    WR pick ups coming?

    Anyone hear of any decent WRs that will be / might be released when teams start paring down rosters? Any bubble players?

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

    Thoughts?

    Actually, thanks for asking however although I just completed my third dump of this morning I did not hit 13 lbs -- 6.1 + 2.8 + .9 = 9.8 lbs.

    The day is young however.

    Max McCaffrey in GB and Austin Carr in NE.

    McCaffrey is a big outside WR with speed to burn (4.36 40).
    Carr is a classic smaller slot WR who is quick with great hands and body control but lacks deep speed.

    Both are competing for spots on deep WR corps and have earned praise in camp.

    Yup, dump him, not worth it. Get that comp pick back.

    Shorts needs to see more action, I'd rather have him than Holmes, plus we may get the comp if they're smart enough to dump the other two.

    I haven't been paying close enough attention to anybody else's camp to offer anybody up, I'll have to wait to see what comes through when cuts are made.

    Re: WR pick ups coming?

    Dorsett has been a disappointment and never turned out to be that "deep threat" with the Colts (51 rec. 3 TD's) and now is in a 3 way battle for the 3rd WR spot. Add to it he's had foot problems that caused him to miss 6 games the last 2 seasons. He has also suffered 2 hamstring injuries since minicamp. I doubt that the speed he once had is still there and without that speed, at 5'10" he doesn't offer a big target for Taylor. First round bust.

    No need to go all Spiked on us with the big, bold font.

    I'm sure there is some off-the-radar WR that will get surprise waived in final cuts that they can get.

    1st round perceived busts are what the Patriots love to pick up. is he a bust as a 4th rounder without 1st round pressure on him? (assuming the Bills could score him for a 4th or later)

    Re: WR pick ups coming?

    I'm guessing at camp cuts, but if any of these names get released I think I'd take a look:
    Josh Boyce - Cleveland
    Justin Hunter - Pittsburgh
    Marlon Brown - Denver
    Michael Floyd - Minnesota
    Josh Huff - Tampa Bay

    All of those guys are 5th or lower on their teams depth charts per Ourlads.
    COMING SOON...
