SOME OF MY EARLY THOUGHTS ABOUT WIDE RECEIVERS
This is by far the #1 priority because there are exactly zero out of six positions that we can count on as filled for more this year.
1. We should try to extend Branch before we decide what to offer Givens.
2. We should offer a third for Moulds, rather than wait for a bidding war
3. Reggie Wayne is worth more to others
4. Randel El would be a solid fit, since he returns punts. Givens or Randel El would be great. My suspicion is that Givens will get $5M a year from someone else. If we have Branch extended and Moulds, I would rather have Randel El.
5. We should re-sign Davis. We should be able to develop him. He has much more potential than Johnson, Sam or Childress.
6. We should re-sign Dwight.
7. I think Brown is retiring.
8. We should be able to get #6 from Childress, Johnson and Sam.
BOTTOM LINE
There is a lot of work to do at wide receiver. However a trade, a free agent pick up, and a couple of minor re-signs should do the job.
