there are the external issues.

Any team would have to consider a reasonable deal, especially if Denver can't get the price they want & they reduce their offer. Still, I think it's time we live w/what we have as others have said. Just spent a ton of $ on a guy that is dominant but has a history of anger problems. Don't think it would be prudent to do that on the other side of the ball as well.

Offer them something decent, maybe two thirds, and stay pat. Maybe up to a 2nd. He would instantly be our #1WR. Personally, I think by opening day we see Moss at 1, Thomas or Kelly at 2, and ARE in the slot.

As they said on NFL radio last night. There's a reason Pittsburgh, who didn't have any WRs at the time, let ARE go pretty easily.

In a nutshell that shows you how Pitt operates & why they're successful; they let Plax & ARE go & re upped w/Ward.

Not putting ARE down, but they realized he was more of a fan favorite/celebrity for his passes to Ward than he was a starting wr.

They are lucky to have gotten Santonio though...

Pittsburgh isn't good b/c of the WR's they have or have not. They are good b/c they have a solid defensive core of players (which we have) and a battle tested QB who knows what it takes to win (which we, to this point, have not). After this season we will know a little bit better about our QB situation and should be able to make a definitive move in one direction or another.

I say keep the picks for now...there will likely be some other star WR who will become available next offseason. Or maybe, and i know this is a hard pill to swallow for a lot of ppl here, our FO was right about one of our 3 2nd rd. picks last year.

no thanks. guy is a good wr, but also is batshit crazy. if we want to to blow some money or draft picks, it should be on someone for the OL. i say we keep our picks and hope for some real results from at least someone named williams, thomas, and/or kelly.

Keep the picks, we will need a LT to groom next yr and maybe a QB

I wasn't saying they're good because of their wr's. I'm saying they're good because of their overall approach to personel. I just used the wr's as an example of that. That solid core of defensive players is there because they haven't overspent on any one position area.
