Is that worth $10 million? Maybe to some teams. But not us, IMO. $6 million with some incentives that can take him to/near $10 million? I might be interested in that. But he just doesn't see himself as a WR 2/3. At least he didn't a year ago. And nothing has changed on the field to indicate he's more than that, IMO. He would help - no question. At least during Rice's possible suspension and Worthy's learning curve. But he's gonna have a learning curve of his own - has he ever played in a system that uses any of the Reid terminology? I can't recall him playing for a coach from the Reid tree. |

Personally, I think he's worth a $7-8m deal and would probably be of more use than MVS was. It's not something we're super likely to consider so kind of a mute point. For this year only, I'd probably be willing to give him a $10m incentive driven deal to secure a stronger WR room for a 3-peat run.

No way I'd pay OBJ that. It's just a waste. You're not getting 10 million in value, so just do something else.

He probably has a Rice trajectory where he spends most of the year as a manufactured touch guy. |

Ride Toney and Moore til they break or have mental breakdowns if you need any extra yardage on the side from your 5th WR. Get what you can from Watson.
Don't set 10 million on fire. |

Then the rest of the season he gives you 250 yards (presuming that's when Rice is back and Worthy has caught up). So a 500 yard pro-rated second half of the season at a WR3/4 spot. So you get 650 yards but it's more heavily weighted to when you needed him. Then in the playoffs he has 1 big game as WR3 where some mismatches underneath make him particularly difficult to deal with. That's not worth $10 million. But it's probably worth $8 million? He has value. And could maybe prove to have more value than $8 million if we have another blown tire in the WR room due to inexperience in the offense and Rice's Sammy Hagar moment. |

I'd still try to bandage up and get that from Moore Toney Watson and save that 10 million. |

Rumor from the free agency thread is that Chris Godwin could be a post June 1 cut. Interested? EDIT: wrong thread my bad.

For a guy who's meant a lot to that organization and who's bounced back from injury nicely (an injury he suffered right as he was about to enter FA the first time), that's an awfully nasty way to treat him. If you were gonna cut him, you could've done it prior to FA and then restructured some deals to cover the June 1 split. Or, I believe, you can still do a June 1 designation and let the guy pursue a new deal when there's still money out there to be made. I just don't think they'd do him like that... |

Reid and Nagy kinda had to figure Rice out last year, and find the way to take advantage of his skills and what he was good at. Worthy, to me, is a better route runner than Rice, and Andy knows how to use speed like his, and he will probably plug into Tyreek's routes. That should make the transition easier. |
