he wants to get paid. Do we want to overpay for him? I highly doubt it.

He's like a younger, faster Marty Booker. I'd definitely pay him over Berrian. The question is though, what are we willing to give up for him. I'd be content with a 2nd rounder from next year's draft and probably a 4th rounder.

He definitely has the talent to be a #1 in most systems.

A group of Boldin, Hester, Bradley, Davis sounds very good for the next 3-4 years.

Moot point as Arizona has said they're not trading him after Redskins offered them basically what they offered Cincy for Chad Johnson - a first rounder and third rounder that could turn into another first rounder should certain incentives be met.
Turn down for what?
