look, I don't have anything in particular against Mooney; he just doesn't move the needle for me, either statistically or on the little tape I've seen. Plus, he's just been pretty inconsistent. He looks like a reclamation project, a la josh Gordon/Kelvin Benjamin/insert another JAG paycheck collector, and personally, I'm completely over that route.
I would rather spend a little more (up to, but not necessarily, say $20 million/yr) and get an actual proven WR than sign yet another giant-ass ? mark at a position of critical need, that's all.
You like Mooney, and I don't. We can just agree to disagree on this guy, and move the eff on.
That's fine.
I prefer Ridley and Hollywood to Mooney, by a bit.
My issue is I don't want to see another offseason where we add no one good and then cross our fingers that a rookie is the answer.
Our hit rate on the drafted WRs before Rice was awful. [Reply]

You can do that without throwing $10M+ at guys who BARELY have a 1000 yard season to their names, and have done fuck all with the rest of their career. [Reply]

We're likely trading an all-world CB because of $$$.
If we spend half of what we'd need to keep LJ on some slapdick WR, that's fucking negligent.
