    Just got cut by the Eagles. In my option he would be the perfect option in the slot for us. Sure handed, quick and an excellent route runner. He has starting experience on the outside should Cotch or Braylon miss any time with injuries as well. If we picked him up it would give us so much flexibility in the draft it would be awesome! He's had a few injuries the last couple years so he'd likely come cheap, continuing the low risk, high reward mentality we seem to be going with this year in FA due to the final 4 restrictions....thoughts?

    He's white. He could be the next Wayne Chrebet.

    I always liked Kevin Curtis as a slot receiver, but he's had some injury trouble recently. I wouldn't be too upset with the move, but he has very limited upside for us at his age and with the injuries. I'd rather fill the need in the draft.

    His recent injury history doesn't sound too promising.

    He would be a good fit in the slot, some concern coming off the injury though. Tanny will give a look, he really values having all needs addressed going into the draft.

    My prediction is he goes chicago to be with Martz

    LOL. He only needs one more season to reach Wayne's retirement age. Well, half a season anyway.

    He's always injured. Might as well bring in LC. At least he knows the offense.

    The Eagles dont make mistakes, if they cut him, then he's no good. I hope we don't sign LC again. He's a big pain in the ass, big mouth, always complaining, gets banged up and while he's tough, he does not make the tough catches. His act has gotten old to me. Go join your buddy in Miami. That's right, Parcells was smart enough to not sign him last year. And you wonder why teams like the Bengals are a lousy orginization year after year. We need a Santana Moss type player, lets find one in the draft.

    He wouldnt be a bad choice for the slot. But he is coming off an injury.

    Never heard of him.

    And just because we signed one injury prone player in Brodney Pool doesn't mean we should be on the lookout for others. Most people here had reservations about Pool because of his injuries as well.

    And pick up whom? Bringing him in means another WR likely gets cut. If we draft a WR and keep Brad Smith, that's 4. That leaves us with one other spot, as I doubt we go into the season with 6 WRs on the active roster again. So, Clowney and Woodhead both get cut, which is fine, but if Curtis fails to stay healthy, we're going to be worse off than we started.
