No. Of the 3 games that all 3 of those guys were active (NYJ, MIA, WAS), DA started all 3 while LaFell started only 1 of the 3. That's if we're considering 'starts' a meaningful stat in the NFL offensive players for anything other than QBs, which it's not. Michael Williams 'started' 9 games. He sucks.Would you say Amendola is a starter on this Team? I like Danny as much as anyone, but if LaFell and JE were healthy last year, Danny would not have starts on his stat sheet in 2015.Is that a fair statement?

Well I'd rather have Floyd, I said I think he's good but he's already the 10th highest cap # for a WR and I don't think that his salary works at this point. Plus they'd have to pay him a likely monstrous amount of money to lower the cap - compare Floyd to Sanu and what kind of money do you think Floyd is looking for? I think he's good, but no I don't think they should trade for him and then pay him like he's Julio Jones or Dez Bryant.Fair retort but honestly answer this. The last quarter of the AFC Championship game, do you want Keeshan Martin.....that is Keeshan Matin on that last ditch drive for cryin out tears!!! and a very ineffective LaFell who demanded single coverage...... or Floyd? Answer honestly. Floyd and Gronk with JE underneath would maybe have been the difference.
We will never know if Floyd was even brought up. Maybe the Cards do see someone they want to move up for like a rumored QB (see Jimmy G we sought here) like a Cook, Prescott or Hackenburhg to back up Palmer as suggested and they need a #2 to get there. So now the curtain is pulled back on Floyd.

The 2nd rd cap slot # at NE's first pick is $727k, not sure where your $3m is coming from.
