Dorkington Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Yes those are facts. We can bring in plenty of receivers for depth without bringing in TO What is the question to which you feel TO is the answer? TO is one of the WRs out there that we could look at. I'm not opposed to it, but I'm also not jumping up and down for it. Who else is out there? (serious question, I don't know who's out there, and if they'd be better or worse) But the question is... We need WR depth, who can we bring in to shore up depth, and possibly be a deep threat? TO is *one* answer. Is he *the* answer? No clue. I imagine Nix/Chan knows more than I would.

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 When Buddy dealt Evans, he made a point of saying how he was interested in guys on the way up. If he thought Evans was on his way downhill, I don't think he'll be calling up TO. Fair point. But we do need SOMEONE to be the number 2. Brad Smith maybe? CJ Spiller? We have people who can do it, but not at their intended position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Would you purposely give yourself cancer? And how exactly was he cancer when he was here last? How exactly was he cancer in Cincy last year when he was the best player on their offense? Or do you just like stating cliche things with no substance behind it? When Buddy dealt Evans, he made a point of saying how he was interested in guys on the way up. If he thought Evans was on his way downhill, I don't think he'll be calling up TO. When they dealt Evans we had 3 other healthy WR's with upside, it was preseason, no one expected us to be 4-1 and contending for the division title and playoffs, etc... Today is very different than then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Blizzard Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 If we need to bring in some help, why not give T.O. a tryout? It would only be a one-year contract anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 As much as I hate to say it, TO kind of fits of formula for sucess. He's a former star, coming off an injury, who we can pick up dirt cheap. Even if you can debate Merriman's worth, you really can't object to the way that Barnett has been playing. Right now we're the kind of team which makes these kind of players work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 TO would be a welcome addition...assuming he's healthy enough to play. Odds are we're drafting a wr next year anyway. We're sitting a 4-1 with very weak wr depth. Bring him in on another 1 year deal so we can stay strong on that side of the ball. We're not gonna get some all star wr, but we'll get a guy say what you want about him always comes to play on Sundays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) no he would not be. Yeah cause we're so deep at wr and couldn't use the help I dunno about you but I kinda like this winning games thing and could get used to it, and any help we can get to continue to do so would be a welcome addition. Unless you really think Ruvel Martin can contribute to sustained offensive success Edited October 9, 2011 by Stealth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Like A Mofo Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Unless you really think Ruvel Martin can contribute to sustained offensive success Oh, you mean more false starts, etc? Remember that T.O. was here BEFORE Gailey....I think under Gailey things would be different. Plus this is Fitz's team now. The culture around this team is much different. T.O would only help at this point. The Bills were exploited a little at WR today. a nice group, but not against elite corners.

5 Wide Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I vote for Aiken, he does have down the field ability. (4.45 speed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you really think Ruvel Martin can contribute to sustained offensive success Really? The dude is a talent no doubt, but he is a 37 year old still recovering from a torn ACL head case and lockerroom cancer. Yeah that's exactly what this team needs.

West End Stench Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I like T.O., but he is the complete opposite of what this team is trying to accomplish. If he's not signed by December, maybe give him a look to give us that extra push into the playoffs. But we're winning right now so I don't think his services are needed.

Mr. WEO Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 What happened to"we're deep at WR"? Anyway, we have Johnson, Nelson, Roosevelt, smith at WR. And isn't Spiller supposed to line up at WR someday before he leaves the league? TO is a horrible idea. He's old, injured an has admitted that he,s a month away from being in shape.
