Justin Gage

Notice LenDale played better when he wasn't on the team. Obviously wasn't distracted by the thought of food. :grrhee:

 

I'm not delusional to the point I think Gage could be Chad Johnson but it certainly isn't out of the realm of possibility he could be comparable to a healthy David Givens. In fact, Gage might be a good guy to extend before the season ends. I wouldn't give him Given's money but he is worth keeping IMO. Gage right now looks like a better keeper than Brandon Jones who we had high hopes for but he is dropping balls and also seems to get hurt quite a bit.

 

I don't know if I would want Gage back next season though. With Givens coming back.

 

we might as well go into this off-season assuming givens isn't coming back. AND why would we get rid of our most productive receiver who appears to have a pretty good rapport with our qb?

 

That's what the Titans always do, duh

 

If Gage goes screw the Titans.
Gage and Roydell both deserve to stay.
As far as I'm concerned Brandon Jones can go...
We need to revamp our whole receiving core

 

I think we should keep B. Jones for one more year. Mason didn't break out until his 4th year, and often this is true for WR (taking 3-4 years to become good).

 

Obviously Gage has a huge advantage over Givens, he can run and cut and Givens might not ever be decent again.

However what if Givens can make it back close to his pre-injury ability? Him and Gage both would be a couple of solid WRs. I'd still like to see us go after Berrian but my patience is wearing thin for Brandon Jones and even R. Williams to some extent (I'd rather have Berrian out there way more than Jones or Williams). I might be wrong but I don't see Davis being much either unless he can vastly improve his strength and even then I see him as a 4th WR who can return and not a major contributor. Who knows what P. Williams will bring, maybe nothing so whatever we get out of him is gravy.

The thing with Gage is he looks like he is becoming a solid NFL WR right now. We need guys who can play now. I'd be happy with two former Bears, Gage and Berrian as our #1 and #1 WRs.

 

So what's the difference between him and Bobby Wade?
