(they talk about Crosby earlier in the video but it's linked to the Brown section)

I would be more comfortable doing it if we didn't have to pay Olave, but two receivers making $30 million a year seems steep.

Our guy Louis Riddick talking about it on ESPN in the video. I would think AJ would be open to coming here since he had some success with Moore and the problems he's had in Philadelphia cropped up after he left.

Pick wise, something like a DK Metcalf haul wouldn't be too bad. He went for a 2nd and 7th and both are the same age with similar production.

No. Hell no! Dude's a head case, and receivers rarely make a dominant impact for more than 5 years or so. Mike Evans' are few and far between

That dude laid up in one of the biggest games of his career.
For what ever reason, at that stage in life and where the team is No Way.
Better to find new blood.


Its like trading for Bobby Hebert. Dude couldnt win with the best Defense in the league also Sat out one of their prime years.

No. No. No. No.

I would. People on here bitching about our lack of talent at WR but also dont want a proven #1 that had great success with Kellen Moore.

Brown would instantly fix our need at WR.

I don't mind the idea of having AJ Brown on the team, but I extremely dislike the idea of giving up any draft picks in the first two days of the draft to get him.

This team needs young talent on rookie contracts more than it needs AJ Brown.

We don't need a WR1 with Olave. We need a strong 2/3 option which can organically happen with a draft pick. such as a chris bell.

I'd give a 4th.

He's familiar with Kellen's offense and a WR of his caliber would help Shough.

I believe his lack of effort was because of his coaching staff.

I would. He’s a good dude that would benefit from being in a smaller market. Could get him for a bargain also

Not with that contract he got from Philly plus we have to pay Olave. Hard pass.

No shot. The worst thing on an NFL roster is a receiver that has started the aging process, losing a step, yet still thinks he’s Gods gift to football and demands the ball constantly. Especially for a newer QB.

My personal feeling is no way. But because Moore has coached and dealt with Brown, if we did get him I would not be upset for that reason.

Would rather sign a solid #2. This is a loaded fa class for wr2's

The issue is will they be paid like 1s?

I’d trade a third after the draft is over if Philly eats a big chunk of his salary so he doesn’t cost much on our cap.

Similar to what the cowboys did last year for Pickens. But we’d have him under contract for years at a reduced cost. And that’s only if one of the higher rated receivers aren’t there in the 2nd.

But I think he’s traded before the draft for a 2nd and Philly eats some of the salary. Lots of you are sleeping on him, Hurts is pretty bad throwing the ball.
