Would you guys take a chance on him, nothing like signing hungry vets for the minimum who are trying to prove and re-establish themselves.

Count me in. The guy obviously feels he has something to prove. The more bodies at the WR position for training camp, the better.

Of course, why not sign a vet willing to play for minimum at a position of need?. Better to sign a player early; gives him more time to learn the playbook and the team more time to make a decision. If he's not worth keeping the only thing it cost you was one of 80 roster spots in training camp. But please, if that's the case, figure it out before week one rather than mid-season this year.

I think lazy is a better adjective than hungry for this guy. Raiders paid him almost a mill a catch. Wow.

If he's healthy, and hungry he's an upgrade over Patten who hasn't taken a snap in over a year.

Unless he doesn't have the mental makeup to play in this offense, can't hurt to work him out and see where he is physically.

I agree, with him its more about intrigue and seeing what he has left rather than excitement if he is signed to an offer.
