Default Some Info on possible Denver Targets at WR:

http://www.footballoutsiders.com/200...scramble/3639/

Some other good info on upcoming FA.

Terrell Owens

Al: Denver is the early favorite, which means they won’t be Owens’ final resting place in 2006. There isn’t a team in the league, this side of Indianapolis, that couldn’t use TO’s talents at wide receiver. But there aren’t likely many teams in the league willing to put up with his antics to try and take advantage of those talents. I’d love to see him in Oakland lining up opposite Randy Moss, but that team has too many needs on defense to spend any money on yet another potentially disgruntled big play receiver. Washington also makes a lot of sense, but they’ve publicly said they aren’t interested in Owens. You know Detroit is always on the look out for a new wide receiver, but if they’re not willing to spend an extra $500,000 a year to sign Mike Martz, they won’t shell out the money to bring in Owens.

I keep seeing Owens in a Kansas City uniform next season. For all of his failings, Herm Edwards always seemed to get along great with his players in New York. He seems like just the right coach to coax a solid year out of Owens. With Tony Gonzalez beginning to decline, Kansas City needs some new receiving threats to keep their high powered offense running. Owens could be just what they need to take Kansas City back into the playoffs in 2006.

Vivek: As evidenced by his meeting with the organization last week, Denver is TO’s first choice. And eventually TO will get what TO wants.

Antonio Bryant
Al: Bryant quietly had a nice year in Cleveland. The Browns will keep him to pair up with Braylon Edwards and form one of the best, young receiving duos in the league.

Vivek: Agreed. The Browns should keep Edwards, Bryant, and Reuben Droughns together to build on what momentum they got last year.

David Givens
Al: He stays in New England.

Vivek: He will get a long look from teams like the Redskins, but will re-sign with New England.


Joe Jurevicius
Al: This is who Carolina should go after to complement Steve Smith. The Panthers don’t need another gamebreaker to take some heat away from Smith. They need someone who can get open against single coverage and catch the ball whenever Jake Delhomme throws it his way. That’s Jurevicius. He’s caught 65 percent or more of balls thrown in his direction in three of his last four seasons. He’ll give Carolina a legitimate #2 wide receiver for the first time since their Super Bowl season.

Vivek: If Givens leaves the Patriots, Jurevicius would fit nicely in New England. They were in hot pursuit of Jurevicius a few years ago, but decided to sign Donald Hayes instead. The Patriots will not make that mistake again.

Antwaan Randle El

Al: If Wayne stays in Indianapolis, Randle El will likely be the best free agent wide receiver among those wide receivers who weren’t kicked off their teams halfway through last season. As such, he will be incredibly overpaid by one of the many teams in need of a legitimate #2 wide receiver. That sounds right up the Washington Redskins‘ alley to me.

Vivek: In Chicago, Randle El would have the chance to be a tremendous playmaker, both as a wideout and a kick returner. The Bears should make the Illinois native its top free agent target.

Reggie Wayne
Al: There’s no way Indianapolis lets Wayne go elsewhere.

Vivek: Indy.

Eric Moulds
Al: Cutting Moulds will save Buffalo $5.5 million under the cap. With Lee Evans and Josh Reed on the roster, Moulds’ time in Buffalo looks to be over. He should be able to find himself a nice payday on one of those teams looking for a #2 wide receiver. I already have Randle El going to Washington and Jurevicius in Carolina, so I’ll send Moulds to the Baltimore Ravens, who could use another veteran target for Kyle Boller to throw to.

Vivek: Cutting Moulds would save money, but the Bills are in good cap shape. They can afford to keep the veteran to help JP Losman.

RB:
Ricky Williams (trade bait)
Al: Williams isn’t going anywhere, he’ll stay in Miami. The dumbest trade rumor I’ve heard in a while involved the Texans dealing David Carr to Miami for Williams and a third round pick. Nowhere in the rumor does it explain why the Dolphins would trade a productive running back and a valuable draft pick for a quarterback who is owed over $8 million in 2006 and has never had a season with a quarterback rating over 85. Williams and Brown developed into an effective duo for Miami. The Dolphins are not going to give away quality depth for a mediocre quarterback.

Vivek: Another trade rumor has Ricky Williams going to Denver. Um, Tatum Bell and Mike Anderson? They looked pretty good to us. I think the team did pretty well. Imagine a roster with both Ricky Williams and Terrell Owens? Williams will stay put in Miami.



>>Antonio Bryant would be my first choice if he hits FA. If not then am I crazy for being interested in Charles Rogers from Detroit?
