    I don't put too much into where a player was picked in deciding if he's good or not. I posted the 1st round bust comment, because I know there'll be people thinking/saying he was a 1st round draft pick, he has to be good. If the Bills can get him for nothing or very cheap, let him come in and battle, but I'm seeing the trade Ragland for Dorsett talk and I think that's overpaying for him.

    Zay Jones is a super star.
    Shorts and Reilly are okay.

    Andre Holmes, Philly Brown drop too many passes - I can't stand it.
    Ross is invisible
    Streater is injured

    We need 1) a dependable route running possession receiver - Wes Welker type 2) Playmaker burner on the outside - Desean Jackson

    Those guys do get cut, so who knows.

    All depends if we're trying to win, still not sure what the objective is.

    No more WRs that can't catch please, please.

    I don't know the full situation and if they'd release him, but Allen Hurns sounds like someone to watch. Rotoworld says Jags might be trying to trade him. Wouldn't want to take on that contract (5 yrs/40 mil) even if we had the space, but if they do happen to release him, could be a name to watch.

    Of course, if we do have the cap room and they want to trade us a pick just to take his contract (a la Osweiler trade), I'd be OK with it.

    Both are competing for spots on deep WR corps and have earned praise in camp.
    Looks like he's available

    There is NO WAY the team goes into week one with this group without any pick ups.

    Thoughts?
    Sad to say, CIN hung on to U of Tenn rookie Josh Malone:

    I was hoping he would become available, but the Owner's 1st round draft pick, the historically injury-ridded speedster John Ross, injured his knee this Friday on his second play of the entire preseason. This guy is lining up to be a bag of glass, just like TE Tyler Eifert.

    So they had to hang on to Malone. He looked quite decent during preseason, and there was no way they could have got him to their PS.
