I'm curious as to who everyone would want to fill the void? It seems like it's taking a pretty clear path... he has to be a june 1st. designation financially. That frees up $6.9m. If Andre Johnson hits FA that's the guy I target. The rest of the guys aren't overly appealing. Crabtree doesn't really have enough speed. Demaryius isn't going anywhere, Dez isn't going anywhere, Cobb likely isn't going anywhere, Maclin is highly unlikely to leave.
Torrey Smith could definitely fit, I'd like that a fair amount. He has the speed to take off the top of defenses and off a down year might not break the bank like others. High character guy, Wallace's size.
Cecil Shorts is just too damn injury prone and not a speed guy. Kenny Britt has attitude issues. Nicks looks like a shell of himself and doesn't really seem to care. Reggie Wayne is done. I like Nate Washington but he's lost a step.
Right now I'd probably sign Torrey Smith and Shorts/Washington. Smith for around $6m I'd guess, and Shorts/Washington in that $3m range. We save off the top of my head close to $13m. Draft a big WR in the first couple rounds and you could argue we've upgraded. I don't think AJ would come here, he wants to win a championship, but if he wanted to comeback to his stomping grounds he'd be an amazing signing.
