    Can I just say ppl are over blowing the idea of DGB not having good hands. A lot of his drops should have been expected after missing a years worth of football action on game day.

    As for AJ if we plan on keeping a vet WR to help tutor the young guys then id rather have AJ over Douglas any day of the week. Other than that i really dont see a role for him at this point in his career.

    Definitely a bad sign.

    I'm more concerned about his route running etc

    He probably won't sign.

    This just seems like a visit to bring him in, get a physical and other preliminaries out of the way just in case something happens during TC or pre-season.

    I watched DGB specifically on all his plays his first game in (at stadium). His route running was beyond awful. To his credit, I watched the last game same way last season and he was much better but slow out of his breaks.

    I doubt he will evolve much more than a red zone target. He does get vertical well. I'm hoping MM8 has enough leadership skills to direct him in ways to get the most out of him. I'm not sure DGB has the smarts to do it himself.

    Bingo....A guy like Sharpe (if he can do it in pads/game play) will be MUCH more valuable for a guy like Mariota....An accurate, timing type of passer. Lets pray either he or Matthews become that go to guy, and we can use DGB as a mismatch in the red zone minimally.

    Joined this discussion late... but pass.

    Andre is done, sure he'd be a nice vet for the locker room.. but I'd prefer Wright, Matthews, DGB, Sharpe, McBride, and even Hunter to get snaps over Andre. Would of been interested in Boldin though, before he signed with DET.

    If one of our WRs go down for the year (**knocks on wood this doesn't happen**), Andre wouldn't be a bad mid-season signing IF he's still available then.

    We should absolutely sign him. Anyone who thinks otherwise is crazy. We all agree that he had a bad year last year right? Well, that bad year would have led our WR in receptions, 40 yards short on leading out team in yards. (100 yards more than 2nd) and tied for lead in TD's. That was his worst year playing with backup QB's! He would be a back up to DGB and help him tremendously. Tajae and Matthews on the other side. Cut Douglas and Hunter. It's a no brainer. He would only make vet min and even if it doesn't work out, cut in training camp.
