There are a ton of them out there. If the Jags were to bring in one FA WR, even if it wasn't a true #1, who would you want? I am thinking there are going to be some decent options that won't break the bank.
Eric Decker? Hakeem Nicks? Golden Tate? Jacoby Jones? Jerome Simpson? Anquan Boldin? Julian Edelman? Kenny Britt? Jacoby Ford? James Jones? Jeremy Maclin?Josh Morgan? Kevin Ogletree? Emmanuel Sanders?
The only WR's I'd be comfortable with having here are Eric Decker, Julian Edelman, and of course, the camp guys.
Hah! Monty Brewster.. none of the above. You don't think ANY new blood on the WR corps would be worthwhile, even to create competition or depth? Its a flooded market this season which should drive prices down.

Did you read my post?
Eric decker or Jeremy maclin please.
Wouldn't mind seeing James Jones in a jag uni.

Maclin is a FA? Then yes, I would take him, Edelmen would be good also, but we kind of have that covered. If you aren't planning to draft a big outside guy, I think Britt is a good insurance policy on Blackmon.

Bingo. Bring in Maclin, especially since I'm just betting the market will be suppressed and Maclin may not be able to demand a massive contract. I think he could be quite the weapon for Jedd Fisch.
I saw a article that had Decker listed as a FA landing for us due to Short's injury concerns and Blackmon's problems. I wouldnt mind it finally get some size on the outside to go with the mid size technicians we already have.
No to James Jones he is a drop machine and insanely inconsistent.
No to Maclin we already have a speedy injury prone WR with great YAC ability (Shorts). He is really good but is likely going to want some cheddar and has had injury issues which is my same concern for Hakeem Nicks.

Kenny Britt a backup policy to Blackmon is hilarious. He is just a risk if not bigger than Blackmon
Maclin is the only one I want.
People that want Decker are oblivious to the Manning effect. Decker was a strong beneficiary to it.
I would take Maclin on a 1 yr prove it deal for 6 or 7 million. He's coming off of an injury and probably wants to show he could stay healthy and earn a big contract next year.
Decker is a good receiver but he is gonna get payed like a great receiver. He isn't worth it and would be an FA bust.
I'd take a chance on Riley Cooper to fill JB's spot while he is out.
I'm not a fan of big contracts for FA receivers. Too many busts and not many booms. Nicks says he wants to get paid. No thanks. Decker will be overpaid, IMO and he doesn't pull coverage his way/ get's open due to talent around him. No thanks.
Sanders is actually really intriguing due to his speed. Might be gettable. Edelman will likely be overpaid.
Boldin probably has 1 maybe 2 good years left in him - that's an interesting one to think about - doesn't really suit Caldwell's methods but he had his best season in 6 six years last year at 33y.o.
(1100+ yds rec - 7 TDs)
I think Brandon LaFell from the Panthers would be a good pick-up w/o breaking the bank. Cooper is intriguing as well - but doesn't inspire a ton of confidence for some reason and he may hold out for big bucks.
I'd look into LaFell, Sanders and Boldin (two year deal) if I were calling shots. I'd look into most of them - but I think these are some of the ones that may not get huge deals.

Exactly, had he not been injured last year he probably would have had another good year and then been able to bring in the benjamins, but he should look for a small 1-2 year deal to prove he still has it.
And to the manning effect of Decker, that's possibly true as well. He's still gonna make bank during FA for someone though.
If Edelman can be had without breaking the bank, id love to get him. Dude is a gamer. Very elusive and reliable. All around good athlete
The draft class is deep at WR. I'd prefer we draft a young guy and allow Jerry Sullivan develop him. None of the names on that list really intrigue me enough unless they can be had on a decent contract.
