He is a "good" player, but not great. Better than Hartline but adding him would create a log-jam at WR. Especially if you consider Moore and Wallace as young guys with bright futures.

I don't see how he makes the Fins much better. We need a RB and TE before another "good" WR who has similar skill set to guys we already have

^^ I don't think we need a RB. I think either Ricky or Ronnie will be coming back. Not sure which one at the moment. I'm leaning towards Ricky since I think he could be cheaper to sign, had a more productive year last year and I think he fits better with Daniel Thomas in the Wildcat, Thomas I think would take the snap. Ricky was actually pretty effective out of the wildcat last year.

I would take Sims-Walker on board in a heartbeat.  He's got great size at 6'2'' 215 lbs.  His knee injury in 07 probably slowed down that 4.3 speed a little, but I highly doubt it's all gone, and I don't consider Moore and Wallace to have bright futures..they were both there merely for depth and if they had such bright futures, they would've seen the field a lot more.  Sims-Walker struggled being "the guy" in 2010, and if he was in Miami, he would have a much smaller role.  I fully welcome the idea of Marshall and Sims-Walker on the outside, Bess and Hartline in the slots (where they work better out of anyways) and then Gates in our "new 5 WR packages" to be the burner that stretches the field.  And you can have Wallace/Moore battle for the remaining spot and/or practice squad members..listen, we've complained about the WR position for years now, why not stock pile it?

I can't really believe I am saying this, but I think we are good at receiver right now and he wouldn't be worth the expense.  However, I certainly wouldn't be upset if he came to Miami because he is a very good player.

I'd grab him in a heartbeat.  It will be nearly impossible to double cover him with Brandon Marshall on the opposite side and Davonne Bess in the slot. 

If they pick him up, then let Hartline, Moore, Wallace and Gates battle it out for the two or three remaining spots.

Well then thats a major problem because Ronnie isn't anything special anymore and very average to maybe a poor player entering next season. Not to mention he never stays healthy.  And with what Ricky said after the season about our coaches, I doubt this franchise brings him back.

If we bring one of them back not only is it a mistake, it isn't good for this franchise

I wouldn't say we are "good" at WR. But I don't think Simms-Walker makes us better. He is on par with the Hartline's of the world, and I would rather spend the money elsewhere. Adding Simms-Walker doesn't improve our team. Doesn't improve our offense much. We have guys just like him already at a cheaper price.

Well a lot depends on Daniel Thomas. You think he is starter material or not? If he is, then Ricky is fine as a #2 back. You are way over estimating what Ricky said after the season. No one cares about that except you.

I see what you're saying, but if the price is right (I'm not sure what he makes/would be asking for, sorry lol ) why not bring him aboard?  In this day in age with incentive filled contracts, I'm sure they could figure something out to give our offense another weapon.  I disagree with your comparison to Hartline, I think he's faster and more of a threat than Hartline is on the outside.  Like I said, bringing in another option couldn't hurt..but of course the lock out will have to end in order for ANY of this to happen

ha ha ha, uh, I think the head coach, the assistants, and the GM cares. And maybe Henne and some of the other players he threw under the bus! If you don't think anyone cares your nuts.

Walker has had one good year in his life. The guy has been listed as "questionable" about 75% of the time the past two seasons it seems like. Never 100%. I don't think he is much better than Hartline. The guy is going to want big money and NOT an incentive filled contract, he wants a payday. This will probably be his best shot to get big money in his NFL-life

Fuck Ronnie in the ass with a big fat dildo. I would keep Ricky. He's cheap and he knows what the fuck is up. Not to mention he has a good work ethic.

can we stop turning every F'in post into something about the quarterback..it's pretty annoying

Not to say, but here we go again. We need a FUCKING quarterback !!! Henne had his time, fuck him with the same dildo that Ronnie pulled out. Give us Thiggy. Give us something............... Thanks for your input tubba, have a good one....................
