    Hey

    If Homes and Plax ripped Sanchez after having Eli and Big Ben for a QB what would drive say after having Rogers throwing to him the last few years? Seriously. Get the best blocking Big WR in the draft to block in the run game for the current Qb we have.

    I think even Eric Smith is more athletic than Driver right now, no way we sign him if we do I've lost all hope in Tanny.

    No more over the hill possession receivers please. Get a young under the radar up and coming wr via FA if possible and draft one we can develop.

    Jets haven't developed a good WR since Coles I think.

    What do you do when you sign Mason and Burress only to find out that 35 year old wideouts suck balls?

    You sign Donald Driver, of course.

    Exhibit A.
    This is what I want to rid this team off. We need a young WR to grow with Sanchez instead of these one year projects. I am not attacking you, I am actually attacking the FO, MT, Rex for having a similar mind set. It does not foster growth.

    At least plax can be used as a red zone threat. I only like him in that role. If we can bring back Braylon he can slide back in as the number 2 receiver. Kerley can play the slot and plax can be the 4th receiver/red zone threat.

    IF we signed him, I would assume he would be our #4 with Holmes, F/A (Braylon) or draft pick, Kerley, then Driver....I dont think we can underestimate how important having good locker room guys is, especially for Rex

    Do we have other more pressing needs at safety, olb, rt, absolutely. BUT a low cost signing that will have immediate dividends in the locker room is huge for this team coming off the disaster we just witnessed. I think it's important for Holmes to have a veteran WR to sort of babysit him at meetings and in the huddle, as sad as that sounds.

    Driver will be 37 next season. Nice player but probably not an investment I would make.

    Donald Driver can take Plax spot as the over the hill receiver across from Santonio

    I don't know what's more outright f'ing stupid, signing an over the hill WR that we don't need, or making signing an over the hill WR we don't need your number 1 wish as opposed to the positions we actually need to fix.

    Awesome! Another WR that can't get thrown to because we have no oline to create a run game or pass protect.

    I can't tell if you're joking or not. Plax and Holmes both have rings. Unless you are looking to have an all superbowl winning wr core.

    Why stop there? Go ahead and sign Hines Ward while you're at it
