    Don't forget that we have a connection to WR Bryant Johnson on this staff

    Wide Receivers Coach Tyke Tolbert was the WR coach in Arizona in 2003, the year he was drafted. Bryant Johnson was the Cardinals' first round pick. Anquan Boldin was their 2nd rounder. I read that Tolbert specifically picked Boldin and talked him up, but he also had a lot of good words for Johnson too. I wouldn't be surprised to see WR Bryant Johnson here on Friday morning.

    I do think that of all the Free agents available he would be the most likely WR to make a decent No2

        I wouldn't pass! He is a big WR (which we need) and would be a good #2 reciever. He never got a chance in Arizona behind Fitzgerald and Boldin

          I agree Mikey.. Jauron said they wanted to address WR in FA, and I have a feeling this is the guy they're targeting. Purely a guess though.

            If we can get him cheap I'd take him.

              He is by far and away the best candidate.

              He played at a cold weather college, he's 6ft3 and 216lbs and is only 26. Not a speedster but faster than some of the other guys being put forward.

                the guy just seems so average to me. he is a 1st round pick that never could be a starter.. he is a borderline bust in my mind. i am just not excited about him. i mean if he was a UDFA that had worked his way up, then i get it, but the guy was drafted to be a number 1 and ended up as a 500 yard a season slot receiver.

                  that being said.. i could be wrong about him.. i know he was behind 2 studs.. but they drafted fitz because they didnt think johnson could be the guy..

                  i have seen him play and clearly he has the skills, but i dont know. i have never just seen him look dominant. ever.

                    6 catches - season high in a game

                    80 yards - season high in a game

                    30 yards - longest catch of the year

                    2 tds - season total in tds.. wow.

                    boldin was out for 4 games and those are the best that he could do with fitz on the other side.. including a 1 catch for 5 yards game as a starter against seatle.

                    the guy blows the more i look at it.

                        I just had a thought... It's not out of the question the Bills are targeting both Johnson and Wilford?

                        Evans, Johnson, Wilford, Reed, Parrish, (R) Paul Hubbard would be a solid group... And not too expensive either. It would leave plenty of room to extend Evans.

                          actually.. this guy has never had a 100 yard game.. he has 9 career tds..

                          34 yards per game average for his career. 33 last year.

                          pass on this turd.. he is going to get paid for his "potential".

                          give me hackett.. at least he has had a few good games to show he has the ability too.. i will take the injury risk and high reward as opposed to a 1st round bust.

                              I'd rather have this guy than Hackett. At least he'll be on the field.
