Torry Holt expected to be released

[wilfork is beastin']

Tra Thomas, Torry Holt will be released by Jaguars | Jacksonville.com

Going to get released by the Jags soon because they want to get younger. Think he's worth a look or would he turn out like Galloway? I personally wouldn't mind the team bringing him in as the 3rd reciever.

Re: Torry Holt

Should've signed him last season. Choosing Galloway over Holt was stupid. It's probably too late now.

It's like déjà vu all over again, 11 months later.

Re: Torry Holt

BB probably doesn't have any interest in him. If he did, he would have brought him into training camp last season. He'll probably go to Chicago (Martz) or Baltimore (no receivers aside from Mason and Heap).

Re: Torry Holt

Absolutely not. If we're bringing in someone through free agency, I would rather see Stallworth or Bryant added. Holt doesn't have anything left in the tank.

Is it that time of year already?

Forgot he was still in the league, actually.

Isn't somebody supposed to complain that every time some washed up player is released, we have a thread asking if we should pick him up? Maybe Ian can put in an automatic response since we're slacking.

Already covered

Does Holt have anything left. I say no to Holt. I say no to Stallworth. They don't have to get young at the position, but not on his last legs like Holt or one dimensional and injury prone like Stallworth.

Let's build this team with players under 30 years of age.

We've got to be able to do better than Torry F'ing Holt.

What if we can get Horry Tolt?

What if we can get Horry Tolt?

If he exists, he probably would catch more passes than Aiken did this season.

 

[BennyBledsoe]

I don't think Galloway and Holt are similar at all in terms of skillset. As far as I knew, Holt could do more than just run fast, otherwise, I doubt he'd have had some of those 100+ catch seasons he had with the Rams.

I am ALL for bringing back Stallworth. He seemed to be a WR that 'got it', not to mention he was solid in 07. Not really high on Holt, but I would love to bring in Donte.

Re: Torry Holt

why couldn't Holt do what Gaffney did?

Re: Torry Holt

Because he's old enough to remember V-E Day.

Re: Torry Holt

Holt's not done yet but hes not finishing here.

 

[jmt57]

He's the savvy veteran this team needs!

We need to get younger, he's old and slow!

There's no way this team is going anywhere unless we upgrade the position.

Forget that, trade picks for Vincent Jackson.

This team is too cheap, they'll never sign him.

Trade for him now before he becomes a free agent, this will put the Pats over the top!

Belichick is too stubborn, he'll never sign him.

He'll fit in perfectly.

He'll never learn the playbook and he's a bad fit for this offense.




Did I miss anything? Feel free to cut and paste the above debate, substituting another current player for Vincent Jackson in any future "let's sign this guy" debates this off-season, and add any other stereotypical comments I may have overlooked.
