 Bradford Re-Signs with Texans Cory Bradford was targeted by the Lions and would have replaced Tai Streets. Given that he's no longer available - who do you like as a free agent WR to help the Lions?

I'd say Troy Brown. Just because of his versatility and he can be a "coach" to the young WRs. Otherwise, all the FAs right now suck. I'd say draft or June 1 cuts.

I'm telling you, I cannot overemphasize how smart it was to let this fish bite elsewhere. That was another FA bust waiting to happen.
Corey Bradford = Bill F. Schreoder
I agree with conversion: Draft or June 1 cuts.

Somehow landing the Ndamo-nator would be the second best day ever.

I agree with waiting. I wouldn't be surprised to see them take someone in the draft either in the second or third round, not that the third rounder would hold much promise.

I say Troy Brown AND a drrafted WR. Kircus, Vines and Hakim are not the answers. Hakim should be cut after June 1. I don't know what's going to happen with Swinton, but I wouldn't mind seeing the Lions keep him.
Possible third round draftees:
JR Russell
Courtney Roby
Terrence Murphy
Roscoe Parrish
All would be pretty damned good.

All would be pretty damned good. Why cut Hakim? Cutting him will only save $250,000 in cap space. May as well keep him for that rpice tag. Next year is the time cut Hakim where we will save about 3.2 mil.

I think Roscoe could be snagged as early as Rd 2. Russell could slip to 4, late 4 IMO. Best bang for the buck in Rd 3 would be Roby IMO.
