Looks like they parted ways after his DWI http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18279091/cardinals-release-wr-michael-floyd-arrest-dui-charge He's subject to waivers so doubt he'd fall to us but would you go after him? As he's set to be an UFA after this season.

He was great at ND but hasn't lived up to expectations in the NFL.

I'd bring him into camp if he's available in the off season and see if the change of scenery helps, but for this season there's no point.

No

Come spring, there will be 2 dozen plus vet receivers to pick from...if you want that option.

He'd be worthless to use unless we all of the sudden have someone who's willing to throw him the ball, especially this year where our playoff hopes are all but gone.

I think we'd be better off spending our resources on QB/OL/DL/S before we try to get toys.

I'm just weary that Woods will be back next year so like to find someone that could be a viable replacement.

Did someone wake him up behind the wheel to tell him he was cut?

I'm not sure that replacing Robert Woods 40.15 yards per game is going to be that difficult. Don't get me wrong, I really like the guy and think he's a good receiver but we're just not able to use him properly. It goes back to needing someone to get him the ball first, that should be our main concern. I think until we get that fixed, the other skill positions just don't matter as much as they do for most teams with capable QBs.

Needs to clean himself up, and put football aside for a while.

He was an amazing college football player. One of my favorite Irish players ever.

But bringing him here with no QB to throw to him means we will not be at the top of his list.

Tyrod just needs to throw him a bottle of Jack and he's all set.

Seriously, he doesn't need football right now.

He had some drinking issues in college too. He needs some help. I hope he gets it.

The Bills could try and become the leagues most dominant and delicate WR corps if they got him and Gordon next offseason

Reminds me of Jericho Kotchery. I hope things turn out better for him.

Good thing we didn't feel like we could use help at WR. We don't need a criminal like that in the AFC East. Oh wait...

When I saw the thread, my first thought was that if anyone could square him away it would unfortunately be the Pats. Go figure.

How the hell does Whaley call Percy out of retirement but not put a claim in on Floyd?

You don't have to be so gloomy about it, we still have Kolby Listenbee in the pipe. He just had his second surgery as a rookie on IR and he'll be fresh as a daisy for 20 minutes or so next camp.

What Spikes do?

Hernandez has to be one of the biggest morons ever.

No ones ever good enough for this fanbase. In the meantime, almost everyone we drafted is on IR. Then we hang onto them years while they play 4 games a season. Because we have coaches that can't coach. And a GM that got extended for no reason. One Buffalo.
So what does the circus act do next year? I can see a really strong push for Romo, probably dumb enough to give a 1st or 2nd for him. But imagine the hype and publicity. Then add a new coach, and Russ has his cigar lit again. And Terry doesn't have a ****ing clue.
Granted I think Rex and his brother are useless, but this team is run by a media hawk who knows nothing about football.
