I've been saying it for two weeks, our next WR is going to be Corey Bradford and he'll come on the very cheap....

I could have gone for 4/8 with Finneran, I wonder what we offered.

No kidding, that's not unreasonable at all.

I'm trying not to panic..

With every comparable WR that signs, Givens is watching money fly out the window. He should have taken the Texans deal. No way the Titans can come close to that.

***pats1*** · 03-13-2006, 07:40 PM

It looks like Givens will be coming back. So, that leaves us with...

1st WR - Branch
2nd WR - Givens
3rd WR - ?!?!?
Situational 4th WR - Brown (UFA)

WR/KR - Dwight (UFA)
WR/KR - Bethel
WR/KR - Childress (ERFA)
WR/KR - Z. Smith

McGrew, Musinski, Stone

Detroit was about the last place I was expecting Bradford to end up. I guess he isn't interested in actually getting on the field since Williams, Williams and Rogers are three very young first rounders on depth chart in front of him. Lions also have Troy Edwards, plus four other WR's on their roster, just what the heck do need Bradford for? Matt Millen is simply obsessed with WR's, it makes little sense unless the Lions have plans to trade one of their 'Big' three..

check out their roster

Great! If he's resigned from the Falcons, then we can sign him. Right?

Resign != Re-sign, people.
