Thank you. I think this front office is smart enough to not go after a guy like Bowe. Let someone else overpay for his inconsistent play.

How about if the Redskins give Malcolm Kelly another look IF and that is IF he is healthy. It could happen.

If he's truly healthy, I'd have no problem giving him a look in camp.

Explain why Bowe is a Red flag? And Inconsistent? Sorry friend but he produces with ANY QB throwing him the ball.

344 Catches and 35 tdS IN 5 years..

3 out of 5 years with 1000 yards

he's a top 10 WR

I'm not a huge fan of Bowe either. His effort is questionable at times. I might put him in the top 20 for WRs, but I think we can do better. He could be great, right now he's just good.

He is consistent and not a bad receiver, but we need more of a stretch the field, big play type. Bowe is a great red zone target. I think KC gave an indication when they went out first round and drafted another WR 1st round last year with that ability. I think Gaffney or Moss can play that same role Bowe plays on that team.

The type of receiver with that ability that I describe we need are in free agency this year: VJax(my preference), DJax, Stevie Johnson, Colston (when healthy, major risk for alot of money), and I think Reggie Wayne might still have some left in the tank.

A couple other guys who have some big play ability, but not as touted, Ted Ginn and Pierre Garcon...both have had decent seasons and could be under radar of the top teir guys.

No to Ginn but I agree with Garcon, he's a play maker

Even if he is it's only a matter of time before he's injured again.

Bowe is going to cost too much money wise. He's going to be looking for a big pay day. Someone who's really pressed for wr's (Stl) will overpay for what he's worth. Plus look at the history of free agent wr's. Does it really pan out? Randle El, B. Lloyd, Brandon Marshall, Benard Berrian, Anquan Boldin, Chad Johnson, Roy Williams, Sidney Rice...I could go on and on. We've got a guy in Hankerson that can be every bit as good or better than Bowe.

Unconfirmed reports that Kelly saw this, leapt from his couch in excitement and pulled his hamstring. He says he's day to day.

Since this turned partially into a WR thread, here's what I hope our priority list looks like with positives and negatives on a few key guys..

D. Jackson-Speed to burn, playmaker, game changer.. Attitude/maturity issues, do you want to give him a ton of $$ and hope he matures?

V. Jackson-Complete receiver minus game breaking speed.. Character questions, with 2 strikes do you risk that with yet another player?

Colston-V. Jackson clone without character questions.. Long term health concerns and he gets dropsies occasionally.

Bowe-Great red zone and possession guy.. Not top end speed and inconsistent effort.

S. Johnson-Has all the tools, occasionally puts them all together.. Hit and miss, seems like he has potential to be Portis like character-do we want that again?

P. Garcon-Young, productive, nice skill set.. Not sure if he's a product of the system, some drops.

R. Wayne-Career speaks for itself, pros pro.. Older, not a game breaker, does he fit long term plans..

Bringing it back to the original thread, any of these guys would be a major upgrade on Stallworth so if there's a question of one of them (or one of our existing top 4) vs. Stallworth, he's the odd man out.

I agree. As Matty said, we need someone who will scare defenses.

Love Mike Wallace, maybe the best on the list, but it gonna cost alot. With Brown and Sanders emerging in Pittsburg, could be easier to get though.
