All I said is 800 yards can be replaced. pretty much by any of the top FA WR's. Hell, I wouldn't bet against one the guys we already have.
Which top FA WRs?
There is really only one "top FA" WRs available this year - Watkins. And he's going to get a decent sized contract. So it kind of defeats the purpose to cut Dez because he makes too much for what we get out of him and then drop another fairly large contract on a guy who might match what he gave us.
The other guy would be Pryor and frankly, he's an interesting name to me but was pretty shoddy last year playing with a good QB.
I looked at Spotrac's FA WR list. Of the entire list, guess how many have had 800 yards seasons in the last three years? 4. Pryor, Wallace, Decker and Watkins. Decker is a shell of himself with injuries. Wallace is 31. Watkins is going to get paid which defeats the purpose of cutting Bryant to save money at the WR spot.
That leaves Pryor. So let's not act like guys there are just a ton of guys out there that can give us 800+ yard seasons in FA.
EDIT: Marqise Lee as well. Frankly, I might have some interest in him.
