Would you guys be opposed to taking a flyer on this guy? Still only 25. Was drafted in the second round of the 2014 draft. Hasn’t really done anything since being drafted but he has tools to work with. Maybe we could revive him.

In his defense Denver has two massive target monsters at WR and no QB to determine if the depth chart is worth a shite.

If by flier you mean damn near minimium contract...his draft position alone warrants a look but I wouldn’t expect much. I would treat him like a scratch off.

Like lance Moore when he left or Willie Snead before he arrived. Funny what happens when playing w talent meets opportunity

Between Thomas and sanders getting 300 targets a year or playing with bad QBs, guy never really had a chance. Actually played pretty well to close out last season tho

Ran 4.39 at his pro day at 6’2” 215, 39” vert. Could be a big bodied slot guy w some burst

Exactly what I was thinking. Can’t helo but feel like Drew could make him better and realize his potential.

I remember the year he came out. He went from being a 5th round draft pick to a 2nd round draft pick based solely on his height and 40 time. He was never really a good receiver and evidently he still isn't. Pass.

I mean, he had 72 catches 1100 yards and 9 TDs in 12 games his JR year in the big 10 before coming out

Stuck behind two 1k yard receivers since then.

What’s the evidence he’s not a good receiver?

His stats don’t pop out so he’s automatically trash.

The guy has tools to work with definitely.

Give me Kendall Wright. He would thrive with Brees and fits the possession role we need

I just remember the draft stuff on him leading up to the Combine was round 5. After the Combine, round 2. Big guys who can run that fast are obviously tempting to teams. But he's had 4 years in the NFL and it looks like his early grade was closer to reality than his post-Combine grade.

Since we talking bout younger WR’s with potential...

What the hell happened to Dorial Green-Beckham? I remember I really wanted him in that draft too. Dude was a number 1 recruit coming out of HS. Talk about being a bust.

Guy seemed like he was going to be all-world.

I know he had some criminal charges related to weed in college. You wonder how much his off-the-field issues had to do with his lack of success.

Also remember seeing somebody say he was never that good. Said the competition he faced in High School was average and he dominated by being a 6’5 WR that can run a 4.4

So who knows.
