I agree with this article. If not Golladay, there isn't another WR worth pursuing.

He didn't put up Jerry Rice numbers in a run oriented offense. I think he fits our team perfectly. He's big, strong, and a very good blocker. Now, the question is how much to get him?

Corey Davis is nowhere near the same level of player as Golloday. Davis would be the highest paid WR on our team and wouldn't even be the best on the team. I'm not even sure he’d be the second best.

I prefer this team either go all in on the WR which would be Golladay, or nothing at all and worry about that position in the draft. Golladay is truly the only legit number 1 available. I'm still intrigued by a guy like Corey Davis if you can get him at a good price, you'd still need to address WR early in the draft though. No more slot guys!
FA - Golladay or nothing at WR and focus on other positions of need Draft - WR and OL early if we don't get golladay If we do, OL, LB, or CB

Also a legit deep threat and a threat post catch as well Ie Fits a modern NFL offense perfectly

This pipe dream that we can get Golladay is a fairy tale. The team that's checking in between the seat cushions for loose change is going to out bid teams that actually have money? Don't see it happening. And how is Davis not better than Shepard or Slayton? One player can't stay healthy, the other can't be consistent. Corey Davis might not put the numbers up that attract potential teams, but you have to factor that he played on an offense that is designed around their modern day Earl Campbell.

Davis/Samuel just put a strain on the cap for just adding another #2.

I don't know where people are getting their information... Davis another #2. This idea that he's some deep threat #1 WR held back by the Titans offense is not backed by anything. Nobody is saying that outside a few fans on this board. We'll pay $13-14 million and still be in need of a true #1. You may be right that Golloday is priced out of our range, but signing someone whose production doesn't match his cost is not a smart alternative.

Probably the same place where people think Golladay was a realistic option. Davis is a good player, who won't cost an arm and a leg to sign. If he wants big money, you tell him thanks but no thanks. But, I would want to find out for myself. #1 receivers aren't cheap. Just like cornerbacks, you have to over pay to sign them. We don't have that option, we have to upgrade the position the best we can. And that starts with Davis and drafting a receiver.

That's a position you really need to see on an NFL field to evaluate, and we've used too much draft picks lately with little to show on that one. This draft seems packed with receivers, and that will likely be a continuing trend.

Newsflash Kenny Golladay would be the highest paid WR on this team as well. The only difference is with Corey Davis I'd have a higher chance of having him starting all 16 games. Some of you seem to forget that Golladay only played in 5 games last season, yet have no problem making him one of the highest paid receivers in the game.

An elite WR who played in 5 games, had 338 receiving yards and 2 TDs. While Corey Davis who you're referring to as just "another guy" had 945 yards in 12 games and 5 TDs, in a run first offense. Curtis Samuel is 5'11 who plays the slot, we already have Sterling Shepard, we need a guy over 6'0 receiver who can stretch the field and force defenses to have a safety over the top for fear that they might get burned by the deep ball if they don't double him up.

The communication in the secondary that we finally saw, after so many seasons of guys looking at each other as they were picked apart, was so refreshing. This would be the icing on the cake.

Golloday had a muscle strain, you people need need to come back to reality. Davis or any other player has just as much chance getting Injured playing for us.

Kenny Golladay isn't worth top-5 WR money, which is what he'll command in the open market and for the folks that don't know how much that is, it's at least $18 million a year. We're $3 million under the cap, in what "reality" do you think we can outbid teams like the Patriots and Dolphins, who have more cap space and still manage to stay under the cap.

In 4 years he has 2800 yards and 11 TD's. That is the definition of "just a guy"
And BTW he played 14 games last year, not 12.
He's the kind of guy who needs a great player (like AJ Brown) to get favorable coverage. Do we have anyone like that?

Kenny Golladay in 4 years has 3,068 yards and 21 TD. Guess he would also fall under your definition of "just a guy". Davis only started in 12 games, those 2 other games he was playing hurt. Let's not pretend that Kenny Golladay was playing with a bunch of scrubs. He benefited from Marvin Jones and they were arguably 1A and 1B.

Supply & Demand. With the FA market flooded at almost every position no one is getting pre-2020 contract offers. If Galloday was suppose to get $18mm/yr he will probably get $14-$15mm/yr now

If Galloday was suppose to get $18mm/yr he will probably get $14-$15mm/yr now I'm hoping that will be the case with most, but I think the high end players wont be affected much.. the real bargins will come from the slightly above to middle of the pack FA, they're the ones I suspect will feel it the most. I think Golladay will be fine, but I thought about what you're saying and I hope its true, and it very well could be.
